More About Coach Eric
Hi I'm Eric. I'm certified by the top two accredited credentials in the fitness industry. They are the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). I have been mentored by the Head Physio-Therapist for the 2004, 2008, and 2012 USA Olympic Sailing Team. I've worked as the strength and conditioning coach for three silver medal winners at Beijing, and helped many New Yorkers reach their unique fitness goal(s).
However, it wasn’t always burpees and kettle swings for me, as a child I suffered from Asthma. By age 8 due to declining activity levels and bad nutrition I was overweight and eventually became OBESE! I’ve struggled with my insecurity about my weight for the better part of my life as well I have experienced ridicule from my peers; I know the disenfranchising feeling of not being able to keep up with my peers due to shortness of breath. But I also realize the incredible feeling of overcoming the obstacle of obesity; how empowered one feels as they shed undesired weight, or as one progresses from running out of breath, to doing one lap around the track and then running 5k’s with ease!

Client Reviews
Roberto (CoachUp client)
Coach Eric is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of fitness training. He conducts his 1-on-1 sessions completely focused, explains exercises very clearly and in detail, monitors me while I do the exercise, corrects my form to make sure that the right muscles are working, and that I won’t get injured. He challenges me enough to make me feel sore after the session (60min, x2/week), but never to the level where I feel overworked. I’m quite athletic but haven’t exercised at all for 3 months, and coach Eric is giving me extra motivation to keep working out, because I know he has a plan for me. He is in total control of the training program (mine incorporates weights and aerobic exercises), and I trust him completely. Last but not least, he’s always on time!
Daniel (CoachUp client)
Eric was fantastic. He is intelligent and meticulous and really understands the way the human body knows in order to optimize workouts. Eric is particular about the goals we set and I am confident I can reach those goals with his help
Apoorva (Testimonial)
I was a novice to fitness when I met Eric. He transformed my entire approach to health and fitness--he set reasonable goals for me and then kept moving the goalpost as I met them, pushed me just a little bit harder than I ever thought I could go, and made working out incredibly enjoyable. I couldn't recommend him highly enough.
Darnelle G. (Testimonial)
In three months I lost 3 dress sizes thanks to Eric. Best New Year’s EVER!
Ruth A. (Testimonial)
In addition to providing physical training, Eric’s calm and gentle demeanor together with his positive attitude, were refreshing and welcome. I would highly recommend Eric to anyone requiring a personal trainer who is professional, friendly and courteous.
Kremena S. (Testimonial)
I thought I would always hate to work out, just have to force myself. Eric actually made me enjoy it. What else could I ask for?
Ayesha K. - Mom (Testimonial)
I really love Eric’s approach to fitness. He pushes me to go beyond my limits and now I’m seeing the results of all of our hard work; and I love it!
