About Dave
Helping people move better, recover better, and age with strength since 2002.
Dave has been helping people move better, feel better, and stay strong since 2002. Over the years, he has worked with hundreds of people through fitness coaching, functional health, and a practical approach to long-term wellness that fits real life.
He was one of the first people in the United States to earn RKC kettlebell certification in 2002 and later became a Master RKC. He also founded IronBody Fitness in 2007, where he helped clients build strength, improve mobility, and take better care of their health.
What makes Dave different is the range of experience he brings to the table. His background includes kettlebell training, movement coaching, martial arts, physical therapy coursework, and functional health education, which gives him a broader view of how the body moves, heals, and performs over time.
Today, Dave brings that experience into Intentional Health By Design with a simple goal: helping people take a more intentional approach to feeling well, aging well, and staying active. He believes health is not about chasing extremes — it is about building strength, improving recovery, and creating habits you can sustain.
This martial arts background informs everything Dave does — from how he teaches movement to how he understands the body under stress and in recovery.
Active Aging Active Aging & Strength After 40
At 67, Dave still trains regularly with kettlebells, clubbells, and bodyweight exercises to maintain strength, mobility, and muscle mass. He believes the best way to teach active aging is to live it.
He is also the author of Spartan Warrior Workout and The Ultimate Kettlebell Workbook and has spoken at professional fitness events and appeared in local media. But more than anything, he is passionate about helping people feel better in their bodies and keep doing the things they love.
