Sports Training Specialist

I played sports all throughout high school playing football, wrestling and track. I was constantly in the weight room doing different workouts designed to break through our plateaus. I went on to play football at a collegiate level at Wittenberg University where the workout regime was amplified (x10). I played football for a brief period before realizing it wasn't for me. Soon after I met some people in the gym doing crossfit and started my crossfit journey. Pushing through and breaking through even more barriers. Soon after I joined the rugby team, which was even more physical and brutal than football. I even boxed on an amateur level for a brief period. All the exercises for these sports required different mindsets, different tempos and different focuses on certain muscle groups. Personal training to me is more than just something you do; it is a lifestyle. In order for us to harness the full potential that resides deep down within, we have to do that with our mind, body and spirit. In high school, I struggled to break through those barriers, mentally and physically so that I could rise to a whole new level. After college, I was inspired by this to become a coach to harness that fire within and rise like the phoenix! I knew what it was like to be chained by your own mind - to see all of your potential, but feel like you aren't able to reach it. The true path to freedom begins with honoring ourselves and these incredible bodies that we have. The fire that burns deep within us can become trapped and we must go through the fire before we can find it within us. I knew that becoming a personal trainer was the next step to build a foundation that would create an everlasting structure, extending not only to me, but everyone else in my life. Becoming a personal trainer has helped me bring everything full circle and become the man that I knew I could be.
