Health Coach

As a nationally competitive bodybuilder and powerlifter, I know how to help individuals navigate the extremes of competition while balancing and not compromising on their short or long term health.

About Joshua

Based in Richmond, Virginia, Joshua joins Marek with a decade of experience in the fitness industry and two years as the General Manager of a Golds Gym. His journey in fitness began at an early age—he competed in his first bodybuilding show the week he turned 16 and has since achieved remarkable success, including placing in the top 5 at North Americans. Homeschooled throughout his life, Joshua developed a keen interest in biochemistry from a young age, which he continues to integrate into his approach to health coaching. In his free time, Joshua indulges his creative side by writing music and poetry, as well as enjoying classic films. With his blend of practical experience, academic knowledge, and personal dedication to wellness, Joshua is committed to empowering individuals to surpass their fitness goals and live their best lives.
