Learn to enjoy movement.
I'm Ethan, a personal fitness trainer in San Francisco, and I want you to move fluidly and without pain. I will analyze your current movements and we will work together to achieve the athlete that is YOU.
No recycled workouts. No trendy nonsense. Just smart, adaptive strength training that helps you move better, feel stronger, and show up like an athlete in your own life.
This is for people who want more than “just a workout.” Whether you’re rebuilding, pushing for performance, or just tired of feeling stiff and slow, I’ve got a seat for you.
All I need is your effort.

Youth Training in San Francisco: Build Strong, Move Smart, Stay Healthy
Young athletes don’t just need more reps; they need smart, well-structured coaching that sets them up for long-term success. My youth training program in San Francisco is built around movement quality, strength development, and injury prevention. Whether your kid is brand new to the weight room or already playing at a high level, being an athlete myself, I focus on building a strong foundation that carries over into sport and life.
I specialize in youth baseball and basketball strength training, helping athletes improve power, mobility, and body control. I don’t just “lift weights”; I teach young athletes how to move with purpose, train with intention, and develop confidence in their own bodies.
Sessions are private, safe, and tailored to the individual, not some one-size-fits-all or general workout plans.
My Youth training is perfect for:
Middle school & high school athletes
Baseball and Basketball players working on athletic development
Kids who need strength but aren’t ready for big-box gyms

Why Train With Me
You could hit up the nearest franchise gym and get a random certified personal trainer who clocks in and out like it’s a day job. Or… you could train with someone who actually gives a rip.
I’m not just here to count reps. I’m here to help you understand how your body moves, where things break down, and how to fix them, all while getting stronger and building momentum.
What you’ll get:
1-on-1 training at a private training gym in San Francisco
A clear plan, adjusted as you grow
No fluff, no wasted reps, and definitely no “let’s just destroy you” sessions
Feedback that actually helps you move forward
Real conversations about what’s working and what needs to change
I'm the male fitness trainer who wants you to leave the session feeling better than when you walked in. Not broken. Not confused. Just clear, strong, and ready to go.
You Don’t Need to Get Fit Before You Start
I hear this all the time: “I’ll start once I’m in better shape.”
Forget that. That’s not how this works.
If you’ve got a body, you’re ready to train. Whether you’re stiff, sore, out of practice, or coming in hot from a long layoff, I’ve worked with it all. You bring the effort, I bring the plan.
Let’s build something that lasts.
