Michael Beck   Advanced Fitness Solutions

A Strength & Conditioning Coach focused on coaching & developing others to improve performance, overcome obstacles, and achieve goals safely utilizing sensible training methodology.

Training should be deliberate and with purpose. Practice doesn't make perfect, practice makes permanent...so do it right, or get good at doing it wrong.

Bio

With 25 years of experience in Strength & Conditioning, my coaching experience has developed into a "long-term athletic development" approach. I utilize my education in Exercise Physiology and backgrounds in nutrition, sport psychology, functional strength training, and speed & agility to address all the components of Sports Performance and how to better accommodate for long-lasting, balanced outcomes.

My Coaching Philosophy relies on integrating these components of Sports Performance to better develop the athlete as a whole, addressing limiters and obstacles, while reducing the un-necessary likelihood of overuse injury. All athletes require the same combination of performance attributes, but in their individual capacity.
