Philosophy

"Work Hard, Play Hard" I like to work with clients from all aspects of life and with a variety of needs and goals. As a trainer I challenge my clients to expect the unexpected. I believe that the potential for each individual is far beyond the limits we know to set for ourselves. My goal is to inspire, motivate, and push you toward your optimum fitness level. My experience ranges from post rehabilitation to collegiate athletes. I have worked extensively with individuals who suffer from knee, back, neck, and hip problems; while weight loss and strength goals tend to characterize most of my clientele. My most prominent experience lies in working with athletes and athlete hopefuls.

Along with training I have coached multiple sports and participated competitively in a large variety myself. I understand how the athlete's mind and body works. I am well versed in the movements and training required in aerobic endurance and speed/agility sports. My experience ranges from young athletes to mature adults, from the first time 5k runner to the Olympic trials hopeful. Again, variety is what keeps my passion alive. My workouts follow my life motto... work hard, play hard. In my experience people want an effective and efficient workout. I can appreciate a busy lifestyle as well as the desire to spend your free time playing not trying to get in shape. If you want to play hard you have to work hard and with me at your side that is certain to happen.
