Joel is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) and Virginia Tech Alumnus with a multi-sport background in baseball and track. He's competed in bodybuilding and powerlifting, with an interest in bringing a high-skill product to the general population.
His work with Jacob's Chance, a Richmond-based non-profit, provides sports, fitness, and social activities to children with special needs and their families. Since then, he's developed an internship program benefiting the students of VCU's Exercise Science department.
Joel has helped a wide-range of individuals reach rehabilitation-specific goals, fat-loss totals, and full-body strength improvements. Sports Performance training is a passion, but he understands that not one specific program design fits all individual needs. If it were up to him, everyone would lift heavy things pain-free.
In his spare time, he enjoys craft beer (IPAs especially), chocolate chip cookies, and watching Kung-Fu movies. His more established skills are public speaking, listening to his wife, and reading bed-time stories to his kids. Some of his (current) favorite books are "Fix This Next," "Ego is the Enemy," and "Green Eggs and Ham."
