“I was really scared to give up control of my programming and start working with a powerlifting coach. I was also nervous about communicating with a coach and finding a relationship where I felt heard. Evan listened to my fears, as well as my individual needs and preferences in coaching and programming, and responded with an individualized, intelligent and effective program. Evan provides programming that is both challenging and rewarding, and he leaves me room to have a say. His programming is clearly built on over a decade of experience competing in powerlifting, and is adaptable to my specific goals and needs. His programming is never random or messy—it is strategic and rigorous. This is accompanied by his coaching, where Evan makes sure to listen to his athletes and creates a constructive, safe environment. Evan knows that I ask questions to understand—so I can be the best athlete, and learn from his wealth of knowledge. He listens to my needs as an athlete and problem solves with me to deliver the best experience. 

If I reflect on my past 7 months working with Evan, I’ve added over 100 pounds to my total, quadrupled all my accessory weights, and dialed in/improved technique across the board—all at the same body weight. I plan to be on Evan’s team for as long as I can.”
