I started working with Aaron after a four-year, on-and-off relationship with powerlifting due to life and the coronavirus. I was coming back from a herniated disc which had made it impossible to even cough or sneeze without pain, let alone squat an empty bar. I was already disillusioned with powerlifting as a sport, but promised myself to give it one last shot before calling it quits.

Through his unwavering patience, persistence, and belief in myself, Aaron has helped me rediscover my love for this sport and rekindled the dying flame inside of me. He helped me transition from conventional to sumo, refined my squat and bench technique, and made me a much more robust lifter overall. Most important to me, however, is his holistic approach to coaching, meaning that he knows exactly when to push me in training and when to pull back when life’s demands get in the way. I could not recommend Aaron more highly to anyone regardless of skill level, but especially to the intermediate lifter like myself looking to take themselves to the next level.
