Your trainer
I’m Darius.
I grew up in Mesa, the youngest of four, and played linebacker until I tore my ACL at nineteen. The physical therapist who rebuilt that knee is the reason I do this.
I spent eight years on the floor of a big gym in Tempe: 5 AM openings, a thousand intro sessions, and a lot of people who paid every month and came twice. In 2015 a client broke her hip and couldn’t drive to the gym, so I drove to her. She never missed a session again.
That was the lesson. People keep training when it’s at their door, at their hour, with someone who knows their knees and their calendar. Eleven years later every one of my clients trains at home, and most of them have been with me longer than three years.

Questions
Before you book
What do I need at home?
A space about the size of a parking spot, inside or out. Garage, living room, patio or a guest room all work. I bring everything else in the car.
How does the $50 hold work?
It holds your time and comes off the session. Move or cancel up to 24 hours before and it moves with you. Inside 24 hours the session counts, unless you’re sick; then we just reschedule.
What about the summer heat?
June to September, patio sessions end by 8 AM. After that we go inside, to the garage with a fan or your living room. Nobody trains outside at 110°F.
I have a bad knee, a bad back, a new hip.
That’s most of my clients. Bring your surgeon’s or physical therapist’s notes to the first session and we build around them. I’ll tell you when something is a question for them, not me.
Do you train teenagers?
From fourteen, with a parent at home for the session. Mostly athletes getting ready for a season.
Are you certified and insured?
Certified strength and conditioning specialist, CPR and AED certified every two years, and $2 million of liability insurance. Certificates on request.
Book
Book your first morning
Pick a day and a time. $50 holds it, and Darius texts you the day before to ask about the space, the parking and anything that hurts.
