David - Higher Self Performance Coach
25+
Years Experience

Hi, I'm David

My path to coaching didn't start in a gym—it started in real life. Through military service, raising a family, and facing challenges most people never talk about, I learned what it truly means to push through pain, overcome fear, and never quit—no matter what life throws at you.

As a Marine Corps veteran, I carried those lessons into service, where discipline, mental toughness, and brotherhood became my foundation. The military didn't just build my physical strength—it forged an unbreakable mindset.

What Sets Me Apart

I don't just teach fitness—I understand the whole person. My diverse background allows me to support you through every challenge.

Strength Training Expert

Decades of experience in progressive strength training, proper form, and building functional power for real-world performance.

Nutrition Science

Evidence-based nutrition strategies tailored to your unique body, goals, and lifestyle.

Martial Arts / BJJ

Years of MMA and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu experience teaching discipline, technique, and the mental game of competition.

"I've faced more than most people will in a lifetime—trauma, family challenges, raising a child with special needs. Through it all, I've learned that real transformation happens when you address the mind, body, and spirit together. No matter what you're going through, I've been tested in ways that taught me how to guide you forward."
