Duke Men's Basketball Coach
Scott, thanks for being on our team. You've been a big help!

Jay Bilas, ESPN basketball commentator
Scott, I've just finished reading your book and think it's fantastic. It's a great motivating, achievement-oriented book that's straightforward and easy to understand and implement. You've done a great job on this ... very well done!

 

Matthew Lyons, Partner
Andrews & Kurth, LLP
Scott's program has had a major positive impact on my health and work. Improving my eating habits and committing to 3 hours of weekly fitness training is one of the best investments I've made.

Elizabeth Schmidt, professional tennis player
For me, working with Scott is more than just lifting weights, doing agility training or running hills. He's customized his YBYL program so that it's specific to reaching my goals on the tennis court and keeps those goals at the forefront of our training. His attention to detail, positive encouragement and motivation is helping both my mind and body get stronger. I know that with Scott's coaching off the court, I will achieve more on the court! Thanks for your help, Scott.

 

Kristi Tonn, Duke track athlete
Scott has customized eating and exercise programs for me that have really helped me as a sprinter. I've become stronger and more competitive athletically and have also developed new, healthy habits to guide me throughout my life. Thanks!

 

Jan Daley, Software Engineer
Since becoming Scott's client, I've lost weight, increased strength and cardiovascular fitness, and have decreased stress levels. Scott is a great motivator who strives to understand his client's lifestyle and fitness needs and works with them to develop a program geared towards their goals.
Alan Buhler, Entrepreneur
With Your Body, Your Life, you don't have to be hungry. Most people are skeptical of this, but it's true! With this program, you get to eat more than you think. And, the more weight you lose, the easier it is to keep going.

Sheila Cheng, world-class marathoner
I firmly believe that cross training, especially resistance training, does help running. Improving flexibility will help prevent injuries. I also firmly believe that running alone will not make you an overall fit person. That's why I train with Scott who helps me achieve overall fitness. If you gain strength without gaining weight, that is definitely a plus in running. And the weaker you are to begin with (most women), the more you will benefit from strength training.

Scott, I can't tell you how much I appreciate all your support and kindness. You have proven to me that in just one year anything's possible. Your strong words of encouragement and enthusiasm are what keep me motivated. Thanks for everything you have done to change my life. We make a great team together.
