“After a few months of working with Nathan I began to notice that I wasn’t in pain every day anymore. His programming was specific to me, my lifestyle, and the demands of my training at the time. I felt stronger in every race from the mile to the marathon. He cares about his clients as individuals and takes the time to understand you as a person and athlete. He meets you exactly where you are with a program that is functional and sustainable.”

“Working with Nathan helped me identify areas for improvement in my strength training and injury prevention exercises. He understands the importance of not only building rapport, but a lasting relationship to cultivate understanding and belief in the training methods. After listening to my running background and determining what variables have an effect on my training, we developed a plan together. Before working with him, I tended to overlook many variables in my life that could have an effect on my performance. I felt cared about when Nate would ask me about my general well-being at the start of each session. This had a profound effect on my training. You’d be hard-pressed to find another professional that compares to what he is able to provide.”

“In my 15+ years in sport, nothing has elevated my performance more than strength training with Nathan. Handing over the reins to Nathan for strength training was the best decision I could’ve made. His programming is tactful and specific with each movement or lift having a purpose. In my first year with Nathan, I took 46 minutes off my best (Kona Qualifying) Ironman time. He is patient, intelligent, timely, and cares about his athletes.”

“I was referred to Nathan as a senior in high school for the continuation of physical therapy and further strength training after having surgery for a navicular stress fracture. Nathan was invaluable in my return to racing with his extensive work with runners, knowledge of running injuries, rehab and injury prevention. I was able to have a successful senior track season and continue setting PRs at Oklahoma State where I have since become an All-American in cross country. I have continued working with Nathan for strength training every opportunity I can in the summer and winter breaks when I am home from school. He is flexible with my schedule and easy to reach via text or call. Since working with Nathan I feel stronger, healthier and less injury prone.”

“Nathan has been an asset to many of our athletes, especially those with the most complex injuries. His expertise as a physical therapist and running coach gain him instant credibility. His thoughtful and integrated approach allows him to uncover and address underlying issues. We have thrown some of our toughest cases at Nathan. His ability to create tailored solutions has improved many collegiate running careers.”

“Nathan has taught me skills for sustaining a healthy and long running career. My running times have decreased. My training capacity and ability to run higher mileage have improved. He individualizes each training session based on my needs for that day. I really like the way Nathan gets to know each client makes their progress and success about the athlete. Working with Nathan has reinforced my confidence in my body.”

“I started working with Nathan when I had a stress fracture in middle school. We’ve worked together for 7-8 years during the off-seasons and I’ve had zero injuries. I ran personal bests every year through high school and now through college. I always look forward to my strength sessions. They are tailored to my needs and Nathan will adjust them if my training is at its peak. The strength sessions are always designed to work with my training schedule.”

“Since working with Nathan, I have felt stronger on runs. The most notable change has been in my back strength. I notice my back doesn’t hurt as much with day to day activities. The benefits haven’t just been running specific, they have positively affected my day-to-day abilities.”
