“I worked with Nick online through TrueCoach to regain my strength after injuring my lower back. After my injury I had a lot of apprehension and decreased confidence about lifting again. His experience and knowledge as a Physical Therapist and Strength Coach guided me safely through my program. After sending him videos of my lifts he gave me feedback to correct my form so I could execute my lifts correctly. He was able to see any compensatory movements due to my weaknesses or sometimes fear from my injury and give me correction I could connect with. His individualized programming after my injury helped gave me my confidence back with barbell training. I would have not been able to regain strength without his exceptional programming.”

“I have been working with Nick for about 4 years now. Nick really gets the mind body connection and how stress can effect your lifts. He understands injuries and not only gets you through them, but leaves you stronger as well. He is the whole package…..coach, physical therapist, making sure your mind is in a good place, and a really nice guy to boot.”

“I’ve been training with Nick for 4 years now and from day 1 all I have seen is progress. He has pulled me through rough times and injuries that if left on my own, I would’ve approached completely the wrong way. His passion for the sport keeps me engaged and interested and his knowledge is so vast that there’s not much more I can write to truly justify his abilities as a coach – you just have to try and see for yourself.”

“I started working with Nick to better prepare for a powerlifting meet about 3 months ago. I quickly realized that not only did my training benefit from Nick’s programming but also his attitude and willingness to help. I can personally attest that he truly cares about his clients and their progress. He’s also very knowledgeable as a Physical Therapist and this makes a huge difference when dealing with injuries and making tweaks to your programming. My only regret is I wish I could’ve started working with him years ago!”

“Nick has been my coach for the past five years. Nick is an excellent coach. He has a great eye for form and is a master at providing just the right cues at just the right time to perfect the lifter’s technique. Nick is also a masterful programmer. He has really figured out a way to continue bumping my PRs in both intensity and volume with subtle tweaks to my training program. Above all, Nick is a super intelligent and really great guy.”

-Elisha Graff

“I’ve been training with Nick for about two years. I’ve never been stronger in my life! AND IT FEELS GREAT! Had chronic back pain – GONE! With Nick’s attention to detail, punctual feedback, and encouragement, I’ve made substantial gains in both form and strength. I never thought lifting would give me such a sense of fulfillment, but now I can’t live without it.”

-Bernie Hunt

“Nick spent 50 minutes on the phone with me to make sure that he understood every relevant aspect of my training background, injuries, health concerns, and time constraints. He is very patient and thorough and so far his programming and coaching has been spot on.”
