REAL RESULTS FROM THE FOUNDATION PROTOCOL
I love the simplicity of the program! I know exactly what to do for the workouts because of the app, all I have to do is tap to start. I don't have to guess what to do at the gym anymore. The best part is I get to eat food I love and I'm creating the body I'm proud to show my sons.
Working with Mr. Tromley has completely transformed not just my performance in the gym, but my overall lifestyle. His coaching has helped me dial in my nutrition, build real discipline, and gain confidence in both my body and my mindset. He's not just an incredible coach -- he's a genuine friend who truly cares about helping you become your best self.
I really like the fact that Coach Patrick practices what he preaches. Even when I'm unmotivated, I can login to the app and see that he is paying dues faithfully, sticking to the script, and the results show up. That alone is motivating.
