About Coach Sam

Born and raised in Longview Texas, Coach Sam began his athletic experience as a young child. His passion for sports has never been limited to one field, rather he embraced all opportunities to grow in performance. Though he has been a part of baseball and football teams, he has never encountered a sport that he doesn't like. It wasn't unusual to find him on the tennis court, soccer field, or basketball court; always ready for practice and to grow as an athlete. Coach Sam was an all conference tight end in college, and played 3 years of Professional Rugby. Since retirement, has been coaching and training athletes and adults to a healthier lifestyle.

His enthusiasm to improve his personal performance expanded naturally in training others. He has worked with a variety of athletes through the years and officially opened his clientele in 2022. He knows firsthand the importance of improving strength, speed, and mobility for athletes.

"I enjoy pouring into my athletes and seeing the transformation that occurs when they give their best effort. Seeing the strides they make in and out of the weight-room only fuels me as their performance coach. I'm excited to work with you or your athlete to help you take the next step towards your goals!"
