“To say Joey has been a great coach is a terrible understatement: Joey has changed my life. I decided to hire him in November of 2015 because I saw his calculated training methods, humble words and client success. Since then, he has not only been a fantastic coach, but a best friend. He saw potential in me and concentrated all of his efforts to make me as strong as I can be. While we live on opposite sides of the country, he does a better job analyzing my training and understanding what I need than a personal coach. Joey and I talk on a daily basis about my training. Joey is incredibly encouraging and makes sure we understand why we are doing what we do and is always open to discussing training specifics. He is an easy going and unbelievably intelligent coach, as well as a student of the sport who tirelessly seeks the knowledge of other great coaches and experts in the field of strength training. Every meet I have done has gone EXACTLY as we wanted them to. He calls perfect attempts and 3 meets in a row I have gone 8/9, which I had never done before. Since November 2015 my numbers have gone from a 525 squat, 295 bench and 550 deadlift to a 562 squat, 370 bench and a 617 deadlift. He has lead me to winning the teen division at nationals, receiving an invite to Raw IPF Worlds as an alternate and an invite to compete at the Arnold Pro American. He time after time demonstrates his love for his clients and will constantly fine tune our programs to make sure we succeed. He has built a family of lifters who all communicate and share progress. I'm lucky to call Joey my coach and lucky to call him a great friend.”
