He already knew who he was as he\u2019s an avid Guildford Flames fan. Our son was on an ice hockey camp at the time and was lucky enough to take part in some strength and conditioning sessions with Rupe each day. He enjoyed it so much he asked to do some more work with him, so we contacted him direct.\u00a0<\/span>\n\nWe\u2019re really pleased with his progress and seeing the difference it makes to him on ice. He pushes himself hard both in his gym sessions and in the training homework he gets for in between personal training sessions. As parents we find Rupe to be a mentor as well as a trainer, he engages with our son well. He encourages our son to be the best he can be. Rupe is knowledgeable and we feel very comfortable knowing he is ensuring safety when lifting weights and working on his strength and conditioning.
