Nick
My mission as a coach is to encourage growth, foster motivation, and offer solutions to anyone looking to achieve their fullest potential in movement. My experience consists of over 9,000+ sessions dedicated to training a variety of people, from weekend warriors and on-the-go small business owners, to stay-at-home parents, retirees, and high school/collegiate athletes. I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Applied Exercise Science from Springfield College, and I continue to spend countless hours studying ways to increase human performance through biomechanics and motivational psychology to help clients and athletes create lasting behavioral change.
Our time inside the gym is highly valuable amongst a seemingly endless list of daily chores & “To-Do’s.” Because of this, we must be as effective as possible with the time that we set aside for ourselves to exercise and so my approach as a coach relies on inviting my clients to be a part of the process. Together we take the guesswork out of what exercises should be done and begin to improve your body’s ability to function and remain pain-free along the way.
- B.S. in Applied Exercise Science at Springfield College (MA)
- Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist by the NSCA
- Certified Biomechanics Specialist

Our Personal Team
We built this business to help others recover from illness, injuries and/or chronic pain. We developed the business to help individuals get healthier and improve their overall wellness through nutrition, strengthening muscles, stretching and conditioning the body with regular exercise. We don’t do this just as a “job”. Our family “lives it” everyday at “the office”, in the clinic and at home. We are starting our kids off right and we’ve got the evidence to prove it. We’ve put together this little show to inspire you to take the first step. Make your health and wellness a family affair. You know you are doing something right when your two year old asks “will this make me fat and weak?” as they grab a cookie. Do your kids respond positively to a banana instead? Do you? Let’s get healthy and stay healthy together!
