Coach

I remember I benched 370 for 1 rep at 185 body weight. That was a big accomplishment. I then knew I wanted to help people accomplish their fitness goals. Just knowing I could help somebody with the little things could make a big difference. I also have met a lot of the big names in the fitness industry, just networking around and they are so welcoming and respectful which makes me love it more.

Qualifications

I got my associates degree in Information Technology. I also got my NASM Certification in Fitness Health.

About Coach

I’ve always been a go getter growing up through sports, the gym, etc. I’ve always loved the feeling of proving people wrong, the motivation I get from it, the integrity, and the dopamine release you get from it. It’s addicting, not just not those things but knowing your worth as a whole and what you are truly capable of doing is what is addicting when you figure that out. The gym has always been a special place for me. I’ve learned more about myself in the gym than I have anywhere else when it comes to life itself, pushing through when things get tough. The gym isn’t just some facility with lifting equipment. It’s more than that. It’s a place to release your emotions and come together with yourself,  mentally and physically. It’s an addicting feeling, knowing you just worked your body out, feeling great, stress free for the time being. The gym wasn’t a thing I thought I would be attached to growing up. I was a scrawny kid with a big head. I got pushed around a bit in sports, I won’t lie. The gym became my life freshman year of high school and just having the confidence every day proud of how I look and who I was as a person pushed me to do better. I then went on to make the LCL All Star basketball team my senior year which was a big accomplishment for me. Just knowing I worked my butt off to get there was what kept my head up proud.

Turning Point

I think the biggest enemy to everybody is the “doubt” factor in their life. Anybody can have goals and dreams, but they let the “doubt” in their mind hold them back. It’s super easy to stay in the comfort zone or have the mindset of “I doubt it’ll workout, so I’m happy and content where I am.” I like to call the comfort zone the danger zone. It’s so hard to get out of that state of mind with yourself. I remember the day I said to myself “I’m gonna do this because I need to and I want the best for myself.” At the end of the day, we all die at some point, and knowing that you’re going to leave this earth one day should be the biggest motivation to make the hard and easy choices in your life. If you are considering starting to workout or questioning if you should. I can say with ease, treat your body. Your body shows up every day for you, why don’t you show up for it now? What’s stopping you?

Motivation & Passion

My purpose in coaching is to give the best possible advice on form, nutrition, short and long term goals. My purpose is to hold you accountable and give you the best chance to achieve those goals in a fun manner in the gym.
