What Sets Us Apart
People, principles, and quality sit at the core of SUMMIT SYSTEMS. This philosophy guides how we coach, communicate, and support our athletes. We believe in doing the work properly, building real relationships, and creating an environment where athletes can develop with confidence and direction.
athlete First, Always
Coaching starts with understanding the person behind the lift. Training is guided by sound principles and adapted through ongoing feedback—accounting for goals, history, stress, and real-world demands so progress remains effective as conditions change.
education Before Execution
Athletes are taught to understand the HOW and WHY behind their training. This builds better decision-making, effective self-regulation, and confidence under load—especially when pressure is high and conditions aren’t perfect.
Clear Communication & high standards
Coaching works best when expectations are clear and dialogue is open. Consistent communication ensures athletes stay aligned, supported, and accountable as training evolves across different phases and demands.
built for the long climb
Summit Systems coaches with the full arc of an athlete’s career in mind. Decisions are made not just for the next block or competition, but for where the athlete needs to be months and years down the line - allowing progress to continue through changing goals, setbacks, and seasons of life.

“Before Tony, I knew I had potential with my strength, but I didn’t know how to unlock it.
Working with Tony changed that.
He took my passion for powerlifting and turned it into real progress. His coaching is personal, collaborative, and built around you. He doesn’t just program lifts; he checks in on your life, your mindset, and everything that affects performance. That holistic approach is what sets him apart and makes him invaluable to any striving powerlifter.
Tony pushes you to be better while making sure you enjoy the process. He builds confidence, holds you accountable, and makes sure you’re growing both inside and outside the gym.
He’s the hardest worker in the room — constantly learning, improving, and leading by example. I wouldn’t be where I am today without him.” -

“When I started with Tony I was a very anxious athlete. Always overthinking about every lift and training session. Through Tony’s continued guidance, I have become a more confident athlete; trusting in myself and the process.
I chose to start with Tony because of his compassion and willingness to listen to my concerns. He has continuously shown this empathy throughout my whole coaching experience; always staying open minded and taking the time to gain a deeper understanding of myself as an athlete, my needs and concerns. Tony’s coaching style is a collaborative approach; a mentor who checks in with you consistently, wants to ensure you’re enjoying yourself and has good morals.
Tony is always continuously upskilling and striving to improve himself & his coaching. This is a coach that I wholeheartedly trust. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to grow both physically and mentally, and have fun!!”

“Tony is a great coach, mentor, and friend that anyone could ask for. Prior to starting with Tony, I had some basic knowledge of strength training but was constantly hitting plateaus and dealing with injuries.
After working with Tony, he helped me address multiple lifting issues and refine my cues, kept me accountable with my training, and provided constructive feedback that allowed me to lift stronger while staying pain-free.
I highly recommend him to lifters of any level. He’s great at making you feel empowered the moment you step foot in the gym, while also meticulously fine-tuning technique for intermediate and advanced lifters.”

“I've worked with Tony for two years and have seen tremendous growth in both physical and mental strength in our time together.
He's flexible with his programming and works collaboratively with his lifters, with a gift for explaining the "why" behind everything. He's also got a unique understanding amongst powerlifting coaches of the human body, which I believe is a key reason why I have been injury-free our entire time together.
Most importantly, he connects with you as a person. That connection is a key ingredient in what makes Tony such a good coach. It builds trust, confidence and helps navigate challenges such as a tough moment in a meet or general life stress.
Whether you're an elite level lifter wanting to make a run at world's or brand new to strength training and want a knowledgable coach to guide you, I highly recommend joining the Summit Systems team.”

“Tony is an absolute delight to work with. Before starting with him, I was inconsistent with my training. I knew I had a passion for strength training but didn’t know where to start. I always knew I was strong, but I didn’t believe I could get any stronger.
Tony has been a huge pillar in my powerlifting journey. He has helped me grow my confidence within the sport and introduced me to an incredible community, which plays such an important role not only in the sport but also in my life.
What I value most is the accountability he provides. Being a coach myself, I often found it hard to show up at 100% for my own training. Since working with Tony, my perspective on training has completely shifted. I now show up with purpose, clarity, and belief in the process. I’m incredibly grateful to have him as my coach.”
