Strength Coaching · Denver, CO · In-Person & Online
You've been told you need to lift weights. Or maybe you already know, and you just need a coach who meets you where you are, in a space where you'll never feel judged. That's exactly what I do.
Not sure where to begin? Start here.
You're Not Alone
Most of my clients are smart, accomplished people who've built successful careers and full lives. Fitness just wasn't part of the equation, until now.
All of that is normal. And none of it means you can't become someone who genuinely loves lifting. I've seen it happen dozens of times.
Who I Work With
You've never really trained with weights. You're in your 40s or 50s, you're ready to change that, but you need someone who won't make you feel behind before you've started.
Your physician said "you need to build muscle" or "resistance training is essential." They're right. Now you need a coach who can translate that prescription into a real plan.
You've had gym memberships. Done phases. Fallen off. You're not looking for another program to fail, you want a sustainable approach built around your actual life.
If any of that resonated, you're exactly who I built this for.

When I started with Geof, weightlifting felt intimidating and completely foreign. From day one, he made it approachable and tailored to where I was. His consistency, encouragement, and attention to detail helped me get stronger, physically and mentally. Now, I actually look forward to my workouts and feel confident in the gym.Jess T.
Before training with Geof, my workouts were inconsistent and my progress had stalled. Since working with him, I've gained strength, endurance, and confidence. He's helped me master core lifts and build skill with kettlebells, a personal goal. Beyond the gym, I'm less stressed, more disciplined, and mentally stronger.Alex S.
What attracted me was the gym setting. I knew I wouldn't be judged or intimidated. That, along with Geof's encouragement and knowledge, has made exercise a non-negotiable part of my life, and it's paid off in more ways than I could have imagined.Mary A.
I started working with Geof to improve my workouts and quickly realized I hadn't been activating the right muscles. His calm, attentive coaching completely changed my focus. I've always worried about injury, but his slow, steady approach has helped me feel confident and supported. My strength and body awareness have grown more than I expected.Kevin N.
I had no clue where to start with exercise. I was intimidated, but I took a leap of faith and contacted Geof, and I'm so glad I did. In 12 months of working together I got stronger, more capable, and discovered a new passion: powerlifting.Bonnie S.
One of my goals was to hike one of Colorado's 14,000-foot peaks. After nine months of consistent training with Geof, I achieved it. After that, I know I can do anything.Suzanne B.
Travel makes up a lot of our lives, so we needed a program that fit that reality. Geof's online training did exactly that. The workouts complemented our lives and kept us moving. We've never felt better.Brett & Selma
Honestly, I didn't think personal training over Zoom would really work. I was skeptical. But over time it's become my default way of working with Geof, and I can't imagine going back. The sessions are exactly the same as being in the gym together. And because I travel so much, it's like having a personal trainer who travels with me.Sarah B.
