I've mentioned before that I wrote for the high school newspaper. I'm going back to those basics that Mr. Quinn taught us. I'm basically going to answer the 5 "W's" (and one "H"). I figure this will be the easiest, quickest way to tell a little bit about me and what I do. Here goes.
- Who am I? First and foremost, I'm a husband and father of two boys. Professionally I'm a personal trainer/strength coach. I love sports; both watching and playing. I like whiskey and scotch and I'm trying to learn the nuances of different brands.
- What do I do? I coach people. I help them figure out the changes they want and need to make in their lives. I help people improve their overall lives by improving their fitness, nutrition and lifestyle practices.
- Why do I do it? I love to help people find what motivates them and then help them use that motivation to live their best life.
Another reason I do what I do is it allows me to meet and work with people from all sorts of different backgrounds and around the world. This leads to great conversations in which I learn a ton.
- Who (bonus) I work with? I work with two different types of people mostly. The first is women in the 30-50 age range. These women tend to be new to exercise, particularly lifting weights. I help them learn to lift and appreciate the confidence and fitness/health benefits that weight lifting brings.
The second type is men in the 50-65 range. These men usually have had some injuries in the past or are currently dealing with a nagging injury. They also are usually looking to lose some weight. They trust me to help them lose that weight safely.
- How do I do it? With both groups I focus on helping clients move better and make lifestyle choices that'll lead to the goals they want to reach. Both inside and outside the gym, I choose exercises that enhance and/or improve your strengths and weaknesses.
- Where/When (combo)? I do in-person coaching in the NYC area (Manhattan/Brooklyn). I work out of a few gyms or I go to people's apartment buildings.
The majority of my in-person coaching sessions are during the week. However, I also offer online coaching services. With online coaching, you can get the coaching on your own schedule when you're ready to ingest and digest it.
That's just a quick run down about me and what I do. If you want a little more info about me go here. Also there you can join my mailing list and stay up to date with me.
