  • What are the benefits of online coaching?
    Online training is the most effective and economical way to access my personal training services: SCHEDULING: Train on your own schedule. ACCOUNTABILITY: Personalized support during and outside our training sessions. FLEXIBILITY: Choose your favorite environment to work out: wherever, whenever. TRAINING APP: Track progress on the app and communicate with me in real time. COST-EFFECTIVE: No additional overhead costs for a gym.

  • Does the program include nutrition counseling?
    Yes, I will work with you closely on establishing a healthy, nutritious and sustainable diet. Please be aware that prescribing a detailed, clinically structured nutrition program is not a part of my services and only within the scope of practice of a registered dietitian. I will provide basic nutrition education, meal suggestions and opinions about food choices, caloric intake, macro split, meal timing, shopping lists and preparation. I do not claim to possess dietary degrees, registered or otherwise, and will not provide medically based nutritional advice. I will educate clients on best practices and based on credentials held from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and Precision Nutrition Level 1 Certification. My main goal is to educate clients on nutrition, positive accountability and food tracking or journaling.
  • What if I don’t have or want a gym membership?
    I design everything from scratch to fit your needs with customized gym or home based guided workouts, designed with your lifestyle, time, and preferences in mind. You‘re absolutely flexible to train in your favorite environment, at home, the gym, a hotel room, with or without equipment- your choice!
  • How often can I contact my coach?
    Feel free to send me an email at any time. You are welcome to ask as many questions as you like. I have set some extra time aside to respond on Tuesday and Friday mornings. Of course I will always be available for you in case of emergency.
  • How can I apply?
    All you have to do is click on the BOOK A FREE CONSULTATION button on my Online Coaching page and fill out my application form. You'll then automatically be taken to a scheduling page where you can book your free 20 minute Skype consultation call with me.
  • Do I have to give up my favorite foods?
    No! My goal is to help you establish healthy nutritional and lifestyle habits so you can still have your favorite foods while maintaining your weight loss goals! No food restrictions.
  • How do payments work?
    Subscription for my 12 week transformation program is done based on a one time payment via PayPal prior to program start. For 1:1 live personal training sessions via Skype, payment plans depend on the personal training package. Please contact (here) me for further details.
  • How is the program delivered?
    Training: All workouts will be delivered via my Barbell Boss Fitness software. As a client you will get free access to my app. You will receive a welcome email with a link to create your login and password so you can set up your account. I will notify you every time I have created a new workout for you. In your training account there is a calendar setup where your workouts are located. The software is best accessed using the Mobile App, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. With the app you get access to every single thing you need to keep track of your fitness progress. It also integrates directly with MyFitnessPal for food tracking as well as FitBit. Nutrition & Habit Coaching: You will also get access to my exclusive Membership area with a specially designed 12 week habit and lifestyle course, as well as a recipe database and additional bonus material.
