Hi, I’m Ben Motl, the coach behind Motl Muscle.
I’ve been helping people get stronger, healthier, and more confident since 2012. With a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science and a master’s degree in Exercise Physiology, I bring both education and real-world experience to every program I create. Over the last decade, I’ve worked as a personal trainer, strength & conditioning coach, and performance specialist, helping clients from all walks of life move better and feel stronger.
Strength isn’t just my job, it’s my passion. I’ve competed in powerlifting and strongman at a high level, including:
A 1,747 lb powerlifting total in the 220 lb weight class
Competing internationally, traveling as far as Scotland for world competition
Competing at USS Strongman Nationals twice and earning a spot in the professional strongman league.
Motl Muscle isn’t about turning you into a professional athlete (unless that’s your goal). My mission is to help everyday people build strength they can use, whether that’s picking up your kids without pain, getting through your workday with more energy, or finally feeling confident in your own skin.
When you work with me, you get programming that’s evidence-based and results-driven, plus the guidance of someone who truly understands what it takes to make progress in the real world.
Let’s build your strength, inside and out.
