So, Why ORACLE?

The name "Oracle" was created when Sam, the owner, was working with one of his clients. The client, Chris, was fond of the term and began using it as a nickname for Sam due to his ability to rely on him to explain complex science, training, and nutritional concepts. This is when Oracle Athletic Science and Oracle Training & Nutrition were conceived. 

Sam has obtained numerous certifications throughout his career (ACE, ISSA, NCCPT & Precision Nutrition) and strives to further develop his intellect in all things pertaining to training, nutrition and athletic science. Sam’s philosophy is rooted in maximizing lean muscle tissue by pairing strategic nutrition with select strength and muscle-building movements in order to improve body composition and metabolic rate in his clients. 

In addition to coaching others since 2008, Sam has been active in the industry since 2009, both competing as an athlete and fitness modeling from 2012-2014). Sam participates in the NPC, where he is a five time nationally qualified athlete, and has placed in the top 2 in the North Carolina and South Carolina contests for Men’s physique competitors. During his time as a competitor Sam has trained under some of the most renowned coaches in the industry, absorbing and distilling as much knowledge as he could to best apply their individual practices to a vast array of client circumstances. 

Sam graduated with his B.S. from Elon University where he was the student coordinator of personal training & fitness for Elon University Campus Recreation. In 2014, Sam furthered his education by obtaining his Master's degree from North Carolina State University.
