How did you find out about Burn?
I received a call on my resume! I never thought I would get back into training again, and almost didn’t even call back… I could not be more grateful that I did!
Go-to workout routine?
I come from a power lifting background. I LOVE to lift heavy. I typically will superset everything I do, and continue to add weight each set until I am at my max weight!
Favorite burst training workout?
Sprint 100 yards… 15 full burpees. Sprint 100 yards… 14 full burpees. Try to beat my time whenever I do this one!
Favorite strength training workout?
Squats, squats, and more squats! Then some arms mixed in!
Favorite cardio workout?
Anyone who knows me, knows cardio isn’t my game..! But there’s only one way to get better. My true favorite is simply lifting weights faster – otherwise a trail run on a beautiful, fall Wisconsin day!
Go-to pre workout snack?
Banana and my favorite, Ignite!
Go-to post workout snack?
Afterburn, a couple eggs, and a chicken breast! Pro tip: to help satisfy your sweet tooth: add half chocolate almond milk/half water/ and chocolate afterburn!
Favorite healthy meal?
I’m simple… either salmon and quinoa, or else chicken and broccoli!
Favorite healthy restaurant in your area?
The Nucleus!

My Adidas powerlifting shoes… Also any old high school football t shirt with the sleeves cut off.
