My favorite sport to play is golf.

My favorite sports hero is Walter Payton.

My role models are my older brothers.

My favorite forms of exercise are strength training and running.

My drink of choice is water.

Early bird or night owl? Early bird.

I decided to help athletes move to the next level because success in sports develops character that can be advantageous in all walks of life.

One training/conditioning mistake a lot of athletes make is overtraining.

Before I begin training an athlete, it’s important to evaluate the abilities and motivation.

The athletes I've been most pleasured to work with are the athletes that want to succeed.

I most enjoy watching athletes succeed at tasks they previously could not perform.

I enjoy helping athletes develop the confidence to physically compete at their sport.

My least favorite training exercise is the deadlift.

Strength or cardio? Strength.
