Strength Training with Joe Bando

 Science-Based. Experience-Driven. Purpose-Filled.


I’ve been practicing and coaching slow-motion, high-intensity strength training for over 12 years. It changed my body, it changed my mind, and in a very real way—it changed my life.


Today, I’m the Certification Education Supervisor for the South Orange County and San Diego region of The Perfect Workout. 

That means I don’t just train clients—I train the trainers. I guide new hires, lead ongoing education for seasoned instructors, and speak regularly to our regional teams about the science, structure, and purpose behind this powerful method.


But I didn’t come into this work from a perfect background or polished résumé. I came into it from pain—chronic injuries, inflammation, and years of physical disconnection that took a toll on my health and self-esteem. 

Like many people, I spent years chasing results in the gym through the wrong strategies: overtraining, inconsistent plans, ego-driven workouts that led to breakdowns instead of breakthroughs.


Then I found Super Slow. It was a complete reset.

This method—backed by decades of research and popularized by pioneers like Ken Hutchins and Dr. Doug McGuff—offers a way to build maximum strength in just 20 minutes, twice a week. It’s a full-body, high-intensity workout done under controlled conditions with expert instruction.


No wasted time. No distractions. No guesswork.

It’s grounded in physiology, safe for any age, and deeply effective. But more than that, it’s mindful. It asks you to be fully present. It demands that you slow down, breathe, and reconnect with your body in a way most people never do.


That’s what hooked me—and that’s why I’ve stayed.


What I Offer

 

  • One-on-one, customized Super Slow strength training at The Perfect Workout in Laguna Niguel
     
  • Nervous system-aware coaching rooted in breath, posture, and presence
     
  • Education and support for anyone interested in getting stronger without breaking down
     
  • A safe, judgment-free training experience grounded in mutual respect and real results
     
  • A complete, efficient workout in just 20 minutes—perfect for busy professionals, parents, and anyone tired of wasting time in the gym
     

My Approach

 

I work with people from all walks of life—retirees, athletes, entrepreneurs, busy parents—each with their own goals, injuries, fears, and stories. Whether you're brand new to strength training or looking to go deeper in your existing routine, my goal is to meet you where you're at and help you build something that lasts.

This isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about training smarter.
It’s about unlocking strength you didn’t think was still in you—and showing up for yourself, one controlled rep at a time.

Real Results from Real People

 

“I’ve never enjoyed resistance training but I recently started working out with Joe Bando at TPW in Laguna Niguel. His coaching method has turned my workouts into something akin to a 'zen' practice. Slow & intentional focused movements—20 minutes later, I’m thoroughly smoked! Joe is a master of the technique and passionate about it. I’m feeling the results and can’t believe I actually look forward to my workouts. That’s a 180° for me. Thanks, Joe!”
— Landi M.
 
“I am on week four of My Perfect Workout! The time-under-tension philosophy is a proven winner. I strayed from it for 40 years but I am happy to be back. Joe Bando is a tremendous trainer—tough, inspiring, encouraging... and funny!”
— Tom D.
 
“The Perfect Workout is exactly the program I have been searching for. Traditional exercise classes, Pilates, yoga, hours at the gym, and lack of results left me disappointed. I don’t want to lose muscle as I age! The science behind the program makes perfect sense. I now look forward to my workout. Joe Bando keeps me on track with a customized routine specific to my body. Thank you, Joe!”
— Christina D.
