Why I get up in the morning.

I’m convinced a strong, pain-free body is the best gift you can giveto yourself and the people who count on you. When you feel good, you play harder with your kids, think sharper at work, and squeeze more joy out of every day. My job is to hand you that gift without wasting a second of your time.

How I learned the hard way.

I stepped into a karate class at seven and was hooked. Fast forward to national titles, MMA cages, and sparring sessions with world-class coaches, including one who trains Israeli special forces, all drilling me to stay calm when everything hurts. Along the way I mastered Muay Thai strikes, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu chokes, wrestling takedowns, and earned a Saishokido self-defense certification.

Then I hit the weight room for looks, not form. I loaded the bar with more plates than sense, followed every shiny “six-week shred,” and collected injuries like stickers. Online diet advice made it worse—one expert said “keto,” the next screamed “carbs,” and I ended up hating food and my body.

After years of being constantly injured and constantly overthinking everything I ate, I decided enough was enough. I dug into real research, earned NASM credentials and mentorships with sports-medicine professionals, logged thousands of training hours, and rebuilt from scratch. Lesson learned: true strength is science-based, kind to your body, and flexible enough to bend with real life.

Today I’m stronger, leaner, and happier around food than ever—proof that health first gives you the looks and performance as bonuses. I don’t want anyone burning years on pain and confusion the way I did.
