About Ben

Lifelong athlete.
Passionate coach.

I've been involved in athletics my entire life and fell in love with the gym in grade 10. At 23, I'm building the career I've always wanted — and I genuinely love every part of it.

What got me into coaching wasn't a business plan. It was those moments in the gym where I'd help someone with their form or push them through a hard set — and see the look on their face when they realized what they were capable of. I want more of those moments.

"My whole approach is built around the idea that people work hardest when they genuinely enjoy what they're doing. So I build plans people actually want to follow — not plans they have to survive."
