The High Performance Health Program - By Andrew Marsham Reviews 

Over several years of coaching, Pavol has helped me become fitter, stronger and lighter, with more energy than ever before. I thought I was already well rounded, but his coaching has refined every aspect of my fitness and nutrition. I travel extensively and run my own business, so having an expert who knows how to make the most of every situation, however busy I am or wherever I happen to be, is invaluable. Pavol is exceptionally good at identifying the right approach for each circumstance. The accountability he provides also keeps me consistently motivated. I could not be more pleased with the results

I have been very pleased with the program. I have worked with several of the coaches, who have been great, but David Scott is truly outstanding. He is extremely knowledgeable, and he is able to rely his knowledge in an understandable way. He designs great programs that get excellent results.

I signed up for HPH over three months ago, and it has delivered above and beyond my expectations. The system works and I have (finally) integrated a holistic fitness and nutrition program into my life, after 20 years of struggling to do so, and relying on busyness to be my wellness program. The biggest reason this works for me is my coach, Steve Nesrallah. As a former Naval Officer, Steve understood I didn’t need another boot camp, top down approach. I needed encouragement and practical education about what works and why, and tips on how to maximize results. Steve is super easy to converse with, and I walk away feeling motivated and learning something, every time. His advice works! I am so impressed by his depth of knowledge on comprehensive fitness. Just really appreciate his approach. He cares a ton, keeps things real and always has me moving forward. As a result, I have seen great results and mostly, I am sticking with the program (big for me). I will definitely be recommending HPH and Steve to anyone looking to find a new, healthy equilibrium to help them sustain long term fitness, energy and health. Thank you so much!

I’m a sports medicine physician with extensive experience in biomechanics. I joined the program not because I don’t understand how best to eat, sleep, or train but because I was looking for help with organization, accountability, and an evidence-based approach to fitness that aligned with my goals. High Performance Health through the dedication of Scott provides exactly that. Weekly video conferences, daily texts, biometric feedback through wearable tech/apps, and regular re-evaluations with training updates helped me to lose 30lbs in the past 5 months and transform into a much stronger/leaner/healthier version of myself. I highly recommend this program for busy executives/professionals (with spouses and kids who play travel sports) or any body that values flexibility from their high-end training program.

I started working with Steve because I had reached a point where I looked in the mirror and thought, “How did this happen?” I was 210 lbs in October 2025 and, at 53, I did not want to accept that getting older meant getting heavier and less fit.

What I needed was structure, not a diet. Steve gave me a clear framework for tracking calories and macros, and the integration with MyFitnessPal was a huge help. I did not want someone handing me a menu. I wanted to understand what I was already eating, where I was going wrong, and how to make better decisions myself.

His coaching style has also been exactly right for me. He provides accountability without being annoying about it. He seems to know when to encourage me, when to give me a nudge, and when to basically tell me to stop complaining and get back to work. I did not want a drill sergeant or a babysitter. I wanted a coach, and that is what Steve has been.

One of the biggest things Steve has taught me is that fitness does not require being maniacal. You just have to be real and consistent. Discipline is not some magical quality that some people are born with and others are not. Most of the time, it is much simpler than that.

Steve has a line I come back to all the time: do not listen to the part of you that asks whether you feel like doing it. Who cares whether you feel like it? It is not really about feelings. You just do what you said you were going to do.

That mindset has been incredibly useful because it takes so much drama out of fitness. You do not need to be perfect. You do not need to be fired up every morning. You do not need to punish yourself for a bad meal or a missed workout. You just get back to it.

The workout programming has been just as valuable. I go into the gym knowing exactly what I am supposed to do instead of wasting time figuring it out. When an exercise has aggravated an injury, Steve has simply adjusted the programming so I could keep training rather than losing momentum.

Most importantly, the program feels sustainable. I travel, eat at restaurants, have a demanding job, and live a normal life. Steve has helped me build fitness around that reality instead of pretending life will somehow get out of the way.

I am now down 25 lbs 11 months later, significantly leaner, stronger, more energy, better sleep and in much better cardiovascular shape. More importantly, I feel like I finally understand how nutrition, strength training, and cardio fit together.

Steve has helped me stop thinking about fitness as a short-term project and start thinking about it as something I can manage for the rest of my life. I would recommend him without hesitation.

