“Working with Vern has helped me overcome so many obstacles. Since Vern has been my coach, I have been happier, stronger, but most of all more confident in myself and my skills.

It’s clear to see just how much Coach Vern values his relationships with his athletes. He strives to understand his athletes as humans, not just athletes, he is able to connect with and create genuine relationships with each athlete. His coaching has sparked a drive in me to become the best I can be in not only Olympic weightlifting but life.

Coach Vern is just the type of person you need in your circle to help push you to the next level. No matter your sport or your goals, Vern will 100% be there to support you and push you to be even better than before.”
