“Coach Blake is, without a doubt, well researched, knowledgeable, and effective. A true non-gimmicky expert. However, for me, what he does that is driving my success is his ability to listen and understand me and my unique circumstances.

Unfortunately, by the time you are my age, many women have had negative experiences with diet and exercise. I definitely have. There were many mental blocks when it came to the nutrition, I was worried about restriction and feeling hungry, amongst other things. Coach Blake always listens to my concerns, validates them, and works with me through them. For example, he created a whole article for me about foods that are most satiating. I’ve never felt deprived or hungry. He does the work and research for MY circumstances.

His nonjudgmental approach has me trusting him 100 percent. I never, ever, feel shamed. We work slowly and steadily, in a way that is sustainable. Coach Blake’s abilities to listen and understand are qualities that I didn’t even know I needed in a coach. But they are making all 👏the👏difference 👏!!!!”

“Working with Blake the past four years, I have achieved so many physical goals I had and so much more.

I never thought as a woman I’d ever be able to do a pull up, let alone almost four! I have learned that I need way more fuel than I thought and that I need adequate fuel to power my physical endeavors. I learned to feel confident and comfortable at the squat rack or free weights at the gym. I’m not only stronger than I’ve ever been but also have never loved my body as much as I do now. Blake’s expertise in exercise and nutrition is unparalleled to anyone else I’ve worked with”

“Before working with Coach Blake, I had tried four other fitness solutions, but none of them worked for me.

I didn't lose weight, and the workouts were so hard on my body that, as someone with multiple chronic health conditions and chronic pain, I’d end up in extreme pain for days.  On top of that, balancing work and caring for my two disabled children makes it tough to leave the house for workouts. I needed a plan that respected my responsibilities, allowing me to make meaningful progress without sacrificing time with my family. I remember telling a friend that all I wanted was someone who could take my constraints into account and help me get in shape despite them.

Enter Coach Blake. From the very beginning, Blake tailored a plan to fit my time and physical constraints. The approach was realistic, doable, and aligned with my unique situation.  At first, it felt like I was only making small changes—nothing too restrictive or overwhelming—and I remember wondering if it would make any difference. But to my surprise, after working with Blake, I lost about 10 pounds, built muscle, and started to feel and look more toned.

Beyond the physical transformation, working with Coach Blake illuminated deeper health issues I hadn’t realized were impacting my progress. This insight motivated me to seek more medical testing, which gave me crucial answers about my health and has been invaluable on this journey. Blake’s thoughtful, adaptive approach made all the difference, and I’m so grateful for the progress I've made under his guidance.

PS - My husband has been working with Blake too and he's looking like a Greek God, so thank you Blake!

“Coach Blake has been wonderful to work with.

Going through perimenopausal changes and dealing with those symptoms and their effects on my health has been perplexing and frustrating at times, to say the least. Though Blake will never experience this personally, he helped me feel truly seen and heard in my concerns and bewilderment and was fully committed to listening to understand. Because of this compassion, in addition to his extensive research and knowledge, I felt empowered, motivated, and hopeful in addressing my health goals. Working with Blake has proven to be very beneficial in my life and my overall health.”

“By August, I reached my goal of losing 20lbs and felt healthy, confident, and strong. Coach Blake was adaptable, and wanted to make my plan personalized…”

“I began working with Coach Blake last May, 2024. I had been active in the gym for over 3 years at this point, and had a very good idea of what to do in the gym. But, I was not seeing the results I desired which was to lose body fat, and gain lean muscle. I wanted to work with Blake for a few reasons which included trying a new workout regimen, someone to hold me accountable, and help me track my calories but also help me be in a calorie deficit. At the time, I had been in a bulking phase, and had gained 20 lbs of a combination of fat and muscle. I had a goal to lose 20 lbs by August. Blake worked with me, created a workout plan I enjoyed doing, and most importantly helped me with my diet and tracking. He motivated me, and helped me think of the big picture when it got hard. Being in a calorie deficit is hard for a girl who enjoys eating. By August, I reached my goal of losing 20 lbs and felt healthy, confident, and strong. Coach Blake was adaptable, and wanted to make my plan personalized and fitting for me however I wanted. He listened to my desires, and did the research to create the best plan for me. I have enjoyed working with Coach Blake and can’t wait to continue my fitness journey!”

“When I first started working with Coach Blake I was 30 to 40lbs overweight and had become generally apathetic about my fitness habits.

After not being able to fit into most of my clothes anymore I decided I needed to make a change. Coach Blake helped me implement simple, safe, and effective habits that allowed me to make fitness a part of my daily life. In the 18 months that I have been working with Coach Blake I have lost 40 lbs. This transformation was made possible because Blake was willing to adapt a fitness plan to my specific needs so that I could build the habits necessary to make long term changes to my health and fitness.  Whether you are a beginner who only has a couple of days a week to workout at home or an advanced lifter who goes to the gym everyday, Coach Blake has the ability, knowledge, and tools to help you reach your fitness goals.”

“I have always been an active person who likes sports and exercise. As I have aged and now going through perimenopause I got in a slump and exercise was not as enjoyable.

The activities I used to like doing to keep me strong and healthy became boring. With the help of Coach Blake I was able to start enjoying the gym again. He was able to provide me with the best individualized workouts to help me with my goals of building muscle and feeling stronger. He is always very encouraging, positive, and able to modify any exercise I felt I was not ready to do yet. I like checking in with him weekly to help me to stay on track and motivated. He provided me with a nutrition plan to help me reach my protein goals to build muscle and the amount of calories I would need to maintain a healthy weight. He changes up the workout plan every 6-7 weeks so I don’t get in a rut again. He sends me educational videos on the proper form of exercises I was not familiar with. He is patient and goes at my pace. I definitely feel stronger since working with Coach Blake!!”
