Get in shape without quitting your job

Online and in-person coaching for busy people with real lives — jobs, families, actual schedules. I work a 9-to-5 too, so this is built to fit around it: efficient sessions, no fantasy meal prep, no living in the gym. You don't get an assigned coach juggling a hundred clients. You get me. Every week.

Tired of starting over?

01

Losing Steam After 2–3 Weeks

You start strong, then life gets in the way and everything falls apart.

02

Not Knowing What Works

Too much conflicting info online. Nothing built specifically for you.

03

Random Workouts, No Results

Grinding in the gym with nothing to show for it. Frustrating and exhausting.

04

Stuck In The Same Body

You know you're capable of more. You just don't have the right system.

"Most people don't fail because they're lazy. They fail because nobody built them a real plan."

— Coach AJ, Rent Free Athletics
The Method

The Rent Free Method

Six things every client gets — the system that actually keeps you progressing.

Custom Training Plan

Built around your schedule, your gym, your body. Not a template — a plan engineered for you specifically.

Nutrition Guidance

Flexible dieting that fits your actual life. No food bans, no extreme cuts. Sustainable habits that create real change.

Weekly Accountability

Check-ins every week. Progress tracking. Adjustments in real time. You're never left guessing what to do next.

Direct Access To Me

Text me any time. Questions, adjustments, bad days — I'm in your corner all week, not just during sessions.

We Train Together

I'm not standing there counting reps. I'm in it with you. That energy is different — you'll feel it from day one.

Flexible Lifestyle Approach

Built for real people with real lives. Travel, work stress, family — the plan adapts. No all-or-nothing mentality.

Proof

Real transformations

Real people. Real results. Not stock photos — these are actual clients and Coach AJ himself.

  • Nutrition is the multiplier + bonus macro & split guide

5 rules. Zero fluff.

Getting stronger★★★★★

"I've been working with Austin for a few months now and I already feel stronger. He's really helping me understand the best way to exercise and build muscle. He's been knowledgeable and patient. I look forward to making more progress!"

-70+ lbs★★★★★

"Working with Austin has been one of the best decisions I've made. He completely changed my health for the better and taught me how to build a sustainable, healthy lifestyle instead of relying on quick fixes I fell victim to for years. Over the past year, I've lost more than 70 lbs and feel better than I ever have both physically and mentally. If you're ready to put in the work and truly change your life, Austin will give you the knowledge, guidance, and support to get there."

Coach AJ and his daughter
About

Why I coach

I'm Austin — Coach AJ. I built Rent Free Athletics after years of figuring out the hard way that real change doesn't come from extremes. It comes from a real plan, real accountability, and someone in your corner who actually shows up.

I work a 9-to-5, I'm raising my daughter, and I train clients in the evenings and on weekends — so I get it. Your plan has to fit your life, not the other way around. That's the whole point.

Real PlansEngineered for your body and schedule.
Real AccountabilityWeekly check-ins. Never guessing.
Real ResultsSustainable, not crash-and-burn.
