Fitness equipment can be intimidating, exercise selection is overwhelming, and we all have a story. Losing 60 pounds was one of the most exciting parts of my story. Now I know it's true that you can turn your stress into joy, aches into strength, and setbacks into comebacks. Gonna yell: please note that YOU DO NOT HAVE TO “GET INTO SHAPE” BEFORE YOU MEET WITH A TRAINER. That would be like calling for an Uber, only to have the driver tell you to walk 2 miles in their direction before they pick you up. I meet you where you are now.
I have experience with those who are:
Overweight
Underweight
Recovering from an injury
Prenatal/Postnatal
Living with chronic pain
Enduring Fatigue
New to exercise
Advanced in exercise
Facing a military readiness physical test
Teenage athletes
Elderly
I prioritize:
Injury prevention because you can't meet your goals if you keep getting hurt
Reducing or eliminating joint paint in your back, knees, hips, elbows, etc.
Intelligent movement based on science
Sustainable, approachable, and effective exercises to maximize your results
I encourage:
Movement in-between sessions (I am happy to provide additional “DIY” workouts for in-between your scheduled sessions)
Getting real with your *very* limited time budget
Honoring your rest when you’re sick
Taking incremental steps towards your improved nutrition (striving for progress, not perfection)
