PHILOSOPHY I believe that building a strong body is key to maintaining quality of life. My goal is to meet you where you are at, guide you through every exercise, and help you to become stronger at your own pace.
Folks of all body types welcome
"HELPING REGULAR PEOPLE BECOME STRONGER."
​
a bit about the workout
We utilize barbell exercises that involve as much of the body's muscle mass as possible to progressively make you STRONGER.
Not just a workout, this is a TRAINING SYSTEM that is designed to make you build strength over time.
Stick with it and you WILL see results!

"WE DON'T EXERCISE HERE, WE TRAIN"
What people are saying:
"I’ve never been one to go to the gym consistently, but I’ve been working out with Fred twice a week and I love it. Highly recommend if you have a hard time feeling motivated on your own."
"I really enjoy the one-on-one training. I also appreciate it being private. Fred is very knowledgeable/personable and will answer any questions or concerns you may have. He is committed to you and your goals. I can attest his system really works as I have doubled my strength in six months. I look and feel better and my over all quality of life has improved immensely."
"Fred's approach to barbell training and his private gym were just what I needed to start (and to keep!) making fitness a priority in my life. Highly recommended if you are looking for a trainer to keep you interested, motivated and accountable - warning: you may get hooked. ;)"

"As a woman in a larger body I have avoided training and "gym" scenarios because of the fat bias that exists in society. Finding someone who can work with me (or anyone like me) by creating a safe, supportive environment is a rare find. The morality society assigns to body size and food is so incredibly damaging and it's something I have worked really hard to not have in my life. It's not a linear progression. It's two steps back sometimes but it's growing overall in the right direction every day. Thank you again for a safe space."
