OUR MISSION
Filley Fit exists to make expert personal training accessible to anyone, regardless of location or lifestyle. We believe all people benefit from consistent, purposeful movement — and that finding the right support to make it sustainable changes everything. Our programs are research-based, fully individualized, and delivered live over video so that geography, commute time, and gym access are never the reason someone doesn't reach their goals.

VIRTUAL PAIN MANAGEMENT
A biomechanical approach to understanding and managing musculoskeletal pain — conducted live over video. Rather than treating pain as an isolated symptom, Derek works to identify why pain is occurring in the first place, then teaches clients how to address it through corrective movement and progressive exercise.
This service is available virtually, meaning clients dealing with mobility challenges or limited transportation no longer face a barrier to accessing this type of support.
SESSION DETAILS:
-
Free consultation and biomechanical assessment (conducted over video)
-
30 or 60-minute session options
-
Root-cause approach: understanding why pain occurs, not just managing symptoms
-
Instruction in self-management strategies - clients can apply independently
-
Corrective exercise programming to address pathological movement patterns
-
Progressive programming to build resilience and avoid recurrence
WHO IT'S FOR:
Adults managing chronic or recurring pain — knees, back, hips, shoulders, ankles, and more. Especially well-suited for older adults and those with limited access to in-person rehabilitation services.
LIFELONG FITNESS - 55+
While Filley Fit serves clients of all ages, Derek has dedicated significant study and experience to working with adults 55 and older. Aging well requires a specific kind of expertise — one that balances challenge with safety, and short-term results with long-term independence.
The virtual format is particularly well-suited for this population. Sessions happen in the client's own home, in a familiar and comfortable environment, with no travel required. Derek is trained to design programs that are effective, safe, and appropriately progressive — whether you're brand new to exercise or returning after a long hiatus.
PROGRAM FOCUS:
-
Strength and muscle maintenance — critical for healthy aging
-
Balance training and fall prevention
-
Joint mobility and pain-free movement
-
Cardiovascular health and endurance
-
Independence — keeping you capable and confident in daily life
WHO IT'S FOR:
Adults 55+ who want to stay strong, move well, and age on their own terms — from the comfort of home.
Anna N. — Training from home, on her terms
I am a fairly fit 72-year-old woman whose normal exercise includes yoga and walking. I have osteoporosis, a hip alignment problem that is corrected monthly by a chiropractor, and a history of frozen shoulder. During the height of the pandemic, through inactivity, I lost a lot of whatever fitness I previously had. My upper body and gluteal strength and appearance were noticeably diminished. I have been working with Derek for only about 2 ½ months, twice a week, and I am noticeably stronger, more energetic, and even look a bit more toned. The “normal” aches and pains of aging seem to have almost disappeared and I am even enjoying yard work, previously not my favorite thing, because I feel so good. After an initial intake session, which included a thorough interview and physical assessments, Derek customized a program for me, which he updates after each session and modifies appropriately if I inform him of any unusual soreness. Derek is 100% with me as I do each exercise, running alongside me, giving encouragement and additional tips as we go along, and providing spotting or physical support with weights, when I need it. I am also learning a lot about personal health and exercise physiology because Derek has such a strong education in these areas. I have never before enjoyed exercising in the gym and know I would not have ever gotten into a good routine if not for working with Derek, who makes it all a lot of fun and who feels like a good friend.
