Joe Buckton, Professional Wrestler
My primary goals before starting with PRISM Nutrition were to look better aesthetically, to improve my education and mindset regarding food and nutrition and to maintain performance.
Given the nature of my job as a professional wrestler, I noticed that over the years my anxiety towards food and dieting was getting worse and worse. In the past, I had been able to be strict with my diet yet the more rigid I became with my food choices the greater paranoia I experienced. I constantly wondered whether or not I was doing the right thing, second guessing myself and my progress. At that point, I knew I needed help, support and guidance with my diet and nutrition, otherwise it was going to take over, both physically and mentally.
I came across Kevin and PRISM Nutrition via a local Google search here in Nottingham. I eventually decided to bite the bullet and give him a call. After our initial conversation, I knew I had made the right decision going forward.
One of the key aspects of the service that appealed to me was having a support system in place. In essence, I needed someone I could be totally honest with, someone I could lay my cards out on the table with, without being judged. What’s more, I also wanted to learn more about food and nutrition and to steer away from this ‘good’ or ‘bad’ mindset. Previously, I had been known to restrict certain foods from my diet entirely (I had avoided bread for years!). Having the confidence to adopt a more flexible approach was a huge learning curve for me and something that I still need time to get used to.
In order for me to achieve long-term my goal(s), I like to follow guidelines that are set for me and to feel like I’m constantly working towards something. Thankfully, PRISM were able to design a personalised strategy to help me overcome my previous concerns around food and help me towards attaining my body composition and performance-related goals.
The best part for me is having a coach I can talk to and break things down with when I do begin to feel negative about my progress. Following the initial 12-week service, I am able to be more rational when it comes to food choices, having a support network in place has helped me greatly! For me it is a long-term gradual process, but trusting in PRISM Nutrition has been a big thing. Having someone I can be totally honest with, and not feel like I am being judged or made to feel stupid has been key to my success thus far. So much so that I am continuing as an on-going client and setting new goals for the future.
All in all, I would highly recommend PRISM nutrition, to anyone! Whether you are looking simply to lose weight, or if you are an athlete looking for added guidance towards the look you want, I cannot put this service forward enough.
