Porrada Barbell

2 years ago I made the decision to pull myself out of whatever FUNK I was in and set a goal to do a bodybuilding competition. I was introduced to Drew through a mutual friend and we set out on my little journey to take back some control in my life. While we had zero expectations of me actually placing (literally just happy to be there 😂), I took the overall wellness title, and a couple more shows later Drew’s coaching got me into the IFBB PRO PEAGUE 😱 …all as a lifetime natural athlete!! For whatever your goals are, Drew will customize the exact program YOU need to succeed. If you’re ready to put in the work, this is the guy who will give you experienced guidance and not some trendy TikTok workout. Do yourself a favor and hit him up!

Drew was recommended to us for my kids strength and conditioning coach. Great environment. He introduced my kids to weightlifting safely. Was so so very PLEASES and IMPRESSED with his knowledge base on the specific sports that we are involved in, especially our nutrition questions. Which is always a concern as the young athletes are still growing. He has even recognized an injury that my son had that I didn’t even realize. He worked on strengthening it to prevent further injury from now on! He is seriously top notch and pays attention to detail! Ive seen so much growth and confidence in my kids. He adapts your training to what is needed whether a young athlete or an adult looking for weight management (like me). He’s made a plan for me also to help me in my running and dancing. Looking forward to our continued journey. So blessed to be apart of Porrada Barbell.

Simply put, Coach Andrew is one of the best in the game of Coaching/Personal Training/ Bodybuilding Contest Prep. His approach to things are not cookie cutter and he truly believes every athlete or lifestyle client he takes on, deserves his attention to detail and a program that fits the individual. Thank you Coach for everything, you have a client for life. P.S. I’m a coach/sport nutritionist that reached out to Coach Andrew for his guidance. Coaches need Coaches! Stay Humble!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t say enough good things about Porrada Barbell in Virginia Beach! Their adult program is top-notch, offering a well-rounded strength and conditioning experience for people of all levels. The coaches are knowledgeable, motivating, and truly care about helping you reach your fitness goals. What really sets Porrada Barbell apart, though, is their amazing kids’ strength and training program. It’s clear that they prioritize proper technique and safety, while still making the workouts fun and engaging for the kids. My child has gained so much confidence, strength, and discipline since joining! Whether you’re an experienced athlete or just starting out, Porrada Barbell has something for everyone. Highly recommend!

I am an all natural bodybuilding athlete and have been consistently for the past 10 years and been working out in general for over 20 years. I’ve worked with several trainers/coaches in my day but no one compares to Andrews coaching ability and style. I’ve been working with Andrew for about 5 months now and this is THE best program I’ve ever been on. It was important to me to find a knowledgeable coach who isn’t ego driven, but simply loves what he does and desires to help people achieve their goals. Andrew has exceeded all of my expectations and the results show. I call him the G.O.A.T. because he is literally that!! Don’t wait to sign up with him. Just do it and I promise you that he will change your life!!
