ENDURANCE RACING IS A TEAM SPORT.

“I have really enjoyed the sessions and Luke’s ability to adapt to my circumstances in terms of injury and also training load. I have definitely learnt some new techniques and also strength exercises and also the ability to do some of these on my own which has been great.

I definitely feel stronger both physically and mentally from the stuff we have done but also talked about. Going into an event knowing that I have done these sessions gives me confidence not only physically but also the mental side of it.

I would definitely recommend Luke and his training methods, as I have done to other athletes.”

I've definitely felt stronger as an endurance based athlete especially taking on one of the hardest events in the country at the Buffalo Stampede Sky Marathon. I don’t think my legs would’ve survived going up and down those mountains. But also gave me great confidence to tackle on more events further down the track.

It's definitely made myself more bulletproof and robust to tackle on any endurance based event with confidence knowing the foundations have been layered down.

I definitely recommend Evolve Human Performance programming to help endurance based athletes achieve their full potential to better themselves in the long run.”

“Luke has completely transformed my capacity for training and competing as an endurance athlete. Having had endless injuries in the years prior to working with Luke, the shift to a strength and conditioning approach has been monumentally rewarding.

I’ve been able to tackle longer distances and build muscle without sacrificing speed and performance. The knowledge and support I’ve received has been excellent and has helped me stay motivated to improving as a hybrid athlete across running and lifting.

I’d recommend Luke to anyone looking to improve their approach to training as a lifestyle.”

One of the specific reasons for beginning strength training was to reduce injures and niggles caused by running. It was noticeable within the first few weeks that these ‘niggles’ significantly reduced which in turn allowed me to run more often and feel better doing so. I would highly recommend Luke as a coach, especially for endurance athletes looking to develop strength and reduce potential injury. Luke’s knowledge of the body and exercises to address specific goals is outstanding.

Initially, I had doubts about whether this program was the right fit for me, given that I'm not particularly an endurance athlete. However, my reservations quickly dissolved after our initial conversation. I was genuinely relieved that I reached out because Luke's expertise and recommendations closely paralleled those of sports doctors and physiotherapists I had consulted in the past.

While my initial expectation was for Evolve to improve running strength, I soon realised that it offered so much more. It became a catalyst for training smarter and allowed me to still do the things that i enjoy.

Over the past couple of months, I've seen a significant reduction in my back pain, enabling me to run three times a week. As the 8-week program progressed, my mobility improved along with the fear i had associated lifting weights and injuring myself.

At the conclusion of the block, my body was feeling great! I was almost pain free, something i haven't achieved in years. My body felt ready to run on run days and i was recovering well from each session. Luke's attention to detail and wealth of experience in this field were instrumental in ensuring our success. I would definitely recommend Luke. He offers a structured approach that provides the assurance of moving in the right direction.

I'm looking forward to working with Luke again shortly and genuinely excited to see what happens next!
