LUCAS Mandic

As alumni of Moorpark High school, I am excited to be back helping the community I grew up in. After high school - Class of 2010, I attended Moorpark College to play football and obtain my Associates Degree while discovering my passion for Kinesiology. I earned a scholarship to continue my football career at Colorado Mesa University, where I completed my Bachelor’s Degree in Kinesiology.
Upon moving back home to California, I spent several years working in a high-‐level sports medicine physical therapy clinic and training facility. I had a great opportunity to learn biomechanics and proper progression/regression of movement patterns (Push, Pull, Hip Hinge, Squat, etc) from some very knowledgeable mentors. After the pandemic when most fitness environments were forced to close, I pivoted directions and started my own private personal training business. I am excited to have joined forces with EA Fitness and be available to help the community that paved the way for me!
My training style can be described as a combination of resistance training and corrective exercise. Pain and/or injury are a result of repetitive movements, whether you are throwing a 100 mph fastball or typing at a desk for 40 hours a week. Your training program must be designed to undo the imbalances from these repetitive movements so that we can feel our best, which allows us to train at our highest potential. Along with proper programming, we must be able to execute the movements correctly to see progress. Everybody can benefit from this style of training since it incorporates mobility, stability and strength. Whether you are a youth athlete developing stability, a senior trying to keep up with the grandkids or anybody else in between looking to build muscle/lose fat… I am ready to help!
