FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We'll start with a conversation so I can learn more about you. For in-person clients, this will be at Innovative Strength & Conditioning so you can get an idea of what the gym is like (hint: it's awesome). We'll go through some staple movement patterns so I can get an idea of how your body moves to ensure that I program exercises that match your fitness level. I start all new clients on a food photo journal so I can get an idea of what your nutrition looks like throughout the day and offer suggestions. We can discuss diving into tracking macros using MacrosFirst in order to learn more about nutrition and how to be able to take a balanced approach when it comes to your food. I'll then create a program that is tailored to your needs and preferences -- all you need to do is show up!
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
The person I was dating at the time signed me up for the gym on my 20th birthday because I wanted to work out with them. Turns out, I really liked getting stronger and seeing my muscles! From there, I dove deep into researching all things fitness and started working at the gym. In 2013 I got my Personal Trainer certification through NASM and have continued to learn and grow over the last decade.
- What types of customers have you worked with?
I work with men and women of all ages with some combination of a few goals… - Fat loss - Muscle gain - Strength - Improved relationship with food - Improved health markers - Better understanding of nutrition - Needing accountability Most people know WHAT they need to do to achieve the results they want, but feel lost on HOW to make it happen. Together, we create a productive, realistic strategy so you can not only reach the results you’re after but sustain them long-term. My job is to help you become more efficient in the gym and have a better understanding of nutrition that will get better results in less time, all while understanding the “why” behind each step.
