I have been working with Adam for the last several months. It has been a fantastic experience. Adam has created a custom workout plan for me based on my unique needs (multiple surgeries) and has really helped me get incredibly stronger. He holds me accountable and has really helped me find a commitment and enjoyment to the workout routines. I am so grateful that he’s gotten me back into working out.

I've been working with Adam for a little over a year.

Adam is a great teacher. Great at analyzing flaws in technique, or weaknesses that need addressing to complete exercises safely and effectively. He has a great way of explaining and demonstrating proper technique that really makes sense, and will add warmups and exercises to address and improve problem areas. Everything we work on ties into a philosophy of fitness and self improvement built on StrongFirst principles.

Adam emphasizes mobility and stability as the most important component of the practice, and thoughtfully assesses and designs warmup and cooldown exercises to improve these areas.

Because of this I have seen tremendous progress over the past year, I am stronger, leaner, more flexible, feel more connected to the ground, and getting close to the best shape of my life at 46.

Adam is incredibly motivating in ways that are not in your face like my high school coaches. He is kind, patient, and optimistic - never stern or critical. But he has some kind of magic sorcery that really motivates you to commit and improve.

I couldn't be happier with him as my coach. I highly recommend him!

In a short time, Coach Adam has made an enormous difference in our lives. He works together with my partner and me in weekly couples training sessions, and designed for each of us a fully customized program tailored to our individual needs, goals, strengths and bodies. Coach Adam is kind, easygoing, clear and thoughtful in his instruction. If you run into a challenge, he always has a handy way to approach it, or little thing to keep in mind, all of which build toward a stronger long-term practice. If you're looking for someone to bark orders and blow whistles in your face and be judgy about what you can or can't do (basically every gym teacher I ever had), this is NOT your guy. If you're looking for a long-term guide to help you build strength, gain mobility, get more in touch with your body and all the amazing things it can do, all in fun sessions you'll actually look forward to, then look no further. We both feel extremely grateful to have landed with Coach Adam. You will too.

It doesn't take a long time to see what makes Coach Adam such a great asset. He prioritizes a personalized approach from the start- which helps set you up for success. As someone with a history of serious injury, I was so thankful that Coach Adam took the time to assess what worked best for me first. He has kept that in mind as we continue to train, and that makes me feel safe.

He is encouraging, supportive, and always positive. But, perhaps my favorite characteristic is that Coach Adam is dedicated to finding the right path for each of his clients. When I am struggling or have questions, he digs in to figure out what the problem is, and takes creative ways to address it so I can move forward. I'm so thankful to him- and couldn't recommend him more!

Cannot recommend Adam highly enough!! The convenience of training at home is awesome, especially during COVID. Adam has helped me up my game in terms of form and really get all my strength / functionality back postpartum. Our weekly training sessions are fun, challenging, and a highlight of my week!

I trained with Coach Adam for 2 years during the pandemic. Over that time, my strength, flexibility and mobility improved tremendously. He was able to help me through my long term injuries and pains by tailoring training specifically for my needs. He’s not only a great trainer but a wonderful person - friendly, kind, funny and smart - to name a few traits. I highly recommend Coach Adam for your training needs!

Adam is the best trainer I’ve ever had. His focus on form and progression is exceptional. I’ve had trainers before and have gone through assessments, but the assessment he provides is so thorough and he took the time to explain the importance each movement. I can see how he’s incorporating the assessment into our workouts. He also makes the sessions fun. He definitely pushes you, but he keeps you engaged. He’s definitely worth the money.

My husband and I are doing personal training classes with Adam and we couldn't recommend him more. He has adjusted to our personal needs, always has new workouts for us to try, pushes us, but is also aware of some injuries and addresses those accordingly. He is an amazing trainer and after years of not working out, he has motivated me to do it seriously. I feel great and energized. Thank you Adam, you are amazing!

I've worked with Adam for almost two years now. I first came to him after a leg injury. He helped me recover and regain mobility. Since then we have worked on a lot of other things to increase strength and mobility. Each session is enjoyable and productive because Adam explains why you are doing each thing and what it is helping you develop.
