Steve

Steve has been coaching CrossFit and fitness for more than eight years and brings over 15 years of experience as a CrossFit athlete. He is certified through the Aerobics and Fitness Association of America (AFAA) and has spent years helping athletes build strength, confidence, and resilience both inside and outside the gym.

Steve's connection to CrossFit Silicon Valley began when his kettlebell trainer shared space with the gym. When that coach moved on to pursue Eastern medicine, Steve stayed and became an important part of the CFSV community. His coaching philosophy centers on building a resilient community through consistent, incremental progress while applying the proven principles of CrossFit.

Members are often surprised to learn that Steve is the proud grandfather of two active and awesome grandsons. In the gym, he enjoys the skill and rhythm of butterfly pullups and is always looking for ways to improve his efficiency as a runner.

For new members, Steve encourages them to have fun and embrace the process of discovering what they're capable of. Focus on mechanics before intensity, avoid comparing your journey to anyone else's, and trust the combination of coaching, community, and consistent effort. Progress takes time, but it's worth it.
