I have been training athletes for over 20 years. I've learned that training athletes requires the development of a spectrum of athletic skills, speed skills, and strength. I played college football. I was selected as national defensive player of the week two times and conference defensive player of the week three times in the Lone Star Conference. I was an All-American Linebacker, First Team defense, All-Academic team, and scholastic athlete of the year 2005. Named Second Team All-Defense and Academic All-Conference in 2004.

The turning point that drove the desire for me to start training athletes happened the spring after my final college season. I had always been told that if you're right-handed you start with your left foot in front when running the 40-yard dash. Then, while training for pro combines, I watched a video stating how to determine which foot you should place in front. It was which foot do you jumped the highest off of. I always jumped higher off of my right foot. Once I switched to my right foot in front, it dropped my step count in my 40 by 3 steps and took a full step off of my 10-yard. That changed everything! Had I known this 8 years ago, I would have been much faster at all combined. This began a long journey of my understanding of what minor changes can be made to improve performance and how that can completely push an athlete into a new stratosphere.

We didn't have an opportunity to learn how to improve our athleticism when I was coming up. You either knew someone, your dad or family member knew someone, or it was survival of the fittest. There just were not that many options to train outside of your school. You had to be self-taught. I always wanted to help the next generation of athlete become the best they can be. That desire drives my passion and motivation to do what I do.
