About Evan

I first started lifting when I was 14 years old at a measly 140lbs in pursuit of several extrinsic goals, one of which was to cure my inherent lanky geekiness. Three months later I was hooked on the weights and I began to dig deeper into educating myself on how to optimize my progress. In addition to my own curiosity, while I pursued and received a bachelors in business administration, my time as a university varsity football player exposed me to training philosophies and principles focused around athletic performance and explosiveness, approaches to lifting that I may otherwise not have discovered on my own.

Since, I have been lucky to work with a world-class powerlifter and powerlifting coach, Sean Noriega, and although I do not provide powerlifting specific coaching, my time with him has proven to be priceless in the context of knowledge within that discipline as well as several other facets of resistance training. More recently, I worked with Nick Gloff, a well-known coach who is quickly making a name for himself among the top coaches in competitive bodybuilding. I learned as much as I could from him about bodybuilding in its purest form during that time. That being said, my greatest asset is the amazing network of friends and professionals within the fitness and wellbeing space who I have come to develop great relationships with. Not only do these people continually push me to improve on a daily basis, they are also priceless resources who specialize in areas outside of my own expertise.

I pride myself on pursuing the best and most up-to-date information and principles available in the context of hypertrophy training such that I can provide value that others cannot. The world of lifting is fundamentally based in science and, because of that, is always changing. It is up to us as coaches and professionals to keep up with the forefront of these discoveries and novel concepts in order to properly fullfill our roles. Complacency is unacceptable.
