Science-Based. Experience-Driven. Purpose-Filled.
I have been practicing and coaching slow motion high intensity Strength Therapy for over 13 years.
It changed my body, it changed my mind, and in a very real way it changed my life.
Today I am preparing to open a Strength Therapy Sanctuary in South Orange County called Sacred Strength, which I will run with my wife
Dr. Amanda Bando.
Our vision is to create a space where people can build real strength safely and efficiently while reconnecting to their bodies on a deeper level.
That means I do not just put people through workouts. I guide them through a proven science backed method that builds real strength with purpose. I help people overcome limitations and experience firsthand how strength transforms everything physically mentally and spiritually.
But I did not come into this work from a perfect background or a 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 and ego driven workouts that led to breakdowns instead of breakthroughs.
Then I found the Super Slow method. 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 is a full body high intensity approach done under controlled conditions with expert instruction.
No wasted time. No distractions. No guesswork.
It is grounded in physiology safe for any age and deeply effective. But more than that it is 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 is what hooked me and that is why I have stayed.
In addition to this work I proudly serve as the Co-Leader of the North Orange County Chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation (www.westonaprice.org), a nonprofit organization dedicated to education research and advocacy for proper human nutrition traditional diets and holistic wellness.
I share this role with my wife Dr. Amanda Bando (www.drbando.com). Together we are passionate about building community around these topics.
Through our chapter we host local events workshops and guest speakers focused on ancestral nutrition regenerative farming food freedom and real solutions for cultivating vibrant health in today’s world.
The Weston A. Price Foundation has been a huge part of both our healing journeys.
It is where we found answers when conventional thinking failed us and it is where we continue to find purpose as advocates for returning to the simple time tested principles that nourish the body mind and spirit.
This work like Sacred Strength is all about connection.
To your body. To your community.
To the truth about what makes us strong not just in the gym but in every facet of life.
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.
“I’ve never enjoyed resistance training but I recently started working out with Joe Bando 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!”

“I am on week four! 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!”

“This 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.
