Ginnie
He is not at all what I was expecting. In a good way! I have been dealing with a number of chronic health conditions and I was pleasantly surprised to see how thoughtful he was at adapting to my limitations. He has taught me so much that I believe will help me continue to manage my aches and pains. More...

I came to Chambersburg Pa having recently gotten out of a wheelchair and still walking with a cane. I had all but given up on ever having a normal life again. I am 63 and riddled with old age! Coach had my best interests in mind ALWAYS and knew exactly what I needed and exactly how to get me there. I wasn't really looking to get my youthful physique back. I just wanted to walk unassisted again. He helped me regain my balance and strength all while gaining muscle. I had the confidence to lose the cane in 2 weeks!! I could go on forever. He is an honest trustworthy young man with integrity and knowledge far surpassing his youth. Please feel free to email me for a recommendation. The man is amazing! More...

He is FANTASTIC! I haven’t even done 10 sessions with him yet and I’m already seeing results. He is so friendly and knowledgeable. I told him specific areas I wanted to work on before my wedding and he has created a work out that targets those areas. I highly recommend him!!! More...
