Sandy Personal Training

I was not gifted with a great childhood, money or physical attributes. However,  I wanted to help myself and others live better since I was a teenager in the 80’s. I just didn’t realize the occupation called “personal trainer” existed. I didn’t have skills or experience, but I did have an unrelenting dream and drive to be the best. My mentality was that if you’re going to be in the business of helping others, do your best for the right reasons or don’t get involved.

After stumbling about for several years trying to figure out my career pathway. I decided to make a permanent personal training commitment. So, in 1999 I moved 2000 miles to CA to fulfill my dream of being the best personal trainer around.

I became a bit obsessed with studying how to get faster results with clients. I also went back to school to be a physical therapist. When I was doing that I immersed myself in education about functional anatomy, physiology, cognitive therapy, rehab, sports performance, bodybuilding, nutrition, eastern medicine and much more. Partly because the education I felt traditional degrees and personal training certifications were providing were simply insufficient to solve many of my clients complex problems.

After a few years of soaking in every bit of knowledge, and working for many large commercial and corporate gyms, I decided the best way for me to help people was to run my own practice. So I decided to invest in a small gym where I could create my own programs to help clients reach their goals faster, easier, simpler and cheaper. My gym was a gold mine of success. A few years ago I moved here to slow down to enjoy more family time.

At  Sandy Personal Training I operate in the same manner. The only difference here is that I coach a lot less and in the comfort of my own home. The training process is efficient, effective, safe and clean.

I welcome my clients like they are my friendly neighbors and provide home comforts including their choice of music, temperature, fans and a calm place to communicate.

When I am not training and self educating, I am usually spending my time with family and volunteer coaching with youth sports and senior centers.

Thank you.

In thriving health.
