I have the best job in Cedar Rapids. Since 2000 I’ve been transforming my clients into more fit and healthier versions of themselves. As a qualified Exercise Physiologist and Personal Fitness Trainer, I can help you manage chronic conditions or injuries, lose weight, build muscle, or simply get into better shape. I believe that looking after your body is just about the most important thing you can do for yourself.

My personal training studio -- and online services -- focus on custom one-on-one training and guidance to fit your needs, without the distractions found in gyms or dealing with annoying apps.

I CAN HELP WITH YOUR UNIQUE REQUIREMENTS
GET FIT FAST
Everyone is unique, and has various abilities when it comes to physical activity. This could be anything from having an old injury that limits range of motion on a particular exercise to novice understanding on proper movement patterns. A Personal Trainer that has years of practical experience and the ability to program correctly, can help an individual progress towards their own unique goals.

Initial consultations are free (via Zoom).

PERSONAL FITNESS TRAINING - IT'S EDUCATIONAL
One of the primary reasons that someone should have a Personal Fitness Trainer is to learn how to perform exercises effectively. If you are not correctly executing a movement pattern, you increase the risk of injury. As a personal trainer, I can help you make important changes in your lifestyle habits that can lead to greater success when combined with exercise. Many individuals get stuck in an exercise loop. They will go to the gym and perform the same exercises with the same weight week after week. This leads absolutely no where, and many individuals get frustrated with the lack of progress. As a personal trainer, I can help familiarize you with concepts such as linear progression, concurrent progression, and adequate training volume. Knowledge is key to workout progression and achieving goals.
