Training with Andy

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Start simple and give yourself time to learn the movements. Training 2–3 times per week with rest days in between is a great way to build consistency without feeling overwhelmed. I’ll guide you through form, progression, and how to train safely.

  • We’ll build small, sustainable habits over time instead of crash diets or extremes. By the end of the year, you’ll feel confident in your nutrition routine and see lasting changes.

  • Absolutely. We’ll start with the basics and progress at a pace that feels safe and effective for you. If you’re working with a physical therapist, I’m happy to coordinate with them so your recovery and training are aligned.

  • Each session is 60 minutes, with a little extra time at the end to wrap things up. Scheduling is handled through my online booking portal, and you can cancel or reschedule up to 8 hours in advance.

  • You can check out what clients are saying on Yelp/Yelp (check both links) and my webpage.

Testimonials

  • After 15 years of rock climbing, I knew I needed to do more for my body when I hit 40, so I started lifting with Andy's help. After a few in-person sessions, we transitioned to remote coaching, and since then, I've hit multiple PRs and continue to get stronger every month. Andy tailors my workouts to complement my climbing goals, cycles my training blocks strategically, and safely pushes me to my limits. I never have to think about my programming--he handles it all, and I've never been more confident in my strength and fitness.

  • 10/10 would recommend working out with Andy!! He is an amazing trainer and human being. He has helped me improve my form, confidence and strength with compound lifts. Additionally he has helped me improve my muscle endurance and conditioning with his curated workouts with an emphasis on reps and explosiveness. I look forward to working out with Andy every week because I know he will challenge me to improve on my previous week's effort!

  • I've worked with Andy almost a year and he has been the best personal trainer I've ever had! He has been extremely helpful in progressing towards my fitness goals and has given me foundational knowledge - including best exercises to do for my goals and form - that I can apply to workouts I do at home.

  • Sharing this review in case it helps others who probably might be in the same state I was in few months ago - thinking about getting a trainer and struggling to find someone and some place that would make PT worth it. I've been working with Andy for 3 months so far and I'm so happy I looked into personal training! I wake up at 6AM for 7AM sessions and it's not always easy. However, Andy's energy and dedication of sharing his love for the sport gets me showing up every week (haven't missed a session!)! I see and feel myself getting stronger and honestly I've been loving learning a new way to train with olympic weightlifting. it feels like I'm just there learning and having fun versus dragging myself through an hour long workout. I'm happy with it so far!
