Derek Schimmoeller

I'm Derek, and I've spent the last 8 years helping people of every fitness level get stronger and move better. I don't lock myself into one specialty because I love the whole picture, but if you put me in my happy place, it's coaching athletes through sport-specific training and watching them carry that work straight into their game.

What I care about most is doing things the right way. I'm not a perfectionist, but I put proper technique and injury prevention above everything else, because that is what keeps you progressing for the long haul. Some of my favorite clients are the ones who are brand new to following a program. There is nothing like teaching someone how to move well and watching them surprise themselves week after week.

Outside the gym, I'm a husband and a dad to two boys, with a third on the way. I'm a die-hard Detroit Tigers and Lions fan, and you'll usually find me out on the golf course with friends and family whenever I get the chance.
