"Throughout my career as a strength and conditioning coach I have realized that most people do not take a comprehensive approach to their athletic development and fitness. Often time people focus one thing or the other and never really optimize their training. My approach is science based with the goal of long term athletic development and fitness. My goal is to educate you on all aspects of your training to ensure optimal results".
