Coaching
THREE WAYS TO WORK WITH ME.
Both options get fully personalized programming and the Kova Strength app. The difference is how often we check in and how much feedback you get. Not sure? Apply and I'll tell you what fits. All coaching runs on a 6-month minimum.

FAQ
Common questions
What's the difference between coaching and a pre-built program?
A pre-built program is a fixed training plan you buy once and run on your own: same weeks, same exercises, no feedback loop. Coaching is written for you and keeps changing. I build your programming around your goals, schedule, equipment and history, review your check-ins and form videos, and adjust as you progress. If you want a solid plan to follow independently, start with a program. If you want feedback and someone adjusting things as you go, choose coaching.
Do I need to compete to work with you?
No. Most of my clients don't compete. Your programming is built around your goals, not mine.
I'm a complete beginner. Is this right for me?
Yes. Plenty of my clients started with zero experience. You get exercise demos, written cues, and weekly form review so you build technique safely from day one.
What equipment do I need?
A barbell, plates, and a rack cover most of it. If you have a home setup, I'll work with what you have.
How does the weekly check-in work?
You send a short check-in and your form videos. I review them, reply with feedback, and adjust the next week.
What if I travel or get sick?
Message me and we'll adjust: swap days, deload, or pause the week. That's the point of having a coach.
Is there a minimum commitment?
Yes, 6 months. Strength is a long game and real change needs a full training block. After that it's month to month.
Do you handle meet day?
Attempt selection and meet-prep planning are included. Me being there in person on the platform is a separate paid add-on.
