Personal trainer at life time
in tempe, az
After doing some personal training and coaching on the side since 2021 I got the opportunity to do it full time. Changing careers, moving across the country to a place I had never been and didn't know anybody was both exciting and overwhelming. God closed a lot of doors and opened the right ones at the right time to get me here, so while I was scared about some things, I had a lot of peace, too. And now I also have a lot of purpose and people.
At Life Time, I got to do more than I would have imagined.
We had our own stretch and recovery sessions we serviced in addition to personal training. I led small groups of adults and kids, which is really fun getting to help younger athletes with big goals and dreams like I had. I taught some classes, took some classes that friends were teaching, and unintentionally broke a world record. Then I did it again (on purpose) just to be sure.
My favorite thing about working there was the amazing people I got to work with and meet. I made some of my best friends in a long time there, and I always feel so supported. Even over a year later it still hits me hard that I have people so willing to help me reach my goals, too - not just other trainers but members, too.
I had gotten NASM's Golf Fitness Specialist Certification as one of my CEUs back when I lived in Florida, but I had no idea I would actually put it to so much use. I have created an entire golf fitness program and trained clients in it all throughout the weeks. Arizona is the perfect place to specialize in golf because there are courses everywhere, and the weather is playable year-round. I'm currently working on a platform to offer this program online, so you can get a personalized, detailed, progressive program to improve your power, mobility, strength, stamina, and prevent injuries so you can play better (and improve your life while you're at it). If you're interested, send me an email and I'll make sure you're one of the first to know when it's ready!
Life Time has their own line of supplements, and they are some of the best you can get (NSF and GMP certified, third-party tested, AND taste amazing). Even if you're not a LT member, you can get them online. Since I'm not there anymore, use this link to connect to Damian for rewards points to discount your orders!
