I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Zach as my personal trainer! From the moment I started working with him, I felt welcomed and motivated. Zach has an incredible ability to create a supportive environment while pushing me to reach my fitness goals.

What I appreciate most about Zach is his personalized approach. He took the time to understand my individual needs, preferences, and fitness level, crafting workouts that are both challenging and enjoyable. His extensive knowledge of nutrition and exercise science is impressive, and he always provides valuable tips that go beyond the gym.

I’ve seen significant improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall wellness since starting with Zach. It’s evident that he genuinely cares about his clients and their progress. If you’re looking for a personal trainer who is dedicated, knowledgeable, and inspiring, Zach is the one you want!

I can’t recommend him highly enough. Thank you, Zach, for helping me transform my fitness journey!

I can’t say enough about the positive impact Zac and Optimum Strength have had on our community. Zac is not only dedicated and knowledgeable in the field of fitness but genuinely cares about the people he serves. His commitment to his work and his community shines through in everything he does.

Optimum Strength has a welcoming atmosphere, and Zac’s expertise is evident in how he approaches each question with thoughtfulness and care. Over the summer, he worked with our Reaching Higher 7on7 athletes, providing a fantastic strength training program that brought out the best in them.

We highly recommend Optimum Strength for anyone looking to reach their fitness goals in a supportive and engaging environment.

Optimum Strength has been a great place for my kids to train. Zac is very knowledgeable about all facets of Olympic weightlifting, speed and agility, and the overall health and well being of my athletes needs. We have one that trains for football and our daughter trains for volleyball and we have seen significant improvement in both their skills in a short amount of time. We highly recommend checking Zac out for whatever your athletes needs may be. Thank you Zac.

Zac is an awesome trainer! I started going to him years ago to get quicker, faster and stronger - and Zac put together a perfect plan to get the progress I wanted.

He’s awesome with keeping the workouts fresh in order to keep you motivated and he also gives you a bunch of workouts to do on your own to prep for his sessions. Can’t recommend him enough!

I’ve been training with Zac for about a year now and I’ve had an awesome experience! He’s very flexible with my work schedule and cater the workouts to your level and needs. Zac also provides diet recommendations and monitoring along with exercises outside of the training days. I’m definitely seeing some improvements with my endurance and muscles! 10/10 would recommend!

Zac, is the best trainer I have ever had. I have shoulder and knee injuries and he helped me so much. He did a lot of stretching and exercises that didn’t aggravate my injuries. I was able to gain muscle with zero pain, and in turn my shoulders and knees feel so much better. He really really cares about his clients well-being. Zac is knowledgeable, passionate, easy to talk to and again the best trainer ever.

Working out on my own, I really felt like I was plateauing and I wasn't lifting any heavier. And with only 5 different exercises in the 5x5 program, I was looking for a wider variety of things to do at the gym since if the gym is really busy and the squat rack or power cage were taken up, I was at a loss of things to do.

I found Zac at Optimum Strength. I've been working out with him for the past four months, and I've definitely seen a difference so far. I've been able to lift much heavier than I was before through Zac's workout plan and motivation. He was able to give me assistive exercises to help get my other body parts stronger to help with the compound lifts I was looking to increase.

What else is great is that Zac trains out of a private gym. I see other trainers at 24 Hour, and I always thought it'd be weird to have a ton of people surrounding you. At the gym Zac built, it feels much more personal and the equipment is really new. You also don't have to worry about anybody getting in your way since there's usually only a couple other clients there at the same time.

My other reasons to see a trainer were accountability and pace. You're going to workout for sure if you have a training session schedule, and Zac is going to push you much harder than you can yourself. What I like about Zac is that he knows what goals I have in mind and is able to customize things in that direction. He's knowledgeable and is with you every step of the way. He could work with beginners to people who have seen the gym before. I'm no gym rat, but I know with Zac's background, he could help more advanced gym people. And with his help, my PR's keep just going up.

When we first started working out with Zac, we had very little experience and could barely get ourselves thru, Zac helped us build discipline and understand the real importance of strength, balance and posture in our daily lives. Zac is also great at helping you push yourself, and excellent at changing up your routine to not only add variety but also make sure that you are learning the right things the right way while keeping yourself entertained. I recommend folks to try a few sessions with him and see the change themselves!
