Meet the trainer — Sam 💪
Intentional is the word Sam keeps coming back to. The movements, the timing, the themes all build toward one complete system, and the trainers make sure it’s done right. No wasted reps, no guesswork.
“Strong for life” for Sam means never having to slow down. He’s climbing 14ers, running marathons, and racing bikes for 100+ miles, and getting old is not going to take that away from him. It’s also about showing up for his kids: when his son yells “daddy throw me!” at the lake, he wants to be able to launch him in the air every single time.
Favorite interval? Durability. He loves the longer work to rest cycles, that steady grind will humble you fast if you don’t respect it.
On the floor: strict on form, loose on fun. Cheating the movement is not an option, but once the work is done, a good laugh is the best way to catch your breath.
What members would never guess: Sam spent 6 months in Ukraine as part of a NATO joint task force, training Ukrainian land forces. He still speaks a little Ukrainian, one b**r, please: “Одне пиво, будь ласка.” 🍺
