My Story

My story is not one of a very overweight guy struggling to lose weight and finally tapping into some "secret" that helped me shed the pounds. I've never been "fat" - so I have no dramatic before and after photo. In fact, I'm probably just like most other people. I want to be healthy and be able to live life without pain or injuries. Sure, I like to look good - but I really just want my body to function the way it should.

So.. here's a bit about me:

I've never been on the cover of a fitness magazine (and I have no desire to!).

I don't work out 7 days a week (but I do workout.. usually 2-4 days per week for about an hour each session).

I don't diet (but I do choose well when shopping and eating... with one "cheat day" each week - on Saturday - when I eat whatever I want!!).

I'm a licensed Physical Therapist and Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist currently practicing in Colorado. I own a clinic where I see patients several days per week. I specialize in manual therapy (where I use hands on techniques to treat pain and mechanical dysfunctions) and exercise prescription.

My passion is helping people get out of pain, and get to a place where they are working to attain optimal health and fitness. I love to teach, and hope that some of the information I have to share can help you to reach your goals.

You'll find no promises of losing "X" pounds in 2 weeks.. or claims of any magic bullets. I will, however, share with you the principles and techniques that I've learned and used (personally and with patients and clients).

Enjoy, and please let me know your thoughts!
