Opened The Crosstraining Club in Westwood, Kansas in October 1996

“I think I bring a lot of enthusiasm, a lot of knowledge and a lot of experience to the table. Love working with people and helping them achieve their goals.’’

I came to work with Tim at The Crosstraining Club in 2007. Tim and I have been best friends since 1974. I graduated from Manhattan High School in 1977 with athletic honors. Recognized as State Champion in the shot put and discus senior year and named to high school track and field All-American team; Two-time all-conference and all-state selection in football. Played football and competed in track and field at Garden City Community College. All conference offensive guard in 1979 and junior college All-American in both the shot put and discus. Played football at the University of Iowa under legendary coach Hayden Fry. Kansas City became my home in 1981. Employment started with International Fitness Centers as a trainer, then sales and eventually management. My Father, Bill, was assistant track coach at K-State specializing in the throwing events and strength training. Interest in physical fitness came from Dad. I guess the apple didn’t fall too far from the tree.
