Learning proper forms and movements can help prevent injury.

Andy Kaszubski, ACE
I graduated from MATC with a Certificate as a Health Club Technician and have been ACE certified since 2004. Since 2005 I have worked with people who from age 11 to 80 have had goals that varied from losing weight to training to do a triathlon. I have been playing sports since I was 7 and played in high school and college also. I have competed as a power lifter for a few years and won the state bench press in 2004 and 2006. I also enjoy volunteering as a high school track coach since 2006. My philosophy towards training would be that I love to find a client's limits and push them past that but have fun doing it, and make sure you are having fun also.