Personalized Coaching That Fits Real Life

James has been great to work with. He takes the time to understand my goals, my schedule, and what I’m physically capable of doing. He adjusts the plan when life gets busy or something isn’t working for me, but he still pushes me to make progress. It feels like coaching built around me rather than a standard program I’m expected to fit into.

His support goes beyond workouts and nutrition. He’s a great person to talk things through with and, at times, feels like a therapist as much as a coach. He listens, helps me work through setbacks, and keeps me focused without making me feel like one difficult week has undone everything.

James is also incredibly responsive. When I need to change plans or have a question come up at the last minute, he gets back to me quickly and helps me figure out what to do. That availability makes it much easier to stay consistent. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a coach who is invested in their progress and willing to adapt to what real life throws at them.

What makes this work for me? The program is structured with clear guidance on physical training and meal plan; it also includes flexibility to pivot when PT is affected by work and travel. Prior to working with my HPH Coach Scott, that was my barrier to weight loss and a healthy lifestyle - but with his support I’m on a path to losing weight sustainably and getting stronger and much healthier. I recommend HPH to anyone who is burdened with difficult work schedules that impact Fitness activities or struggles to ID a rational weight management program. Losing weight and getting stronger!

I have had an excellent experience working with Coach Scott at The High Performance Health Program. Having a personal trainer understand your goals and then create a program for your fitness, health, and diet is incredibly helpful. I have noticed improvements in my fitness, energy levels, endurance, and overall well-being. Highly recommend this high ROI program!

I have had an excellent experience so far with this program. When I started just over 8 weeks ago my trainer (Pavol) said that this program always gets results. I have seen these results so far with a steady drop in weight, improved fitness and body composition.
What I like about this program is that it is very practical and holistic. It focusses on nutrition (Protein bias), monitoring, strength training, and movement through steps with a weekly virtual accountability check-in. All of this is done via a fantastic APP that tracks all of the above, including sleep and body measurements. There are also "chit-sheets" that come out via email and Linkedin that educate with simple messages.
The weekly check-in with Pavol has been excellent too. He provides the right blend of encouragement with education and motivation.

I've been working with Steve as my High Performance Health coach for 12 weeks now, and overall the experience has been solid. He's given me clear direction on caloric intake and protein targets, and the workout programming has kept me engaged and making progress. He's kept me accountable throughout the past 12 weeks, and he's quick with positive feedback when I hit my numbers or stay consistent, which helps keep motivation up.

Since nothing is ever perfect, the one area I'd like to see him lean into more with me in particular is pushing a bit harder on that accountability — calling out specific deficiencies directly when I'm not staying on track or making the progress we both feel I should. A bit more directness when I'm falling short would help me course-correct faster.

Overall, solid coaching with clear nutrition and training guidance and consistent accountability over the past 12 weeks — just want more of the tough-love, "here's exactly where you're falling short" style pointed at me when I need it.

More Than a Trainer — An Investment in My Life

I first became familiar with High Performance over a year ago when I met founder Andrew Marsham while researching an employee benefit program for our company. At the end of May, I decided it was time to make an investment in my own health and began working with Scott Ludwig.

When I started, I weighed approximately 185 pounds with 29.7% body fat. My energy level was extremely low, and I was coming back from a fractured hip. I set some pretty aggressive goals: get down to 160 pounds, ultimately reach 20% body fat, improve my strength and mobility, and, most importantly, do everything I can to live a healthy, active life to 100.

Today I'm at 167 pounds and 24.2% body fat, and we're not finished.

What makes Scott exceptional is that he isn't simply my trainer, he's my accountability partner. He pays attention to how I'm doing physically, knows when to push me and when my body is telling us to ease off, and continually modifies my workouts based on my progress, schedule and what keeps me engaged. He actually asks what I like and don't like about the programs he designs and changes them accordingly. That may sound simple, but it makes an enormous difference when you're looking forward to going to the gym instead of dreading another repetitive workout.

Our work has also gone far beyond the hour I spend exercising. I've become much more conscious of getting at least 150 grams of protein each day, striving for 10,000 steps, eliminating alcohol, and paying attention to the other areas of my health that I had been putting off. During this journey I've addressed my testosterone levels, been tested for sleep apnea and am now addressing it, and become much more proactive about staying on top of my overall medical health.

Scott doesn't take credit for those decisions, and he shouldn't. But having someone holding me accountable, encouraging me and genuinely caring about my progress has helped create the momentum that made me want to take greater responsibility for all aspects of my health.

