In each of his professional roles, Rich Sadiv strives to get the most out of his athletes, implementing dynamic, isokinetic training based equally on high-power physical output and injury mitigation. He believes that quality coaching hinges on showing an athlete how much you care rather than how much you know — which creates the kind of trust and kinship necessary to achieve new levels of athletic success. Sadiv prides himself on having built his career and reputation from a grassroots position. A graduate of William Paterson University of New Jersey, he previously held supervising and managerial roles with UPS for over 20 years. There, he gleaned a variety of life fundamentals that would shape his training and coaching philosophy — namely quality control, organization, and personal responsibility. These values eventually flourished as Sadiv carved a considerable niche in competitive athletics. An active world-class powerlifter of over 30 years, he currently stands as one of the top deadlifters in the Masters category at 181/198 lbs. He has earned induction into two powerlifting halls of fame — as well as the nickname, “The Human Crane.”

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.
