Nick is a long-time educator and coach in the fitness and training industries. His philosophy centers around the idea that coaches are MORE. More than rep counters or exercise experts. That coaches are healthcare practitioners and should embrace that role & responsibility. His education focuses on empowering coaches to do just that. Within that, Nick has developed a particular expertise in sleep & recovery. He saw a void in how sleep was focused on and taught in the industry. Despite the fact that sleep impacts every single client goal, it doesn't get nearly enough coaching attention. Nick created a comprehensive certification that provides coaches with all that they need to embrace sleep into their process.

Nick is also the organizer and host of the Recovery and Sleep Summit, one of the industry's largest virtual events. You can register for free or sign up to receive all the event's recordings.
