About Weight-Loss and Nutrition Specialist

Have you always wanted a personal trainer, but can't afford the costly services offered at the gym?

Hiring an independent personal trainer means that I can charge you much less than a commercial gym would, while providing the same, if not better results.

I offer the following services:

* Weight-loss, toning, muscular size/strength development, cross-fit training, TRX suspension training, cardiovascular conditioning (i.e. 5k, 10k, half-marathon, marathon conditioning), powerlifting, sport-specific nutrition and more.
* Personal training is offered in-home
* Personal training is offered outdoors
* Sport-specific or event-specific nutritional guidelines.
* Maternal & Infant nutrition guidelines.
* Personal training in a commercial gym facility also available (discounted gym membership provided)


Combined weight loss across 40 clients of over 1000lbs and counting.


Qualified, Educated, Goal-oriented.

    Andy is awesome, so happy he responded to my request for a personal trainer. He comes to my house, well prepared, routine organized and also very reasonable as far as pricing. I know after a few months of working with him (a day or two a week) I have noticed a definite difference in my physical appearance. I was approximately 10lbs over weight and looking to firm up. I would highly recommend. He is also very knowledgeable about your diet. What to eat and not to eat. Very helpful. Great Job Andy.
