I've been working as a strength coach for over 15 years. Was trained by the best in New York City during the mid-80's. Worked with celebrities, wanna-bes, has-beens, never-wases, the beautiful people, the really beautiful people, the ugly people. Now I'm in the 'burbs working with regular folk. Over my career I've conducted over 30,000 private training sessions and countless thousands of additional hours working with teams at the high school and college level.
