"EVER SINCE MY EARLY TWENTIES, THE FIELD OF HEALTH AND WELLNESS HAS BEEN MY PASSION. FOR NEARLY 2 DECADES NOW I HAVE STUDIED, AND DEVELOPED COMPLETE WEIGHT TRAINING AND NUTRITION PROGRAMS FOR CLIENTS. SOME FAMOUS, AND SOME NOT.


I STARTED MY CAREER BY STUDYING SPORTS MASSAGE, KINESIOLOGY, BIO-MECHANICS AND HAVE BEEN ON A QUEST TO PERFECT MY PROFESSION EVER SINCE. I HAVE BEEN A FORMER MEMBER OF N.C.S.F (NATIONAL COUNCIL OF STRENGTH AND FITNESS), A.F.A.A. (AEROBIC FITNESS ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA), ECA WORLD FITNESS ALLIANCE, I.F.P.A. (INTERNATIONAL FITNESS PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATION) AND A.C.E. (AMERICAN COUNCIL OF EXERCISE). WORKING WITH CATASTROPHIC INJURY AND HEAD TRAUMA PATIENTS FOR THE PAST 15+ YEARS HAS LEAD ME TO BE ONE OF THE MOST ELITE POST REHAB SPECIALIST IN MY FIELD OR EXPERTISE.


I WORK WITH THE YOUTH AT VARIOUS SCHOOLS TEACHING THEM THE IMPORTANCE OF EXERCISE. IT'S SAD TO KNOW THAT THE MAJORITY OF OUR YOUTH ARE OR WILL BE OBESE BY THEIR LATE TEENS. WITH A LITTLE BIT OF GUIDANCE AND ENCOURAGEMENT, WE CAN STEER THEM IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

MANY PEOPLE, WHEN THEY SEE MY TRAINING TECHNIQUES, THINK THAT THEY "CAN'T DO IT" OR THAT IT'S "TOO HARD". BELIEVE ME WHEN I TELL YOU THAT "YOU CAN DO IT" AND ITS "NOT TOO HARD".


I'VE NEVER HAD ANYONE NOT REACH THEIR GOALS AS LONG AS THEY GIVE ME 100% EFFORT! AS YOU CAN TELL, HERE AT MENTORS MUSCLES WE TRAIN ALL SHAPES AND SIZES.



"WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE.....  OTHER THAN WEIGHT AND BODY FAT?"
