WANT TO KNOW MORE...
I'm a certified Body Tempering practitioner and ISSA certified Strength & Conditioning and Fitness Nutrition Specialist. I started personal training in 2010 and have been working in fitness since then in Boston, Seattle, and Alaska. I have more then a dozen specialty certifications in fitness. I'm currently in Massage school. In all my years working in fitness I've never seen anything that than can consistently provide as much of an immediate benefit and relief for as many different types of people as Body Tempering.
I'm the first person to provide Body Tempering as a service in Colorado, Iceland, and Alaska where I started. I've helped a wide range of athletes including elite and professional strongman, powerlifters, bodybuilders, Football players, combat sport athletes, and CrossFit athletes. I've also helped many fitness enthusiasts and people in the common population from teenagers to people in their 60's looking to improve their health, mobility, and movement quality.
In Addition to Body Tempering I offer exercise suggestions and nutrition habits that supports people's health, fitness, and performance goals

I scale the intensity of the session to be appropriate for each individual's needs. I work with people on a scale of intensity and never go past 8/10 with 0 being feeling like nothing and 10 being intolerable. I have tools that range in weight from 4 pounds to 250 pounds.
Body Tempering was created by Donnie Thompson, a world record powerlifter who became the first person to total 3'000 pounds in competition. Donnie used Body Tempering as a method to help prepare to train and for recovery. Body Tempering is used by the NFL, MLB, NBA and NCAA. Visit bodytempering.com to learn more about Body Tempering.
"I have bilateral golfers elbow from lifting and carrying crates all day. Stav was able to get my elbows feeling better after the first treatment. I’ve had three sessions so far and each session the symptoms have gotten better and I have been pain free for longer. Stav is a really good listener and excellent at coming up with an individualized treatment plan. Highly recommended."
-Lance Lockard
"Zach's patience, expertise, and programming knowledge have been invaluable. In the last six months, I've gained extensive insights into proper lifting mechanics, resulting in increased strength in the gym and on the bike."
-Andreas Knappe, Former NFL player for the Denver Broncos
