Brandon entered the fitness industry in 2002 as a personal trainer at a big box gym in St. Louis. He moved to Los Angeles for 10 years to pursue acting in Hollywood then returned to St. Louis to raise his children. He restarted personal training. After program hopping and experimenting, Brandon felt something was missing from his clients’ training.
When he found Starting Strength, he was blown away by the simplicity of the program and the scientific depth of the material. Brandon started his own Novice Linear Progression, quickly experiencing strength gains he hadn’t found in previous training programs. He began coaching the Starting Strength method with clients and immediately saw them benefiting from the training.
His trainees experienced noticeable improvements in everyday life from getting stronger, found motivation in seeing the weight on the bar going up, and felt successful focusing on just the main lifts. Brandon is excited to be opening Starting Strength St. Louis and helping more people improve their lives through strength.
