I been a trainer since 2006. I feel that proper squats, which are my favorite exercise, are essential for everyone! I believe that everyone has a little bit of an athlete inside them, regardless of their age or ability. Being an athlete is more mental than anything. I always have an end goal in mind and use that when I work out but also when I train and motivate members. I am committed to seeing people reach their fitness goals.
