The ISSA Elite Trainer credential is awarded to accomplished ISSA Certified Trainers who have proven their competence in personal training and developed expertise in two additional areas of specialization. With scientific backing and practical application in the areas clients need help with the most, this credential proves that extensive education equals results.
It's no secret - fitness training has been proven to prevent disease, strengthen your health and improve your confidence and outlook on life. As a certified fitness trainer, I'm deeply trained in everything from muscle mechanics to flexibility and cardiovascular dynamics. So if you want to live a stronger and more confident life, I've got the training and the expertise to help you every step of the way.
Whether you want to gain muscle, lose fat, or live healthily, your limiting factor usually lies beyond exercise. Poor nutrition is what holds people back. As a certified specialist in this area, I can help you dispel the common myths about nutrition, and then work with you to design a "real world" nutrition plan that you can actually stick with and enjoy.
When most individuals think about the sport of bodybuilding, images of big, dumb guys grunting and throwing weight around are often conjured up. This could not be further from the truth! Serious bodybuilders are part athlete, part scientist, and part artist. As a specialist in this area, I can provide training, recovery, motivational, and nutritional strategies to help you achieve maximal muscle growth and optimize physical appearance.
There are more than 100 reasons why aerobic exercise has a positive effect on the quality and quantity of a person's life, but without the right program, clients get bored before they feel better. As a certified Endurance Fitness Trainer, I can create a motivating cardio program to help you achieve maximum aerobic conditioning at any age, or with any chronic condition.
Emergency Medical Technicians provide out of hospital emergency medical care and transportation for critical and emergent patients who access the emergency medical services (EMS) system. EMTs have the basic knowledge and skills necessary to stabilize and safely transport patients ranging from non-emergency and routine medical transports to life threatening emergencies. Emergency Medical Technicians function as part of a comprehensive EMS response system, under medical oversight. Emergency Medical Technicians perform interventions with the basic equipment typically found on an ambulance. Emergency Medical Technicians are a critical link between the scene of an emergency and the health care system.
As your trainer, your health and safety is of paramount importance to me. While the training must challenge your limitations in order to be effective it will always be conducted in a manner that prioritizes health and safety. The training I have as a volunteer EMT gives me insights and understanding to help avoid traumatic or medical emergencies in the first place, and to maintain the skills to ensure we are as prepared as we can be for any emergencies that could arise.
Training tactical athletes is a whole different ballgame—and running harder or lifting heavier isn't always the answer. As a certified Tactical Conditioning Specialist, I prepare clients for the extreme demands of physically intense professions like military, firefighting, and law enforcement. I design customized, safe, and progressive programs that account for unique challenges such as gear, time constraints, and emergency readiness. Whether training those who serve or clients chasing that everyday hero physique, I help achieve peak strength, stamina, and mobility beyond traditional workouts. When it comes to tactical conditioning, I'm the go-to expert who gets results under pressure.
