About Adam

Twelve years ago, I almost committed suicide, but when I made it through, I never looked back. Ever since then, powerlifting and exercise have been literal lifesavers, transforming me from the 140lb weakling to the 230lb lifter I am today. I specialize not only in coaching clients on their fitness, but also in coaching them to adopt productive and healthy lifestyles.

My focus with my clients is always to help them move better, get stronger, and build muscle. I believe in helping people become the strongest version of themselves. With years of practical and theoretical experience under my belt, I always do everything I can to ensure my clients see the results they’re looking for.

What Adam's clients say:

“I worked for three months with Adam as a personal trainer this summer and had a great time. My goal was to learn how to use weights and how to build muscle groups. Adam was a great trainer. He was personable, knowledgable, and fun to be around. He pushed me when I needed to be pushed and understands when the body needs to rest to prevent injury. I never felt uncomfortable nor embarrassed by how I was doing during the training sessions. By the end of the three months, I had lost four pounds of fat and gained nine pounds of muscle. I look better and feel better. My running regime has also been accelerated by my training sessions. Overall I had a great time and looked forward to each session.”

“When I started at the gym, I had a consultation with Adam and I was really surprised at the numbers he told me. I was at 219 lbs. and 23.5% fat. In just 2 shorts months I was down to 208 lbs. and 17.6% body fat, and I was simply astounded. I could not believe that in such a small amount of time I could lose 12 lbs. He is a great trainer, and I have him to thank for the transformation I am seeing in my body today.”

“Last year I was lifting – doing Starting Strength-type programs a few days a week, but felt like I wasn’t making a lot of progress. In the new year, I decided to commit myself to your program and have been really happy with the results. From the start of the program I’ve added more than 100 pounds to my squat and deadlift and have broken personal records on bench and shoulder press. I’ve also managed to run 5 miles at a personal best and will be participating in a 10-mile run at the end of the month. My body weight has not changed and I feel great.”
