Work with a coach with proven results

I always love training with Ben! I'm pretty serious about my fitness and athletic performance (I'm still convinced I'm going to be the "next big thing" in Men's League Basketball) and I trust Ben's knowledge 100%.

His training methodologies are well researched and he'll tell you all about it if you want to nerd out with him, but only if you want. Most importantly, Ben makes training fun and engaging. I always feel like my form is correct, and I'm pushing myself while feeling energized. I'd recommend him to anyone

I'm so grateful to have found Ben to guide me on my fitness journey. Before I started training, I almost never went to the gym because I felt so uncomfortable, but my work with Ben has given me so much more confidence that I now feel better about going on my own. I'm so much stronger than when I started - stronger than I thought possible!

I’ve been training with Ben 3 times a week, and it’s honestly been a 10/10 experience. He’s incredibly attentive and thoughtful about my fitness goals, consistently tracking progress and making personalized adjustments so every session builds on the last.

Beyond that, Ben is just a genuinely great person to work with. He’s an excellent listener, super easy to talk to, and brings great energy to every session. He’s also super knowledgeable about fitness and physiology and is a great resource for helping you to understand your progress and your body.

If you’re looking for a trainer who is thoughtful, organized, and truly invested in your success, I can’t recommend Ben highly enough.

Somehow I got to 50 with just a string of expensive, but largely unused gym memberships to my name. Being fit and moving well in middle age is just an aspiration without the right tools in place. That’s where Ben comes in…

Ben has been training me in strength and conditioning for two years now. He is knowledgeable, kind, and patient – teaching the exercises step by step and offering modifications and guidance that leads to success.

It’s not just time spent getting fitter, but it’s also fun. Ben is personable and funny and it’s enjoyable to spend time with him. He cares deeply about the success of his clients. I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to train with Ben – my life and health are definitely better off. He's fantastic!

Training with me

With each and every client I work with I have one simple rule that stands above all others: don't get hurt. Safety comes before everything else - if we get hurt, then nothing else matters.

That said, we're still going to work hard, and we're still going to get strong! The way I train my clients is comprehensive, making sure that my clients have the peace of mind to know they're leaving nothing on the table.

Ideally, we're still going to have some fun along the way! I'll admit, I'm a talker, and I get along best with clients who enjoy some good conversation - so long as it doesn't come at the expense of the workout.

I currently train clients in person in two locations: at MBSC in Woburn, MA and at Core Collective in Brookline Village.

Get to know me

For over 10 years, I've worked as a Strength Coach and Personal Trainer, helping hundreds of people - from everyday folks to athletes of the highest level - along their fitness journeys. Seven of those years have been spent at Mike Boyle Strength & Conditioning, which has been named the best gym in America by Men's Health magazine, and one of the nation's best by Women's Health alike.

I also work as an educator within the fitness industry, and I've been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to travel the world teaching and mentoring other coaches and trainers.

Outside of fitness, I'm a passionate outdoor and music enthusiast. As often as possible, I like to spend my free time snowboarding or surfing.