And that's probably the biggest change of all. I'm more motivated today than I was when we started. I want to get to 160 pounds. I want to reach 20% body fat. I want to continue getting stronger and healthier. And then I want to see what's possible after that.

Along the way, Scott has also become someone I consider a friend. I genuinely believe he cares about whether I succeed.

If someone asked me whether working with Scott Ludwig is worth the money, my answer would be very simple:

I feel like Scott has helped add years to my life. I don't know how you put a dollar amount on that. To me, it's priceless.

Five stars for Scott Ludwig and High Performance.

The big difference between this and other programs is the accountability and flexibility. The weekly check-ins with my trainer, Steve Nesrallah, push me to complete the workouts and log my meals, even on days when before I might have made and excuse not to. And he has been great about diet suggestions and adding body weight only routines when I'm traveling and there is no exercise equipment. I'm in the best shape I've been in years and it is still early days.

I joined the program in April after failing too many times on my own, determined to finally get back in shape. This program provided the exact structure, education, and accountability I desperately needed.

My coach, Scott, has been a perfect match. He makes my health goals feel completely attainable through highly detailed workouts and custom diet adjustments. Since I use a home gym with basic equipment, I love that this program proves you don't need an expensive gym membership to get incredible results.

Scott and I connect weekly via Zoom and message constantly through the app. This isn’t a "one-and-done" template; it’s a fluid, evolving process tailored entirely to my progress. Thanks to his instruction, I’ve lost 20 pounds in just over 4 months and am closing in on 15% body fat. My diet is clean, my sleep is great, and my motivation is higher than ever as we transition into my next phase: packing on lean muscle.

This is truly a concierge service and a smart investment in long-term health and wellness. I cannot recommend Scott and the program enough!

Before joining the High Performance Health program, the demands of my career had completely derailed my fitness, leaving me constantly fatigued and struggling to find balance . Andrew and his coaching team provided the exact intervention I needed by creating a highly personalized, data-driven plan with exceptional weekly accountability that seamlessly adapted to my busy schedule. Thanks to their unwavering support, I not only dropped stubborn body fat and rebuilt my physical strength, but I also completely revitalized my daily energy levels and sleep quality. I highly recommend this program to any busy professional looking to take the guesswork out of their routine; it is a truly life-changing investment in your long-term health and performance.

Since beginning the hype performance program, I’ve seen significant improvement in all aspects of my health. I’m not an athlete, rather a 70-year-old recently retired physician. After years of putting patients first, I realized it was time to really work on my general health. This program is everything it claims to be. At the heart of the program is the trainer/coach check-ins that occur weekly. My coach David is everything I would’ve hoped for and it’s the glue that makes the program work for me. He is professional, encouraging, attentive, and listens. I’ve never found him judgmental; he pushes me when I need to be pushed and commiserates with me if I’m having issues. The program is dynamic and my coach David is key to make it happen. Based on my feedback he adjust my program through the app and generally has my personalized program updated within 30 minutes of our check-in.

The program itself runs through the app which is excellent. It app has the ability to pull in your personal vital statistics from things like an Apple Watch or other health monitoring devices that you can wear these days allowing you to monitor your progress. You can even download pictures of yourself to see your physical appearance changes.

As a primary physician who provided general health guidance for years (I’m a pediatrician so my guidance was based on a different age group), I can affirm that the program is health science based. I have been impressed by how well the program conforms to best practices as I review and compare the program to my own ongoing review of health routines and recommendations for my age group. A 70-year-old goals and needs are different than a 15 or 20 or 30 year-old etc.. I feel that David does an excellent job tailoring and tweaking the program for me using my goals, performance reporting and age.

The app is easy to negotiate and impressively complete. It has nutritional guidance and includes a daily caloric counter based on self reporting and also includes a large library of known entrées with embedded calorie counts. We all know nutrition is the fuel that runs us and helps me work on my weight reduction. It has daily meal selections to help one eat well and a specific again to your taste and needs. I’ve chosen to work off a more Mediterranean diet and my daily meal recommendations reflect this.

