I have been fascinated with exercise my whole life. 

I begged my parents to let me go to the gym when I was little, and they bought me my first gym membership when I was 12.

The fascination did not ease. I read fitness magazines, Arnold Schwarzenegger's The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding, and soaked up everything I could from the old timers at the gym who were very generous with their knowledge.

Training for the 100 meter hurdles in high school track only made me want to learn more. 

In college, I learned how to be a personal trainer from the best of the best while employed at University Recreation, the biggest gym I had ever seen. 

After graduating with my B.S. in kinesiology, I went on to earn my master's degree in clinical exercise physiology from The University of Texas.   

My life's work has been studying anatomy, physiology, and psychology of training, to help people become healthier and stronger.  

Let me help you lift smarter, look and feel better, and save time with a program designed just for you.
