I've been coaching since 2009. I hold certifications through ISSA as both a Personal Trainer and in Nutrition, and I'm a J3 University Level 1 certified coach. I earned my WNBF Pro card competing in natural bodybuilding and have spent years on both sides of the stage—as a competitor and as the coach behind the scenes.
I built RTN Coaching on one principle: training should be intentional. Every set, every rep, every meal should have a purpose. I don't do cookie-cutter programs. Every client gets a plan built from scratch based on their goals, their schedule, and how their body responds.
In-person clients train with me at Iron Lair in Apex, NC—one of the best-equipped training facilities in the Triangle. Online clients train from their own gym with the same level of attention through weekly check-ins, video form reviews, and ongoing programming adjustments.
"At 50 years old, I was not looking for random workouts or trendy programming. Andrew's programming reflects a deep understanding of load progression, movement mechanics, and recovery principles. After almost a year, I'm stronger, more technically sound, and more confident than I've ever been."
"Even though I was into lifting, I spun my wheels for years making progress here, losing it there. With Andrew, I've been able to make steady progress month after month. Nutrition and workouts are straightforward and individually tailored. Even with coaching being online, he's improved my form through video check-ins."
"I've worked with other coaches in the past but none have provided the level of responsiveness and attention to detail that Andrew has. He provides a level of insight to his clients' needs that is unmatched in my experience. I can't recommend him enough."
"I lost body fat percentage while gaining muscle and looked incredible for my wedding in just 3-4 months. He tailors plans very specifically depending on your goals and lifestyle. His communication is timely and he is extremely thorough in his feedback."
"Being coached by Andrew was a joy from beginning to end. He is a phenomenal listener. One of the benefits I got was second place in the OCB Queen City Showdown classic physique division. Another benefit was having the best A1c of my life as a type one diabetic."
"I've been working with Andrew for over 18 months and have had a great experience. After our initial consultation, I could immediately tell that Andrew listened to me and was able to create a targeted program that worked for me. You will not find anyone better."
