Common Questions

Yes. The majority of my clients have been beginner and intermediate lifters who had little to no experience with professional coaching.

I will teach you the principles of exercise science and show you what proper form looks and feels like, setting you up for better results and long-term progress than if you had winged it alone.

Likely yes, but it depends on how advanced you are.

Elite performance is not my expertise, so if your goals involve competing in powerlifting, stepping onto a bodybuilding stage, or crushing your next Ironman, then I will be the first to tell you we're not a good fit.

Finding ways to train around pain and injury is one of my greatest strengths. I've overcome a great deal of joint pain myself, and I have helped hundreds of clients with back pain, arthritis, injuries, surgeries, etc.

Exercise is great for reducing pain, so long as you do it intelligently: we never push through joint pain. I adjust, regress, or substitute movements in your program as needed to keep you training pain-free.

No. I build your program with what's available to you, and I relish the challenge of writing someone a great program with limited equipment.

You'd be surprised by how much we can do with nothing but some space for bodyweight movements and a pull-up bar in your door frame. I can also help you piece together equipment over time, with whatever your space and budget allows, so you can make the most of your investment.

I handle all my payments through Stripe invoices, which are sent to your email. You don't need to sign up for any accounts, and every common form of payment is accepted.

It's important to me that you never feel locked into long-term training before you know what it's like to work with me, so I never offer more than 12 weeks' worth of training to new clients.

If something unexpected comes up before your package ends, say a medical emergency that leaves you unable to train for some time, I'm happy to pause and extend our training for however long you're out.

Ending our working relationship is as simple as telling me you don't plan to renew, and then I'm happy to share final recommendations and advice to ensure your continued success going forward!
