Three steps. Built for biotech-corridor schedules where the only reliable training windows are pre-work or post-work.
No instant-book funnel, no upsell sequence. Christian only takes on clients he can deliver real results for.
The food problem in Sorrento Valley is brutal — the entire neighborhood is dominated by office-park lunch options, food trucks, and a handful of chains. Mira Mesa Boulevard's Filipino corridor is 8 minutes east — Christian's plan teaches you to balance biotech-corridor lunches with Filipino home-cooking. Seafood City and a cluster of Filipino bakeries and restaurants along Mira Mesa Boulevard make it easy to stock a week's worth of real groceries on a single Sunday run.
Christian's nutrition coaching for Sorrento Valley clients usually starts the same way: replace the rotation of food-truck lunches and conference catering with a meal-prep plan built around adobo, sinigang, and rice you cooked Sunday night. Once that's in place, the body recomp math actually works.
The biotech-corridor lifestyle is the kind of thing most "personal trainers" don't account for at all. Christian builds the plan around the constraint instead of pretending it doesn't exist.
"Biotech engineer, lab schedule from hell. I never thought I'd train consistently. 6 months in, I'm down 17 lbs and pulling 405 off the floor."
