In the 1st 3 months I've lost nearly 10 pounds, shaved over 100 seconds off my 5k, set multiple PRs on various shorter distances, and increased my 1rm squat. Justin is a fantastic coach, he responds quickly, always within 24 hours, often sooner. Is extremely knowledgeable and did a great job meeting me where I'm at. Id strongly recommend him for anyone with strength or running goals.

Awesome experience working with Assemble Performance to complete my first ever Half Marathon! Justin was incredibly consistent on checking in to see how I was feeling physically and mentally to give me the best training program possible. He catered my training to exactly what I needed each week for the 20 weeks leading up to my half marathon. Everything was catered specifically to me, included the workouts, recovery sessions, helpful stretching routines, and tidbits of encouragement for mental stamina as well! Completed the half marathon 5 minutes faster than my goal time! Couldn’t have stayed so consistent and precise in training without Justin’s coaching!

I had been going to the gym for about 1.5 years and had just recovered from a back injury when I signed on with Justin. With Justin's guidance, I was able to get stronger, put on muscle, and get PRs in my races. Justin brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in both running and weight training that was critical to meeting my goals as a hybrid athlete. He's also very skilled at tailoring your workouts to your specific fitness journey, including balancing the scheduling demands of life. If you're serious about hitting your goals, do yourself a favor and look to Justin and Assemble Performance to be your guide. You'll be glad you did!

Thanks to Justin and Assemble Performance. I have tried other weightlifting and running programs in the past, and I have even worked with a couple of trainers here and there too, but I have never had programming and guidance that has been so aligned with achieving my goals. I can confidently say that that alignment has made the journey and the results so much more worthwhile, fulfilling, impactful, and fun. I am proud that I completed my first marathon, exceeding the goals that I initially set for myself. I learned the importance of developing both my strength and my endurance and I also learned how crucial taking in the right amount of nutrients is before, during, and after workouts and competitions to ensure that I am giving my body what it needs to do its best. I am glad that I will be able to take these technical lessons with me for any training and events I want to pursue in the future. On a more personal level, I got reminded of just how stubborn I can be. I was vaguely aware of the importance of strength training and gently increasing running volumes/ mileage to avoid injury, but I failed to prioritize those principles in my training, and I wasn’t willing to change my habits until I hurt my knee. Only then did it sink into me that my old methods weren’t going to work for new challenges. I had to keep an open mind and take a risk on something new, otherwise I would fail to grow in the process. I truthfully don't regret being stubborn, but I certainly need to be open to new ideas and trying new approaches. Hybrid training has struck an excellent balance for me between increasing my endurance and increasing my strength, and having them both contribute to my overall fitness. Other programs could have led me to assume that I could focus on and advance either strength or endurance, but increasing my strength while also training for and completing a marathon has shown me that in my case I can kind of have my cake and eat it too. The balance between strength and endurance made this training stand out to me, and that is also why I like it. And ultimately, I enjoy both running and lifting, so this programming was very fun for me and kept things very fresh.

I wanted to improve my overall athleticism. Justin at Assemble Performance was extremely knowledgeable in all areas of exercise, nutrition, and mentality and he was able to help me achieve my goals and increase my strength and power.

I loved the one on one, and the experience Justin has. You can tell that he knows what he is talking about and he was able to help find compromises when outdoor workouts weren’t possible. I increased all of my lifts while also maintaining my endurance and running capabilities!

I’m proud that I benched 225x5 within 6 weeks of starting, and kept my speed up while putting on muscle. Justin took all my inputs and implemented them according to the needs he felt best first. Justin didn't conform to one style of training such as hybrid training is. I kept putting on muscle and getting stronger at the same time keeping my running and speed progressing.

Absolutely loved working with Justin! He really took the time to know me and my goals. I went from struggling to get a mile run in to running 4.13 miles and feeling great! Endurance and recovery time was awesome. My training program really focused on ME. Nothing cookie cutter about it.

My man Justin is very knowledgeable and helpful. I started with him a few months ago in the beginning of December and i have added lean muscle mass and dropped the overall body fat percentage. Most excited for the mental victories he has helped me achieve. Definitely recommend Justin as a online coach, he will give you all the tools and mental help necessary to get you going in the right direction.
