Book Private Strength-and-speed Lessons with Coach Maximilliano

I am a highly driven fitness professional with 6 years of active duty service in the U.S. Marine Corps, bringing unmatched discipline and commitment to every client. I hold credentials as an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer CPT with a specialization in Strength and Conditioning, and an ISSA Certified Nutritionist. My practical expertise is forged in competition: I am a competitive $\text{IPF}$ powerlifter (competing in both the U.S. and Japan) and a former elite athlete, having played 8 years of baseball (reaching state championships) and competing at the CIF Division 1 state level in cross country and track and field.

I help athletes and dedicated individuals break through plateaus by combining military-grade intensity with evidence-based science. I help you maximize strength and power, utilizing proven strength and conditioning principles to drastically increase your lifts, explosive power, and speed. I develop tailored programs that enhance the exact movements and energy systems required for your sport (e.g., rotational power for baseball, endurance for track). I provide certified nutrition coaching to optimize body composition, accelerate recovery, and ensure you have the energy to dominate your training sessions and competitions. I integrate corrective exercises and mobility work to minimize injury risk and sustain peak performance throughout your season.

My sessions are structured, progressive, and focused on quality over quantity. A typical training session begins with a Dynamic Warm-up (5-10 min) which includes targeted mobility drills and activation exercises specifically chosen to prepare the central nervous system and prime the muscles for the movements ahead. The Primary Focus (30-40 min) is the core of the session, focused on your primary goal, whether it's max-effort lifting (squat, bench, deadlift), explosive plyometrics, or high-intensity conditioning drills. Technique is strictly monitored and corrected. This is followed by Accessory & Sport-Specific Work (15-20 min), which involves targeting supporting muscle groups, addressing imbalances, or integrating movements that directly mimic skills in your sport. The session concludes with a Cool-down & Recovery (5-10 min) consisting of static stretching, foam rolling, and discussion of post-session nutrition and recovery protocols to optimize your progress before the next session.

Cross Country Coach in High school, who led me onto my high school record and CIF state championships for cross country and track and field.

I am a highly disciplined and certified professional ready to coach you to elite physical condition. My foundation is built on 6 years of active duty service in the U.S. Marine Corps, instilling an unparalleled commitment to execution and results. I am an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) with a specialization in Strength and Conditioning, and an ISSA Certified Nutritionist.

My expertise is practical and proven across multiple disciplines. For those pursuing strength sports, powerlifting, bodybuilding, or Olympic lifting, I bring firsthand knowledge as a competitive IPF powerlifter. My best combined total is a massive 1,440 lbs (520 lb Squat, 355 lb Bench-press, 560 lb Deadlift) and I have competed both domestically and abroad (USA/Japan). This experience translates directly into programs designed for maximal, safe strength gains and superior aesthetic development.

For endurance athletes and runners, I draw upon my history as a CIF Division 1 state-level athlete in cross country and track and field. My running stats include a high school record 4:47 mile, a 16:47 3-mile, and a 1:52 800-meter time, offering targeted conditioning that improves speed, stamina, and durability. And for baseball players and other field athletes, I leverage my 8 years of baseball experience, including reaching the Little League State Championship, to develop explosive, sport-specific power and rotational velocity.

I help individuals, from service members to dedicated athletes and busy adults, break through training plateaus and achieve their most ambitious goals. My coaching style merges military-grade intensity with science-backed programming, focusing on flawless technique to guarantee safety and maximize output. Whether your goal is a competitive total, superior body composition, increased endurance, or peak athletic performance, I provide the customized training and nutrition required to get you there.
