"One of the many reasons why Thomas Phillips is a great trainer is the fact that he is a great student. He is always hungry for more information to improve his own training and his clients. In addition to his contagious enthusiam and competitive drive, Tom gets even more excited about getting results for his clients. He is not the kind of trainer that will watch the clock while you work with him or waste time with chit chat. He is too focused on making sure that you get results. I recommend his services highly and you will too." Mike Mahler , Strength Coach, Senior RKC and author of "The Kettlebell Solution For Size And Strength. "

"After Thomas humbly defeated me at a competition I had the opportunity to get to know him a little better. Tom's knowledge and accomplishments far outstrip his ego.

After 25 years in fitness I only bother listening to people that can "walk their talk", and Tom can."

I can think of no higher compliment than that Thomas Phillips is somebody who walks the walk, not just talks the talk. Other trainers who never put themselves on the line, whether it's on the platform or the presentation stage, risking looking like an idiot if he or she screws up, does not fill me with any confidence. Tom, you have my confidence. I can ask you a question on raw powerlifting, kettlebells, or bodyweight work and the answer won't just be theory or guesswork. It will personally be lived and experienced.
Jack Reape (Elite powerlifter)
   

Thomas Phillips is an inspiration to me. With a booming business, a beautiful family (2 beautiful kids, and his beautiful wife), a top notch fitness facility and most of all, Tom "Walks the walk"!
Tom is always striving to set the example of a healthy lifestyle for his clients, his friends, his trainers and other professionals in his arena. Simply being around Tom is enough to get your motivation and energy levels up a few notches. I am proud to be a friend and colleague of Tom and I encourage anyone who has the opportunity to work with Tom to do so ASAP!
In strength,

My name is Charlie Weingroff, and I am the Director of Sports Therapy at CentraState Medical Center in Freehold, NJ and the former Strength & Conditioning Coach for the Philadelphia 76ers in the NBA.

As a competitive powerlifter, the community of co-athletes is tightly knit, and upon moving back to New Jersey, I became acquainted with Thomas Phillips and his staff. In getting to know Thomas and his staff, I am pleased to say that they "get it." While this compliment may seem minor, it is perhaps the best compliment I can give to a fellow practitioner.

Where doctors, therapist, and trainers have such a poor grasp of what it is truly important and effective in rehabbing and training individuals, those that "get it" are few and far between. Thomas "gets it," and the results he achieves with his clients clearly demonstrate this.
