Get to know Coach Preston

About Me:

I played football & baseball, and ran track in highschool. I played Wide Receiver at Duke University from 2008-2011.

Currently a Strength and Conditioning Coach at Florida State University.

How I can help you improve your game:

My coaching is grounded in years of experience and a master's in Strength and Conditioning. I prioritize building strong relationships with athletes and clients, taking the time to learn about them through questions and conversations. This helps me tailor training to each athlete's needs. I focus on mastering the basics first, as they form the foundation for long-term success. With this solid base, I introduce variety to support each athlete's specific goals. Athleticism takes time to develop, and my approach ensures sustainable progress.

What a typical training session looks like with me:

Training sessions vary based on the athlete’s age, experience, sport, and season. Introductory sessions include movement assessments, instruction, and general strength and conditioning to prepare for more intense training. The assessments help identify strengths and areas for improvement, ensuring injury prevention and athletic development. Athletes will be expected to work hard and give their best effort, with opportunities to enjoy the process while pushing themselves.

Career summary and accomplishments:

I started coaching middle school football and track in 2012, while also working as a high school biology and chemistry teacher and personal trainer. In 2016, I became a college strength and conditioning coach at the University of Memphis, training the football, men’s, and women’s tennis teams. In 2022, I moved to New York, where I trained the Long Island University football, men’s lacrosse, women’s soccer, and rowing teams until December 2024. Now based in Tallahassee, I assist with Florida State Football training and have privately coached youth athletes throughout my career.

Best coach I ever had:

David Cutcliffe, my head football coach in college. He always taught me to leave a place better than I found it, and to always give my best effort.

What athletes and parents should know about me:

I’m passionate about coaching and helping athletes improve. As a parent, I understand the importance of safety and wanting the best for your child. I guarantee a safe yet challenging training environment. Achieving meaningful goals takes effort, and sometimes we need someone to push us and hold us accountable. I’m here to help with that.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.

Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.

Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!

We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.

Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.

Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.

The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.

Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.

AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.

At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
