Coach Cait

Hi, I'm Coach Cait! I'm an ISSA-certified Specialist in Strength and Conditioning, a former Division 1 field hockey athlete at the University of Iowa, and a former Division 1 coach at Stanford and Berkeley. These days you'll find me playing and competing in disc golf, doing jiu-jitsu and climbing. I've studied kettlebells, mobility, rotational strength and nutrition, and I'm the 2024 Landmine University Games champion. I've dealt with injuries, setbacks and performance anxiety, and strength training has always been the place I bounce back to. I want to give you that too, girl! Kettlebell Kickstart is your first step. When you're ready for more, my StrongHER online program is right here with you.
