My training specialties for clients include: fat loss, weight loss, strength and conditioning, Olympic weight lifting, rehabilitation and corrective exercise, hypertrophy and muscle gain, sport specific training, marathon training, triathlon training, swimming and pool rehabilitation, stretching, balance and metabolic training, etc. I like to be able to help as many people as possible to reach and attain their goals. I love to train clients using different kinds of equipment depending on clients needs.

I love to change things up by being diverse in my programs all while having fun and being safe. An example of my training style includes the following: TRX, Bands, Kettlebells, Dynamax balls or slam balls, sand bags, Val slides, physioballs, barbells, body weight, free weight, etc. I want to be able to produce results but also have strong relationships with my clients because I believe training is not just physical but also psychological, social, emotional and spiritual.

Overall Philosophy
FIRST, DO NO HARM (Primum Non Nocere) I emphasize remedial motor control and movement patterns, cautiously progressing and expeditiously regressing the motor skills and movement prescriptions of my clients. This is all done through periodized training programs.
EDUCATION Instead of simply encouraging my clients to mindlessly follow orders during their training, I labor to teach them what they’re training and why they’re training the way we do.
HONOR GOD The Lord has been gracious to redeem me and save me from my sin and give me a new life. I want to use the passions, skills and desires he has given me to honor him and serve others.

Training Philosophy:
"TRAIN LIKE SPORT" My exercises and movements will often times be dynamic, with and against gravity, efficiently utilizing ground reaction forces and momentum, all of which are important variables in sports and human movement.
I TRAIN MOVEMENTS, RATHER THAN JUST MUSCLES Many injuries, both chronic and acute, are a result of faulty movement patterns. Therefore, I teach the foundations of proper movement patterns, allowing clients to safely progress to higher levels of training that is built upon efficient neuromuscular recruitment, as well as increased muscle mass and strength.
I DEVELOP HOLISTIC FITNESS POTENTIAL The Fitness 3:23 seeks to develop not only the quantitative variables of fitness such as fat loss, gain lean mass, endurance, strength, power, and speed, injury prevention and pain management but I also desire to facilitate more qualitative characteristics in my such as responsibility, integrity, courage, respect, love kindness, forgiveness and sacrifice to name a few.

Fitness 3:23

Inspired by the verse Colossians 3:23”What ever you do, work heartily as for the Lord and not for men.” This is for training clients as well as for my own fitness. We live and work for God. He is our Lord and Master and that is who we shall please in everything that we do. With this inspiration from the Word of God I can every time I train someone else or myself and know that I will have purpose.
