About
Coach first. Competitor always.
Who I am
My name is Max Kaiser, an ACE-certified personal trainer and competitive strongman based in Brooklyn, coaching clients with goals from achieving their first pull-up to competing in national-level competitions and beyond. I believe in walking the walk, and I chase my goals and dreams just as hard as I ask my clients to. The only requirements to training with me are to try hard and believe in yourself.
I have worked with many clients on low back and shoulder rehab, and I prioritize injury prevention and good technique first. I create custom periodized programs for each client and work toward each person's unique goals with unique methods, but unified systems. Whether it is strength, muscle gain, fat loss, or just moving and feeling better as an athlete or as a person, I will get you to your goal.
