Scott

Scott is a NASM Certified Personal Trainer who has been coaching for the past year. His fitness journey includes eight years of CrossFit, three years of powerlifting, and more than a decade of strength training and personal development.

Scott's introduction to CrossFit Silicon Valley goes all the way back to 2015. While working out at a traditional gym, he caught the CrossFit Games on television and became curious about the sport. After discovering there were gyms dedicated to CrossFit, he found CFSV and has been part of the community ever since.

Scott believes strength training builds far more than muscle. His coaching philosophy is rooted in the idea that discipline, resilience, and confidence developed in the gym carry over into every aspect of life. Members are often surprised to learn that until the age of 22, he absolutely hated weightlifting and strength training. That transformation gives him a unique appreciation for how much people can grow when they're willing to step outside their comfort zone.

In the gym, Scott enjoys the simplicity and raw strength of the barbell strict press. While burpees may never make his list of favorite movements, he embraces them as another opportunity to build mental toughness and resilience.

For new members, Scott's advice is simple: never let anyone convince you that you're incapable of achieving your goals. With consistency, effort, and belief in yourself, you can accomplish far more than you think.
