Tony Sandoval

Over 15 years ago, I started my career as a Division 1 collegiate strength and conditioning coach. In 2016 I had the opportunity to rehab a severely injured rider. Working side by side with her, she returned to competition months before her doctors expected. It was that experience that gave me new passion and inspiration to focus on solely training equestrian athletes.

Coach Tony’s ability to merge what we do in the gym with what I need to do to be a top equestrian competitor is unmatched.

Cosby Green

Tony has taught me about nutrition, sleep, mental and physical wellness - everything I need as a high-performance athlete.

Heather Jane Morris

Coach Sando is the best! I’ve been working with him for a year now and I can’t even begin to tell you how much my riding has improved!

Macy Clark

The improvements in my riding have been undeniable. The most positive change I’ve felt in the last year is the strength to effectively use the muscles I have been able to isolate.

Remy Nash

I look back on the past year of strength training with Coach Sandoval and I can now say I am a great rider, which is because I am a strong rider.

FAQ

CST 4P-ONLINE COACHING PROCESS

WHY SHOULD I USE AN ONLINE TRAINING PROGRAM INSTEAD OF AN IN PERSON PERSONAL TRAINER?

Expertise: Online training allows you the opportunity to train with top fitness and performance professionals from all over the world, not just those who are close to you. I have many years of experience in working with elite athletes, so you can rest assured that you’ll be receiving expert advice.

Flexible training schedule: Your training programs are designed to fit into a busy schedule. This eliminates the need to coordinate with a trainer. With online training, you’ll be able to complete your sessions whenever and wherever you choose. If you are uncomfortable training in a gym environment, you can also have a program designed for you to work from home or farm.

Value for money: My online training is more affordable than in-person training. The standard for in-person training is anywhere between $60-$100+ per hour, and the average training package is two times a week. Online training gives you a better value for your money.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?

Every individual is different when it comes to the results they see from performance training. Usually, my athletes start feeling better after 2 weeks of training. They report sleeping better, having more energy to ride and overall better mood.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE 12 WEEKS?

This all depends on the individual. Training is not a 12 or 24-week transformation plan. Training for performance should be done as long as you are wanting to compete at a high level. Once your initial 12 weeks of training with me have been complete, we can discuss the plan moving forward in your competition year.

IF I’M TRAINING FROM HOME OR AT MY FARM, WHAT TYPE OF EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

Depending on your initial assessment, your training program may only need heavy resistance bands or kettlebells. I can give you links to purchase what you need. All programs done from home or farm will only require minimal equipment that is easy to set up and store.

IS COACH SANDO TRAINING RIGHT FOR YOU?

If you need a training program to help your riding performance or to address prior injuries caused by riding.

If you struggle to be consistent with a training and nutrition plan due to your schedule at the farm.

If you are not finding the result you want just by being “in shape”.

This type of training is NOT for everyone. You will need to work hard, be consistent, and be coachable.

PLAN

Set up a **Performance Planning Session** where we can discuss what your goals are and how CST can help you reach them.
