About BPS Performance
I am a trainer based in Boca Raton, Florida with experience training a wide range of clientele: from general population, to professional & youth athletes, to military personnel.
-
Each training program is tailored to the individual based on their goals & needs
-
My philosophy with training is to train smarter, not harder and to always look at the big picture through a holistic lens
-
Whether you live in South Florida or anywhere else in the world we have remote training options and high quality training that is adaptable to any situation
WHY BPS PERFORMANCE?
PLAN
We'll meet to discuss your health and performance goals and through our comprehensive assessment, create the most effective program to achieve those goals. My job is to lay out the road map (program) to reach each destination (goal). All you need is a good attitude and a willingness to work hard.
REMOTE TRAINING
Remote training through FaceTime or Skype is a unique service we offer. No matter where you are in the world, we never have to miss a training session. We've had great success with clients, from traveling business executives, to professional athletes. One of the most important ingredients to success is consistency.
NUTRITION
The food we eat plays an enormous role in how our bodies respond to activities and ultimately adapt to stressors. Whether your goals are related to improving health or performance, understanding this key relationship will be invaluable. We'll first monitor how/why you eat the way you do and then focus on small changes.
EDUCATION
Most importantly, we will educate you on everything we do. This is to ensure that you understand the plan and how it will help you achieve your goals. My ultimate goal is to leave you empowered and enlightened so that you're fully confident in your health and your ability to move well.

What People Are Saying
Hakon N.
"I have been pain free for 6 years thanks to Ben and I have been able to stay consistent with my training as I play professionally overseas. He does a great job at seeing the small details that somebody else might miss. He understands my schedule and easily adapts to my needs as a hockey player on a daily basis."

HOW ARE YOU DIFFERENT FROM A REGULAR GYM TRAINER?I take a holistic approach to training the human body & mind. We will improve the functional capabilities of the human body - moving in multiple planes of motion, at different speeds, with various methods. These methods blend traditional strength training with functional training & provide a multitude of stimuli to constantly challenge the body, avoiding stagnant training & plateaus. Ultimately, each program is individualized to provide the client not only what they want but, also what they need.
-
WHAT TYPES OF HOME FITNESS EQUIPMENT DO YOU RECOMMEND?Honestly, you do not need a ton of equipment. Some of the basics such as dumbbells, bench, stability ball, and resistance bands go a long way. Adjustable dumbbells (Bowflex, Power Block) are a great option to save space while still having a variety of weights.
-
DO YOU CHARGE EXTRA FOR NUTRITIONAL GUIDANCE AND A DIET PLAN?No, I do not. However, I am not a licensed nutritionist nor do I try to be. I know my scope of practice and stay in my lane. What I can provide is guidance and advice on nutrition while helping to cultivate healthier eating habits. We will work to create more awareness around eating and the emotional connections we may have with it.
-
WHO/WHAT HAS INFLUENCED YOU AND YOUR TRAINING STYLE?I've had the privilege of working with great people and mentors. I have always sought out the best coaches and trainers to learn their methods and thought processes. This includes but not limited to - Charles Poliquin, Al Vermeil, Dr. Stuart McGill, Eric Cressey, Mark Verstegen, Brett Bartholomew, David Alexander, Paul Fabritz, and Nick Winkelman.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I TRAIN?Short answer: it depends. It depends on a variety of factors including availability to train, goals, training level/experience, and outside activities. For athletes this is very important to manage correctly because someone can really cause an athlete an injury with poor planning. For general population, it still requires smart planning but there is more flexibility. Feel free to contact for more information.
