I became personal trainer as way to support myself while pursuing a degree in business at Brooklyn College. I am now 7 years into my journey as a personal trainer. My passion for exercise and nutrition has led to countless hours trying to understand the best ways to optimize clients performance and programs. I base clients workouts around not only progressions based on periodization but also their physiological needs and anatomical structures specific to them, while understanding that exercise truly is not a one size fits all, and thus things need to be adapted to the specific needs and requirements of the clients to make sure they are making consistent progress.
