He believes that CrossFit is the best approach for taking an intermediate athlete to an advanced or elite level.

Recently featured on NBC’s Today Show with Kathy Lee and Hoda and Inside Edition for his chiseled physique, he maintains 6% body fat year round. He was voted Best Personal Trainer in San Diego by numerous publications and continues to be a local fitness celebrity and advisor to the local media on health and fitness related issues.

He was first certified as a personal trainer in 1994 before being honorably discharged from the military and has been working as a professional personal fitness trainer in San Diego since 1995.

We all know there are things we need to take care of in our lives, and somehow in the shuffle of it all, we forget to make the time to take care of ourselves. We can make time for health and fitness. The truth is, if we don't make time now, we may find ourselves suffering from a health concern, not having much time for anything and wishing we would have spent the few hours a week in the gym. Our ability to contribute and perform in our lives and realize our dreams is directly affected by our fitness level and our willingness to take action. Be a doer. If you are ready to make a change, and want to do it in the most effective way possible, and desire lasting results, consult with an experienced Certified Personal Trainer. You will gain more time than you spend.
