What you get

An in person personal trainer gets you one hour for $100 or more. No nutrition, and no accountability once that hour is over. Here, I see the whole picture: your training, your nutrition, and whether you're actually following the program. And I hold you accountable to it.

PROGRAM BUILT FOR YOU
Kettlebell sessions of 30 to 45 minutes, written for your body and schedule, updated every six weeks.
NUTRITION AND MACROS
Your numbers, adjusted as you progress. Food you'll actually eat.
WEEKLY CHECK INS
Every week, we're either seeing results or we're making changes. That's the big difference with one on one coaching.
LIVE COACHING CALLS
A weekly group check in call and a weekly live form check call, plus a Monday Mindset Live with me.
FORM FEEDBACK
Every week on the live form check call, we break down your technique. No guessing, no injuries from bad form.
PRIVATE COMMUNITY
People with busy lives doing the same work, holding each other to it.

Why I do this

Not just for looks, but for the rest of your life.

My grandfather fell because he didn't have the strength or mobility to catch himself. That fall put him in the hospital, and it was the beginning of the end. None of it had to happen.

That's why I coach. When everything in your life depends on you, your body is what it all runs on. You pay the price now, or you pay double later.

Wladimir Salas, founder of The Kettlebell Academy

This is for you if

  • You run a business or you're serious about your career
  • Your health slid while you took care of everything else
  • You want to get strong, not just smaller
  • You're ready to be coached and held to it

This is not for you if

  • You want to drop 20 pounds in 30 days for an event
  • You want a cheerleader but won't follow the plan
  • You won't track your food or train on the days you don't feel like it

Questions

How much does it cost?

It depends on how long you commit and how much support you need each week. Once I know what you need on the call, I'll give you an exact number.

Is there a minimum commitment?

Yes, 6 months. Most clients start with 6 or 12 months, and our most successful clients average 2 years in the Academy. Reaching a goal without shortcuts, in a way that lasts, takes time.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. Do the work for 90 days: show up for your workouts, track your food, and send in your weekly check ins. If you haven't made real progress toward the goal we set together on day one, you get your money back. Full terms will be in your coaching agreement.

Will I be working with you directly?

Yes, you work with me. The only exception is if you'd prefer a female coach. Brittany is a mom of three and an incredible coach, and some clients connect with her better.

How much time does this take each week?

Realistically, 3 to 5 hours. At minimum I recommend two workouts a week, plus the time it takes to meal prep and cook. Some clients train once a week, others three times. It depends on your schedule and how fast you want to move.

Am I too old or too out of shape to start?

No. Our oldest client is 73. And everyone who starts is out of shape. That's why they start. We choose the right exercises and intensity for where you are today.

I have an old injury, a bad back or bad knees. Can I still do this?

Yes. We adjust the exercises and the intensity so you progress at a pace your body can handle. Your program is built for you, not pulled from a template.

I've never used kettlebells. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Most of our clients had never used kettlebells properly before they joined. Kettlebells are what we specialize in, and we'll coach your technique until it's right.

Do I need a gym? What equipment do I need?

You don't need a gym, but you'll eventually need some equipment: kettlebells, dumbbells or a barbell. You don't have to buy anything before you start. We can begin with just your bodyweight. We specialize in kettlebells because they're the most efficient tool for training at home.

What if I travel a lot for work?

Your program goes where you go. Hotel gym, Airbnb, or just your bodyweight, we adjust your training to whatever you have.

What if I miss a week or life gets crazy?

We pick up where you left off. All or nothing thinking is what keeps people stuck in old patterns. When you can't do the best thing, you do the next best thing.

Do I have to follow a strict diet?

No. We use flexible dieting, which means counting macros. You eat the foods you like, in the right amounts. The goal is food freedom while you hit your numbers.

How is this different from an app or a YouTube program?

Real people are watching. You get a weekly group check in call with your coaches, a weekly live form check call where we break down your technique, and weekly check ins where we're either seeing results or making changes. We see when you log a meal or a workout, and when you don't. If you start slipping, you'll hear from us.

How fast will I see results?

Most people feel it in the first week: more energy, less inflammation, getting stronger. How fast you reach your specific goal depends on your effort and how much time you put in each week.

What happens on the call? Is it a sales pitch?

We break down your lifestyle, where you want to go with your health, what has stopped you in the past, and your history with training and nutrition. Then we talk about how to get past it. If I can help you, I'll propose a program. If I can't, I'll point you in the right direction.

Pay the price now, or pay double later.

Book a 45 minute call. We'll talk about where you are, where you want to be, and whether I'm the right coach to get you there. If it's not a fit, I'll tell you straight and point you in the right direction.
