My Mission

My mission is to show clients that changing your life and improving health only takes one extra step a day. Reaching your goals is a cumulative effect that only requires getting 1% better everyday. At first, 1% doesn't seem like much. As you start to understand your body and how to exercise more, that 1% starts to compound. Eventually you see the changes you want to see and exceed what you though was possible. I am here to teach you to change your life with only 1% more a day.

You are what you repeat. - Atomic Habits

Why Train With Me

I have three years of experience working with professional baseball players (with Houston Astros and Milwaukee Brewers). Currently I rehab injuries and train soldiers in optimizing their readiness for duty. My background in sports and working with tactical athletes allows me to determine where you're at, what equipment you have available, and how we can utilize both to exceed your goals.

My go-to workout

For quick workouts, a 20 minute run is plenty. With time, I'll hit a full-body lift.

Healthy food I love

I love seafood! It is one of the leanest animal proteins and quick to make.

Healthy food I hate

It has taken me a while to warm-up to anything with beans in it.

Client stories

"Before finding Kickoff, I wasted so much time sitting in my car at the gym trying to google the "best" workout for the day. Now I never fret over workouts - they're sent to me with clear instruction in the Kickoff app. Working with my trainer via text has been such a benefit. Having that accountability was key - I beat my goal by 10 lbs, losing 40 lbs before my wedding day!"
