What Our Athletes Are Saying
★★★★★
Within a year of her guidance, she led me to place 2nd at IPF Worlds in the 66kg Sub-Junior division. More importantly, she has taken the time to individualize my training to fit my specific goals and characteristics. This has made my progression seamless and put a sense of purpose and clarity into my training that was hard for me to discover on my own. She is responsive with advice on each workout log and always willing to give the advice and answers I need to improve. Nothing but a simple, effective, and fun experience to work with Kristen.

★★★★★
I recently competed at the IPF World Classic in the Master 1 division after working with Kristen for 4 months. In that time, I added 25kg to my total—earning the silver medal overall in the 72kg weight class, a silver medal for my squat, and a bronze medal for both the bench and the dead. Kristen was knowledgeable, patient, and fun. It was always easy to contact her if I had questions, and she was supportive throughout the competition. I look forward to working with her again to prepare for USAPL Raw Nationals.
