Articles by Yusuf Paterson

"I have been lucky enough to have been in the fitness industry for nearly 10 years now.

Before that, I did a Master's degree in exercise and sport physiology. This really helped to develop my understanding of the science behind the principles of training and nutrition.

This has allowed me to run my own business called Principal Nutrition, where one of my main goals is to help people better understand nutrition so they can achieve their goals. 

I love what I do and am blessed to be able to do this!"
