I’m Sam, a certified NASM Personal Trainer, Strength Matters Kettlebell Certified in Strength and Conditioning, and TX Suspension Trainer Certified in Strength and Conditioning. In addition to my certifications, I approach training holistically, integrating a... scientific approach with mental training. While facilitating healthy weight loss and muscle gain are essential for physical change, mental training and transformation are fundamental for sustaining results. My fitness journey began as a multi-sport athlete, but as life grew busier, I drifted away from fitness and faced back problems. This struggle highlighted the importance of health and wellness. With renewed dedication, I enhanced my strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular endurance, which gradually alleviated my back issues and shifted my perspective on life. Through this process, I discovered my ability to create positive change. This realization drives my desire to coach others in unlocking their full potential through fitness. My passion lies in empowering individuals to realize they can undergo remarkable physical and mental change when they’re ready to take that first step.
