My Story

My journey in strength and conditioning began with a simple realization: every athlete is unique, and their training should reflect that individuality. With a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and experience working with athletes at every level—from youth players to MLB Draft Picks—I've learned that the most effective training programs are built on a foundation of evidence, individualization, and long-term thinking.

During my time at Penn State and later at Cressey Sports Performance, I had the opportunity to work with some of the most talented athletes in the world. These experiences taught me that success isn't just about physical preparation—it's about developing the mental resilience, consistency, and character that allow athletes to thrive under pressure and continue growing throughout their careers.

Today, through Schoessler Strength, I'm committed to bringing that same level of expertise and individualized attention to every athlete I work with, whether they're a weekend warrior looking to stay healthy or a professional athlete chasing their dreams.

Individuality

Every athlete brings their own unique background, goals, and limitations. Training programs should be tailored to the person, not the other way around.

Eudaimonia

Following Aristotle's philosophy, true fulfillment comes from developing virtue through facing challenges and growing through adversity.

Consistency

Real change happens through consistent effort over time. It's not about perfect days—it's about showing up and doing the work.

Long-term Development

Training should support longevity and health, not just short-term performance. Building athletes who can thrive for decades, not just seasons.
