About Israel Sanchez
Israel A. Sanchez (AKA Coach Izzy) is a professional Strength & Conditioning Coach with over 14 years of experience. Israel's training techniques revolve around the idea that when it comes to conditioning, nothing beats effort, preparation and perseverance. His clients range from competitive athletes working towards a goal in their respective sport, movie and TV celebrities, to the everyday person looking to improve their health and quality of life.
Israel is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) and specializes in Pre/Post Natal Fitness, Olympic Weightlifting and Russian Kettlebells. Israel received his degree in Exercise Science and Sports Studies, with a strong background in sports medicine, from Rutgers University in New Jersey.
In an effort to provide his clients with the best and most thorough service, Israel is constantly expanding his knowledge in the areas of nutrition, sports performance, rehabilitation, and biomechanics. Currently, Israel is pursuing his education in Integrative Neurosomatic Therapy (INT) and seeking the master level in the Resistance Training Specialist (RTS) program. Both INT and RTS are considered two of the most complete, thorough and demanding programs in the industry.
As one of the first Russian Kettlebell instructors coached by Kettlebell Concepts, Israel uses the knowledge gained as a tool for overall conditioning, especially with competitive Olympic weightlifters. Israel has been widely applauded in the industry as one of the few coaches with enough experience and understanding to introduce proper Olympic weightlifting to the general population as part of their conditioning.
As a USA Weightlifting (USAW) active Sports Performance Coach and Senior Coach, he has coached several medal-winning lifters from novices to seasoned lifters. He is one of a handful of coaches in the North West with experience in the local, national, and international levels of competition.
Israel knows that the practical application of his education takes place outside the classroom and his active involvement in athletics is a wealth of contribution to his professional development. He has participated consistently in the week-long Olympic Weightlifting Camps organized by East Coast Gold, undergone the mini-mentorship program led by "Athlete's Performance" and become an active student in the applications of Integrative Neurosomatic Therapy.
Israel is considered a trainers' coach as his services have been sought by many personal trainers. They have met with him privately for instruction on the proper mechanics and applications of Olympic Style Weightlifting and Russian Kettlebells. Israel is also distinguished as an educator as he assists and leads workshops and clinics on the subjects of Olympic Weightlifting and Kettlebell Training.
Israel's work has been published in Exhilarate Magazine, Shape Magazine, and FirstAthlete.com. His very successful Kettlebell class has been mentioned in New York Magazine, Elle.com, Urbanbaby.com, an in several independent fitness sites. He is also a repeat guest in "Health Fitness & Healing" a local TV show in the Northern NJ area.
Israel's excellent program designing skills, no-nonsense approach to fitness, and constant development through education allows his clients achieve levels they thought were out of their reach. His reputation as one of the top and more knowledgeable Strength and Conditioning Coaches in the North-East is hard earned and well deserved. His willingness to go the extra mile, his high professional ethics, and the great deal of care he puts into his clients earned him a spot in the hearts of many grateful New Yorkers.
Israel's love for the Outdoors and Scuba Diving brought him to Bainbridge Island. The open and friendly community, the quaintness of the town, the easy access to outdoor spots, and Puget Sound lured Israel into the Pacific North West and made him turn Bainbridge Island into his new home.
Israel is excited about sharing his experiences with the Bainbridge Island community. He now serves the Islanders with the same great energy and enthusiasm that distinguished him in New York, without compromising the ethics and pursuit of quality education that made his business so successful.
He can be found alongside his business partner and best friend, Coach James Bowman at Next Step Conditioning Systems studio. You can Contact Coach Izzy by using the form below. Israel is looking forward to meeting you and guiding you in your journey to the next level.
