CLIENT TESTIMONAILS
Never Too Late to Start
“At 89 years old, I have always lived an active lifestyle of walking, swimming and running but had never introduced strength training into my routine. Clay convinced me of the benefits that strength training would give me while also eliminating any intimidating or limiting beliefs that I held. Since we started working together, I have achieved beyond what I thought I was capable of. Every time that we work together, Clay displays a determination to keep me going with vitality for years to come. The relationship that we have built has been so beneficial knowing that he is always there for me with a welcoming and comforting presence. He always adjusts based on my current needs and does so through intentional check-ins at the beginning of our sessions and check-outs at the end of our sessions. There is never a moment that I do not feel seen, understood and accommodated.”

Building Back from Zero
“I had already been working with Clay for about two years before my fitness was dramatically impacted by a neuroinvasive virus that left me starting from ground zero. After being on a ventilator for weeks, I had severe muscle atrophy and lost a significant amount of muscle function and motor control. I spent 4 months in physical therapy where my focus was basic recovery, after which I was incredibly unsure how to rebuild my strength and endurance effectively. That is when Clay came back into the picture where he became an essential part of my journey, helping me build back to my current 95% of pre-virus capabilities. His guidance, support, and belief in me made all the difference in my recovery. I am incredibly grateful for the role he played in getting me to where I am today.”

Guidance and Knowledge
"Before working with Clay, I followed a plant-based diet but lacked the nutritional knowledge to make it truly work for my body. He supported my choices and helped me incorporate more protein-forward meals. Over time, I chose to reintroduce meat and dairy into my diet. The change in my confidence, energy, and strength has been profound. He’s also helped me overcome my intimidation of weightlifting by showing me the importance of building muscle. Over the last 2+ years of following his custom programming, he has educated me on proper form and technique to maximize my results. I’m so grateful for his expertise in both the gym and the kitchen!"

Rock Solid Foundation
“I started working with Clay when I was 90 days removed from a Liver Transplant. At this point, my fitness was extremely low where I had lost almost all of my strength and had little to no cardiovascular capacity. Clay’s approach was to ensure that he understood the background of my health history and then use that information to build a path forward that challenged my body in diverse ways each time we trained. From the mindfulness that he exemplified in his movement selections to the sincerity he held in his understanding of my current state, Clay was very engaged watching every rep and movement to determine if we could push a little more or back off when needed. Working with Clay has accelerated my recovery. I know others who are in the same situation as me and time from transplant, but I am miles ahead of them. It was life changing for me considering what I went through.”
