Background:
Originally from southern California, Steve comes from a strong background in engineering and technical management, working in the semiconductor industry. As an avid skier and cyclist, he made a career change 11 years ago. After volunteering as an intern working with children with Spina Bifida and Cerebral Palsy, and personally experiencing his own rehabilitation from a shattered patella, Steve combined his passion for corrective exercise with strong analytical skills in the pursuit to apply science to fitness.
Steve believes that all forms of movement should be corrective. From his own rehab experience, he learned first hand that lasting gains in fitness are achieved only through a hierarchy of exercise programming: First, take care of joint health; then address your range of motion; and, lastly, consider the elements of strength, power and endurance.
