Chris – Founder & Strength Trainer

Many of you don’t know me…… So here is a little information about myself! I started in the health and fitness industry about 10 years ago.  I was always super active growing up in the small town of Havre, MT, and thoroughly enjoyed being outdoors and competing in sports. I played every sport that I possibly could growing up as it was definitely my childhood passion.  I was involved in football, wrestling, track, and baseball in high school, and outside of school and sports spent a lot of time out on my friend’s ranch/farm working.  After graduating high school I attended Montana State University Northern playing football and finished my bachelor’s degree in business.  It wasn’t until shortly after a couple of years working in management after college that I noticed I was helping a lot of people with their health and wellness through training at the gym in the mornings before work.  I developed a passion for helping people through teaching my younger sister who has cerebral palsy which means she is mentally and physically handicapped to learn new things and enjoy her life.  After realizing my passion for health and wellness I decided to get my Master’s Certifications through ISSA just to learn more about the body, nutrition, and how the body works and moves.  I was vacationing out here in CDA when I made a jump decision that I wanted to move out here and pursue my passion in helping people better and change their lives.  Since then and a little before I have been involved in MMA, Bodybuilding, Triathlons such as IRON MAN, and Spartan races.  I’ve studied on my own and through separate certifications and have developed my knowledge so much through these last 10 years I feel extremely confident as your coach.  Let’s together achieve growth and progress efficiently with STRENGTH THROUGH MOVEMENT,  but more importantly learn to sustain your healthy and injury free lifestyle and find joy while doing it!
