    Credentials

    • Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science, University of Southern Maine

    Drew grew up on the mean streets of Exeter, NH. He is a graduate of the University of Southern Maine, completing his degree in Exercise Science. During his internship at UNH Strength and Conditioning he worked with an assortment of teams requiring varying athletic needs. A lifelong curiosity with the complexity of the human body paired with this exposure to many different approaches to training helped to spark an interest in the whole of physical fitness. After completing his internship, Drew found his way into the physical therapy world at Proex PT in 2012. Proex would eventually become Professional PT and over the span of 10 years, he was able to work with many excellent physical therapists. Learning the “whys” of exercise when it comes to keeping the body moving brought a focus on functional strength training. Leaving there armed Drew with the idea that a well-designed mix of strength and balance training can allow an active lifestyle for any age. Drew is excited to work with all the FT clients and continue to learn new techniques to accomplish their specific goals.
