Coaching Philosophies:
Specific, structured, periodized training towards a goal:
Specific training as a combination of exercises, sets, reps and break durations depending on the goals of the individual program.
Structured training sessions designed to improve sport-specific strength, power, speed, agility, conditioning, flexibility, and proper nutrition.
Periodized training will ensure that you continue to make measurable progress, which will keep you energized and interested in reaching your goals.
Having fun, while training hard:
As an athlete, I know it takes hard work to excel in any sport. But why not have fun while doing it!
As a coach, I integrate “fun” into workouts and instill a passion for achieving goals during workouts.
As a husband, family is important to me, balancing family, career, sports, is a priority, so it has to be fun!
