“Moses has taught me how to train everyone to be the best of their abilities while understanding the differences of each athlete or client” — Cole
After training with Cole for 5 years now, I can honestly say he's the best in the business and just an all-around great person. His training sessions are always personalized, diversified, challenging, and fun and he's truly committed to helping his clients achieve their goals. Cole's expertise in strength training, olympic lifting, functional movement, and martial arts is extensive, but it's his patience, creative workout programs, and ability to motivate that really make him stand out. Additionally, Cole is particularly gifted at helping people rehabilitate injuries through exercise and was the key to my recovery from a debilitating back injury. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, Cole can meet you there and help you get to the next level.

Cole is an amazing trainer. Without reservation I would recommend him to anyone from a beginner to a motivated athlete. Besides his extensive knowledge of exercises and fitness development techniques, and spectrum for motivation, the true tenant of a trainer is to meet you where you need to be when you walk in the gym. Whether I was fired up and ready to power through an incredible workout or I came into the gym a bit sluggish, Cole knew exactly what I needed for that workout, to make the most of it.
