Greg has experience working with all types of athletes, but his preference is anyone who is looking to get stronger, build muscle and most importantly feel better mentally and physically.
I am not your prototypical athlete. I was not raised to compete in sports, and strength has not come naturally to me. I have dedicated my education, training, and career to helping people like me reach their potential regardless of their starting point.
Though I began my career in personal training, my fascination with the dynamic interaction between the foods we take in and our performance, recovery and body composition led me to pursue a graduate education in nutrition. I pride myself on my ability to blend evidence-based practices with the very individual and emotional art that is our diet.
I feel that the human element of diet is often ignored, and use my unique skillset to help clients design a diet plan they not only enjoy, but that works with their own physiology and still delivers results. Additionally, my education and experience as a dietitian allow me to help clients navigate through deficiencies and other medical issues as they maximize their goals and performance.

What Greg’s clients say…
“I have worked with Greg for a little over 2 years. During that time, I lost 35 pounds and have kept it off with his guidance. This was done through changing my eating habits and not through some fad diet. He helped me understand what foods I should be eating and correct portions. He is always encouraging, never condescending when I do not meet a goal as quickly as I would like. He has also been very helpful in tailoring my nutrition plan with my exercise plan. He has changed my eating habits for life, I would not hesitate to recommend Greg to someone. He is the best!”

“Coach Greg has helped me immensely during our time working together. I was always the skinny guy so I never worried about what I ate, but as I aged I started putting on some pounds. While working with Greg, I have lost 20 lbs and gotten stronger at the same time. He actually has me following a diet plan that I can maintain. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to get leaner, stronger, and/or healthier.”
– Ryan
“I’ve been working with Greg Schiltz for about a year and a half. I hired Greg after being unsatisfied with my progress working with a different coach, and not feeling confident in my own programming. During my time working with Greg I’ve seen significant gains in most of my compound movements and decreases in times in many of my moving events. My deadlift, usually an event I score near the bottom at or zero, at my last competition I finished in third in the event. Weights that I used to periodically fail, I’m now consistently pulling for five and six reps. My pressing, traditionally my best event has always been wildly inconsistent. Since working with Greg I’ve seen a significant improvement in my consistency in all pressing events. Greg has been working with me aggressively on conditioning and higher rep ranges, this work has carried over very well to competitions were I’m getting higher reps and recovering between events better. This has translated to better results, taking third in my last competition even with multiple injuries.
Greg has done great work helping work around a sometimes sporadic travel schedule that may leave me with minimal equipment for over a month at a time. We’ve worked through and recovered from three injuries in quick succession.”
