As a client of Chad, I was immediately taken by his knowledge of human anatomy and his responsiveness to the needs and desires of his clientele. So much more than a trainer, Chad is able to determine "where you are" in terms of your baseline condition and develop a plan.

Chad truly cares and takes the time to fully understand all of the factors potentially influencing your challenge.

He is very present and has access to a wide range of tools in his tool box. Not cookie cutter-designed for you.