The app’s calendar is easy to manipulate and report for both meals and physical routines which change daily. The exercise routines are well mapped out and are complemented with videos showing you proper motion and technique, which is key when beginning a new exercise routine. Once you have the routine down, you simply follow the routine and either check off the boxes as complete or you can detail specifics of your routine with a number of reps and resistance used as appropriate allowing detailed progress of weights, reps and resistance. In the calendar mode, the app allows you to review your weekly routine by day and allows you to flip days if your week demands still giving you the ability to maintain heavy, light and recovery days providing consistency for maximum results.

I love how well the program is tailored to my needs. My daily routine includes mobility, stretch and balance that address my needs as a 70-year-old. Then, depending on the day of the week, the daily task will emphasizing weight training, resistance and/or aerobics to help me with my cardiac health and endurance. In my case, I have access to a recumbent bike rowing treadmill so my routines incorporate these pieces of equipment. The program also has alternatives for me to complete when I’m on the road or out of town to meet the same goals.

Now,a little more about my coach, David. First and foremost, he listens to me, giving me suggestions for improvement, encouragement to continue on and alternatives when I need them to do life situations such as being out of town or having medical issues set me from my daily routine. David wants me to succeed which stimulates me to want to push myself and work harder, which is what you want from a coach. He’s also basically a really good guy. If I slack, he’s likely to let me know. He’s also clear about non-negotiable for my success. He’s never been judgemental, which is key for me.

Everyone has the reasons for signing up to a program like this. At the end of the day is up to you to take advantage of the program which clearly incorporates all the tools one needs to be successful while incorporating all the best practices I can find. If you choose to sign up ask for David. I’m sure all the coaches are excellent, but I can only attest to mine. —

I’ve had the pleasure of training with David for just about one year. In that time, I’ve lost 12 pounds but more importantly, I’ve made material improvements to my strength, flexibility and overall stamina. Unlike other programs that I have tried in the past, David has designed a program that is specifically tailored to my fitness goals and schedule. The program is sustainable and lends itself to a busy work schedule.

David and I regularly discuss my fitness goals and specific areas that need to be targeted. The workouts he has designed for me are challenging and often address areas that I have neglected over time. He also modifies the workouts roughly every 8 weeks to continue to challenge me.

David is always willing to adjust on the fly. If I am going to be traveling or on vacation, he will design a series of workouts that can be done in a hotel gym or on the beach.

Perhaps the best aspect of working with David is the accountability component. We meet weekly to review my workouts, meals I have tracked, and any changes that are needed to improve performance. This aspect of the program is critical - at least for me.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly the direction I needed

Before joining High Performance Health, I was stuck in a rut — I knew I needed to get in better shape as I got older, but I didn't have a clear plan for exercise or nutrition, and every time I tried something on my own it fizzled out after a few weeks.

Working with my coach changed that completely. They took the guesswork out of it — building a program that actually fit my schedule and starting point, and holding me accountable when motivation dipped. The nutrition guidance was just as valuable as the workouts; small, sustainable changes instead of a crash diet I'd never stick to.

Now months in, I'm stronger, leaner, and have noticeably more energy day to day. Just as important, I've built habits I can actually keep long-term instead of another short-lived fitness kick.

If you're a guy who wants to get serious about your health but doesn't know where to start, I'd genuinely recommend High Performance Health. Having a coach in your corner who truly cares makes all the difference.

I’ve been working with Pavol at HPH for several years now. Their program has helped me to become more consistent and balanced with my workouts and eating habits. Most programs stress one change of behavior where this one stresses nutrition, strength training and cardio. For me, it took this combination to get to the level that I’m at now with a consistent weight, improved strength and better cardio. I highly recommend this program for anyone that wants to maintain an active lifestyle well into their retirement years.

Before joining HPH, I had lost 30#, and was working out pretty regularly. I had completely stalled in my weight loss, and felt like I was making no progress in my training. I knew I needed some real structure and accountability. Insert HPH, and Steve Nesrallah. Since then, I’m down another 15#, and have started to redefine what my body looks like at 50 years old. I’m currently in the best shape of my life(that I can remember) and cannot wait to see what the next chapter looks like. I’m 9 months in with HPH, and I have not regretted in for a second. I highly recommend this program, if you truly want to change your life.

This has been a life changer. I had stagnated at the same weight and come to resign myself. I’m 64 and I started this program to help maintain my mobility so I could play with my grandkids. But without noticing it has changed my activity patterns and my dietary habits. I’m down almost 30 lbs since starting a year ago. And no plans to stop here!!!
