TRAINING PHILOSOPHY:

My journey in the fitness field started right out of high school when I was lucky enough to get a job coaching the summer weight room program at Belle Plaine High School along with my former coaches. It was during that summer (and the following 2 as well) that I really developed my love for coaching and helping people to become better at whatever it is they are training for, whether it is for health or sport. My desire is to help people find a love for training and improve their daily lives through getting stronger and healthy.

Training Philosophy

I have been dedicated to physical fitness since my teenage years, gaining lots of valuable knowledge on achieving fitness goals efficiently and effectively. As we age, it’s crucial to maintain strong bones and muscles. Strength training is proven to improve not only your physical health but your mental health as well. I believe that anyone can reach their aspirations with a little hard work and a bit of stick-to-it-tive-ness. Whether you are just starting out or you have been at it for a while and just need a little help getting back on track, working with a personal trainer is a top-notch investment towards your well-being!
