My favorite client story
I trained one client to run her first half marathon. She came to me with no prior running experience and a resolution to run a half marathon. Not only did she get stronger incorporating regular strength training into her program but I worked with her to manage her diet and she lost 20 pounds. I helped her overcome her doubts about her abilities and along the way we had fun too. She finished her race strong and with confidence. She had such an enjoyable and memorable experience she ran two more half marathons later that year!
My favorite exercise
The deadlift, any variation. This is one of the absolute best exercise that anyone should be doing! It challenges the entire body from legs, glutes, upper back, core and even balance.
My training philosophy
I believe in training smarter rather than harder. That means using scientifically proven methods to deliver results. I also believe in listening to my clients to understand their individual needs, concerns and limitations.
