Bigger, Stronger, Faster What Attendees of Ashley’s Recent Rugby Conditioning Lecture in Sydney Said:

“I first saw Ashley speak circa 1991, not only was he a dynamic and 'warm/affable' Lecturer, he was one of the most knowledgeably speakers I had ever seen. Fast forward to 2012, what has changed? Well I didn't think he could improve on what had gone before...not so, he is even more knowledgeable! He has also kept abreast with the times (whilst keeping his fundamental values) and his expertise is now greater and has a broader bass. Put quite simply....don't miss this, you'll be behind the times if you do!” - Clive Rodell, owner Clive's Quality Training.
