About: Chris draws on his experience as an athlete as well as his continued studies in movement and the human body, combined with the psychology behind motivation, to promote positive and permanent improvements in Chapel Hill Training clients. From master class swimmers, to weekend warriors, Chris gets the most out of each individual by providing a challenging yet friendly environment to train in. Each program he develops is catered to your specific needs. These personalized programs reflect knowledge gained from his studies at UNC Chapel hill, interning under physical therapists at renowned facilities such as the Mayo Clinic, and most importantly, years of training experience.
Through his unique experiences and exposures to physical injuries, including his own, Chris has developed an innate ability to keep the spirit inspired despite physical challenges and to finesse a work-out plan that keeps the body moving forward in a healthy, desired direction. Having health conditions of his own, Chris knows how to work around daily challenges in order to reach goals both small and big. He has personally recovered from sprained/fractured ankles and wrists, a lumbar fracture, a torn labrum, and multiple instances of internal bleeding leading to atrophy in order to get back to competition form. His experiences include but are not limited to: weight loss, injury prevention and time improvement for runners, increasing strength, and continued physical therapy/post surgery.
