Let’s find the right coaching fit.
The next step is a focused 15-minute call to talk through your goals, your current training, and what is keeping you from making the progress you want.
If we agree that individual coaching is the right fit, your next step is to book your initial consult so we can start the coaching process.
Coaching for athletes with a clear target.
This coaching is built for competitive Functional Fitness athletes who want their training organized around a specific goal, not another generic program with more volume.
It may be a strong fit if:
- You want a coach who communicates clearly, reviews your training, and gives you honest feedback.
- You are preparing for a specific competition, qualification, or competitive division.
- You have outgrown generalized programming.
- You are working hard but are no longer sure your training is addressing the right problems.
- You need help deciding what to prioritize, so you can stop trying to train everything at once.
- You are prepared to train consistently, communicate honestly, and commit to a long-term process.
You do not need to be a CrossFit Games athlete.
You do need a meaningful goal and the willingness to train for it deliberately.
The experience behind the process.
Every one of those results came from individualized coaching, not a template handed to hundreds of athletes.
Training should start with the demands of your goal.
Most programs are just a collection of exercises without direction.
My coaching begins by determining what your goal actually requires, comparing those demands with the athlete you are today, and deciding which gaps matter most.
- 01ASSESSMENT
We establish where you are now using your training history, competition results, current capacities, and testing that maps to your sport.
- 02DEMANDS ANALYSIS
We define what your target competition and division require. That gives the training process a clear destination.
- 03PRIORITIZATION
We rank the gaps between where you are and where you need to be. If you try to train everything at once, you rarely improve what matters most.
- 04PERIODIZATION
We build your training backward from the competition calendar, developing the right qualities at the right time.
You do not need more random work.
You need a clearer target, better decisions, and training that changes as you do.
Fully individualized. Week to week.
Your program is built around your goals, competitive timeline, training availability, injury history, strengths, and current limitations.
Every session you log provides information.
Your results and videos are reviewed against your workload, movement exposure, rate of progress, and the demands of your next competition. Your training is then adjusted based on what the data and your performance show.
That means:
- Your training has a clear purpose and progression.
- Your highest-priority limitations receive enough attention to change.
- Your workload reflects what you can actually adapt to.
- Your plan changes when your performance, schedule, or competitive season changes.
- You understand what we are working on and why it matters.
This is coaching, not programming delivered once and left on autopilot.
Proof from the athletes.
"In 15 years of CrossFit I've met no coach like him."
Tyler Tosunian · 2026 CrossFit Games athlete"I've worked with Kyle for close to 7 years, and in 15 years of CrossFit I've met no coach like him. His communication, attention to detail, and care set the standard for what it means to be a great coach. He's also been there as an athlete: he's competed at the highest levels and continues to do so. My only regret is not starting with him sooner."
"When it comes to exercise science... I can say with confidence there hasn't been another individual who has taught me more than Kyle. His support, education, perspective, and mindset have all made me a better athlete, but also a better coach and human being."
"Kyle is the one I trust. I've worked with him for more than four years. His coaching is personalized, detail-oriented, and results-driven. If you want a coach who truly cares about your progress, Kyle is the one to go to."
"Kyle has been my ride-or-die coach, from competing in the teen division at the Games to competing at Semifinals. He cares about his athletes as people first, then as athletes. If it weren't for Kyle's unwavering guidance and support, I wouldn't be the athlete I am today."
"Working with Kyle has been a game changer. Since starting with him last year, I've made a ton of progress in the areas I needed most. The intent and direction of training are always clear, and it's completely tailored to me."
