What’s it like to train with Tim?
Tim has developed an extensive collection of exercises throughout his career. Though he strongly encourages individuals to challenge their strength and condition, Tim places greater emphasis on safety by focusing on form and technique, rather than weight.
If you think personal trainers are too pushy, you should know that Tim is especially sensitive to physical limitations. His approach and personal understanding stems from his own battle with lower back structural issues. You can be sure Tim is highly aware of and attentive to lower back safety and care. But you don’t have to take our word for it. Learn what others have to say about training with Tim by reading the reviews.
