More About Coach Gabriel

I have experience coaching a variety of athletes from the youth level to the elite and professional levels. Currently, I am a Varsity Football Coach at St. Ignatius College Prep in San Francisco. Throughout my career, I played/coached football at UC Davis, coached the New York Mets Spring training in Port St Lucie, Florida, and have worked one on one with top athletes across the country in various sports. Additionally, I coach youth athletes who are playing sports for the first time. Throughout my experiences, I have learned from some of the best coaches/trainers around including: NFL coaches, Olympic Track coaches, and world renowned strength and conditioning coaches. I take all that I have learned and apply it to my athletes.

I competed at the Division 1 level, playing football at UC Davis. At Davis, I played running back earning 2x All Big Sky awards as well as League Newcomer of the year in 2013.

I customize my training programs for each of my athletes given their age, level, skill set and goals. First, I like to get to know my athletes and communicate what it is they want to improve on, what their strengths and weakness are. Then we put together a training plan together. I specialize in running back specific, wide receiver/ Defensive back drills, footwork and body control, speed/agility, strength/conditioning and core. I also strongly believe it is important to coach physical and mental toughness. Each client session is different and varies given their preferences. Expect to be challenged.

Great coach

Coach Gabriel has been awesome in teaching football fundamentals to the kids. They are 9 years old and coach has had the ability to keep them engaged, balancing between conditioning exercises and fun plays focused on the technical aspects of each position.

Coach Manzanares did a great job introducing next level concepts and technique training for our 12 year old son. Highly recommend.

Coach Gabe is a fantastic coach! His knowledge and expertise from general athletic training to sport specific training is unparalleled. He has an innate ability to communicate with athletes at all levels and motivate them to be their best.
