Blacksmith Performance

Will is so kind and chill. His energy is both relaxing and energizing. He makes me want to do better everytime I leave a session with him. Even when I don't there is no judgement, he is a true healer.

BACK PAIN GONEI had suffered a herniated disc last year and have been struggling to move past my sciatic nerve pain. In our first session, Will was able to assess and pinpoint what was causing my pain. Within 3 treatments I was feeling 90% and was able to compete in a CrossFit competition. I'm grateful for Will's thoughtful approach and impactful treatment. If you're struggling with back pain, I would 100% recommend a treatment with Will!

Will is a great personal trainer! He takes the time to fully understand his client’s and creates custom programs in order to successfully help them meet their fitness goals. I’ve been lucky enough to have trained with Will for several years and would highly recommend anyone looking to start training (regardless where they are in their fitness journey)!

Will is an attentive and knowledgeable coach/therapist. I was fortunate to experience a facial stretch therapy demo from him during a time my shoulder had been inflamed and was causing it to feel heavy and limp at rest. Will had focused on stretching my upper body and neck, and when he was done, it was the first time my shoulder/arm had felt normal since the pain had started a week prior. It wasn’t temporary relief either. I felt like the treatment really encouraged better circulation and expedited the healing process. Thanks again for that Will and all the shoulder strengthening exercises you gave me after for prevention.

Blacksmith Performance was one of the best decisions I made in 2021 starting to work from home and leaving the traditional big box gym. Will offers a great virtual personal service, his apps and software solutions track your workouts daily and include instructional videos if you get lost.When you reach out to him he is quick to respond, always patient and understanding. If you are more experienced I guarantee he will show you something new as he is highly educated. I feel very lucky to work with him and experience great results.

Will is an excellent trainer - knowledgeable, patient, kind, very experienced, and an absolute pleasure to work with.I have been training with Will for over a year. The program he creates for me is individualized and progressive, targeting specific fitness goals and needs. Will consistently monitors my skills and progress, introduces new workout concepts, keeps me motivated, and offers practical feedback and tips on how to improve during each exercise - as well as ongoing suggestions on nutrition, maintaining good health, and use of supplements. As a result, I have noticed significant fitness growth in the areas of strength, mobility, endurance, physique, and smoothness in workout completion.As I have been training virtually with limited equipment due to the pandemic, Will helps me become creative with using furniture and objects from home to complete workouts and get decent results.I would recommend Will to anyone who’s looking for solid and reliable guidance on fitness and wants to take it seriously as a healthy lifestyle and habit.

Will is a one of a kind fitness trainer who designs programs specifically to fit your fitness goals, including diet and lifestyle habits, and he'll work with you to make any necessary adjustments as you progress through the program. He's very friendly and approachable, and will take all your thoughts and concerns into consideration when designing your program.My fitness journey has its ups and downs, but Will has accommodated to all the questions and concerns I had raised. Whether it be that an exercise feels too tough or that I'm struggling with changing my diet, he provides advice and suggestions and also makes adjustments to the program to ensure I'm comfortable and still adequately challenged so we can still achieve results.I don't consider myself well versed in fitness, but I've already learned so much from Will and am very grateful I was acquainted with him when I started my fitness journey. My self confidence has greatly improved and I no longer feel anxious about my fitness and health!
