Training philosophy

I want to give my clients the the knowledge and tools they need to be self sufficient so they can be successful in their fitness goals even without a trainer around.

A typical session

My sessions are tailored to the individual client. The first session will always be a very light and consist of visual assessments so I can make plan, and the learning breathing in exercises and stretches to prepare them for later sessions.

Client success story

I was hired by a client because he wanted to get in better shape and feel prepared to protect his family. I was able to work with him to build his strength and teach him the self defense skills necessary to protect his home.

Areas served

Showing 28 of 75 cities.

Outside training

When I'm not exercising and working, I enjoy video games, riding motorcycles, practicing at the shooting range, and spending time with pets.
