MEET NATHAN

PERSONAL TRAINER & OWNER - PICKS PT - SINCE 2014

With over 12 years in the health and fitness industry, Nathan built Picks PT on one principle: training should get results without breaking you down. He works with everyone from first-time gym goers to competitive athletes - and the approach is always the same.

Structure first. Technique always. Progression over ego.

STRUCTURED PROGRAMMING

Every session has a purpose and feeds the next

TECHNIQUE FIRST

Proper form before loading - every single rep

PROGRESSIVE OVERLOAD

Systematic strength development, no plateaus

LONG-TERM CONSISTENCY

Training habits that outlast any program

THE PROBLEM

TIRED OF TRAINING HARD

AND GOING NOWHERE?

Most people hit a wall because their program isn't built for them. Generic apps, crowded gyms, and cookie-cutter routines don't cut it when you want real athletic performance.

  • Random workouts with no progressive structure

  • Picking up preventable injuries from poor technique

  • Zero accountability between sessions

  • No one adjusting the plan when life gets in the way

THE SOLUTION

  • Structured programming built around your sport and goals

  • Technique-first coaching to protect you from injury

  • Direct access to Nathan between sessions

  • Programs that adapt as you progress

Bodyweight Fitness

Achieve strength and flexibility using your own body as resistance.

Strength Training

Build muscle and enhance endurance with tailored weightlifting routines.

Cardio Workouts

Boost your cardiovascular health with high-intensity interval training (HIIT).

Flexibility & Mobility

Improve joint health and range of motion through stretching and mobility

Rachel D

Online Training Client

I feel more confident in myself and have more energy. I would never have thought that I would be able to run and do agility and endurance drills, do sit-ups and push-ups. I am a happier person - training really lifts your mood.
