You Were Not Built to Slow Down

Most training advice quietly assumes decline once you turn 40. Mine does not.

Strength, power, and movement coaching for people who still want to feel athletic. 30 years in the trenches. Clients training strong from their 20s into their 80s.

4 Quadrants Private Coaching

One on one virtual coaching for people who want to stay strong, fast, and capable for decades. Most programs train one or two qualities and let the rest fade. I coach all four, dosed for your body, your schedule, and your history.

Strength

The base everything else stands on. Built to protect your joints and keep your muscle as you age.

Power and speed

The first quality to fade with age and the last one most programs train. We get it back, safely.

Mobility

Access to the positions your body has lost, rebuilt from the ground up: feet, hips, and spine.

Endurance

An aerobic engine that supports your training instead of draining your recovery.

More is not better. Better is better.

How it starts

Apply

A short application so I understand your goals, your training history, and your schedule.
We talk

If it looks like a fit, we get on a call and I assess how you move, so we start with your weakest quadrant instead of a guess.
You train

You get a plan built around all four quadrants, and I adjust it as you progress.

What clients say

“Franz’s coaching helped me regain much of the athleticism I lost over decades. At 55 I am getting leaner, stronger and more athletic than I have been in 30 years. With Franz’s coaching I have rewired the way my body works and the perspective I have on aging.”

Charles RudolphEntrepreneur

“12 years working with Franz and he’s transformed my entire approach to strength, mobility, power and endurance. Aging well is a reality for me and I plan on getting ever better with his coaching.”

Craig LeeTech

“Franz has kept me functioning at a very high level for over 16 years. Now that I am in my mid-60’s I have maintained my strength, power and mobility and have no plans of slowing down.”

About Franz

I have been coaching for nearly 30 years. I started as a competitive sprinter, built one of San Diego’s most successful personal training gyms, and taught kettlebell certifications around the world as a Senior Instructor for Pavel Tsatsouline and StrongFirst. My work has also been featured by Tony Robbins.

Today I coach people from their 20s into their 80s, online and in person here in San Diego. The goal is always the same: keep you strong, fast, and moving well long after most people assume you should slow down.

I am 52, and I still train the way I coach. I sprint, I lift, and I keep learning new skills. Off the clock, you will find me with my wife and our four kids, watching the Warriors, or enjoying a good mezcal.
