Personal Training

I have been ICS certified in nutrition and fitness since 1996, and ACE certified in personal training since 1997. I have experience as a natural bodybuilder and trained for competitions in the late 1990’s. I have also judged several natural bodybuilding competitions in the Midwest . I have been involved in the world of bodybuilding for about 15 years in some way or another either thru competitions, judging, photographing contestants, working with pre-contest nutrition and training of bodybuilders, fine tuning posing routines, etc.

I specialize in nutrition, and rehab for old injuries in my clients. I want my clients to have the best quality of life regardless of their physical limitations. In addition, I promote healthy eating and an active lifestyle for all those that I train.

I love working with preteens to improve their self image and help them to see their true self. Working out regularly and eating nutritional foods are a big lifestyle change that should start at an early age. This is why I feel it is necessary for me to work with young people before they develop unhealthy habits. For the past 3 years, I have worked with a group of local competitive dancers, teaching strength and conditioning in group classes and in individual instruction. The experience has been very rewarding and has helped them in their efforts to achieve national recognition at dance competitions.

I have trained several women who competed in running events, biking events across Kansas, and mountain hiking (Pike’s Peak and Mount Everest). I’ve gotten men into shape that were interested in enlisting in the Navy and Army National Guard. I have experience in training for various sports, and have worked with the physically challenged as a Special Olympics coach for 5 years. My client base ranges from 8 years of age to 91 years young!
