Symmetry Personal Training: Corrective Exercise Specialist

As a Corrective Exercise Specialist at Symmetry Personal Training, I bring a unique blend of personal experience and professional expertise to my practice.

Background in Fitness

Growing up in a family deeply rooted in the fitness industry, I was exposed to the principles of physical wellness from an early age. With my father and brother boasting 35 and 20 years of experience in the fitness industry, respectively, I inherited a passion for health and wellness. My own journey began with 15 years of dedicated involvement in baseball, a pursuit which, while rewarding, led to some muscle imbalances—particularly as a result of being a left-handed pitcher.

Transition to Corrective Exercise

Upon completing high school in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, I ventured to Dallas, Texas to kickstart my fitness career. Over 7 years, I diligently pursued certification with the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), ultimately specializing in Corrective Exercise. This transition was largely influenced by a significant back injury I sustained early in my own fitness training. Rather than succumbing to the setback, I leveraged it to refocus my career and hone my expertise in injury prevention and rehabilitation.

Embracing Corrective Exercise

Embracing Corrective Exercise with NASM has proven transformative, personally and professionally. By integrating the program's comprehensive understanding of human movement science, I have not only mitigated the need for major surgeries but have also achieved peak physical condition at 38.

Approach to Corrective Exercise

At Symmetry Personal Training, I employ a 3-step approach to Corrective Exercise. My primary objective is to identify and address movement dysfunction through a meticulous assessment of my clients' physical capabilities. Subsequently, I craft individualized programs tailored to rectify faulty movement patterns, drawing on an array of specialized techniques to optimize functional movement.
In essence, while Corrective Exercise is a multifaceted discipline, my mission as a Corrective Exercise Specialist is straightforward: to facilitate the rehabilitation and enhancement of human movement. Through meticulous analysis and targeted intervention, I endeavor to empower individuals to realize their full physical potential and reclaim harmony in their bodies.
At Symmetry Personal Training, I am committed to leveraging my personal journey and technical acumen to guide clients towards sustainable, injury-free fitness and holistic wellness.

Helping Others Overcome Pain and Move Better
As a result of my own past injuries, I can deeply relate to the challenge of dealing with debilitating pain, particularly in the lower back. A few years back, I too found myself incapacitated by intense pain that often left me bedridden for weeks. It was a time of immense struggle and frustration, impeding not only my physical well-being but also my overall quality of life.
However, rather than succumbing to this adversity, I chose to harness my personal experience with injury as a catalyst for transformation. Motivated by my own ordeal, I embarked on a mission to aid as many individuals as possible in breaking free from the clutches of pain. This arduous journey led me to channel my efforts into helping others recover from past injuries, mitigate the risk of future ones, and optimize their body's functionality.
Every facet of my work with clients reflects this unwavering commitment. I am dedicated to fostering better movement patterns, striving to minimize the likelihood of injury recurrence, and ensuring that the body operates at its utmost potential. By amalgamating my personal struggle with injury and my professional expertise, I endeavor to guide others toward a life unencumbered by pain and physical limitations.
Through my own tribulations, I have cultivated a deep understanding of the profound impact that chronic pain and injury can wield. This comprehension fuels my determination to elevate the lives of those grappling with similar challenges, propelling them toward a future characterized by vitality, strength, and unrestricted movement. My experiences have endowed me with an abiding passion to serve as a steadfast ally in the pursuit of pain-free living and enhanced well-being for all those who seek my guidance.
