About Me - Rob Solly
fortunate to train with amazing new and different people in priveleged environments, I also had to learn to improvise as life on the road wasn't always conjusive to the perfect training conditions. Consequently I learnt to appreciate the constraints of time and space in order to maximise my training. So if you've only got limited time to train I understand that it's precious and we need to get the most of it. I have dedicated much of my life to various athletic endeavours, experimented with food science and the impact of nutrition on performance, practiced yoga, fought MMA, studied pad holding and bio-hacked myself to see how I can be optimised.
Having immersed myself in this for over 20 years, I feel it is time to share what I've learnt. I will help optimise you and consider my task to be to get the very best out of you.

I have been GM Frank Massars Taekwondo student for the past 23 years and presently hold a third dan black belt under his association.
Throughout my twenties I was in a band which toured extensively. Health and
and personal fitness remained important to me and whilst on occasions I was
