About Justin
Justin has been involved with the gym in one form or another since his childhood. He discovered his love of fitness when his father took him under his wing and began training him for football when he was 15 years old. His father’s “Iron Therapy” molded him into a top varsity athlete. As Justin learned more about anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and nutrition, it solidified his passion and his career path.
For 25 years, he’s helped those that wanted/needed to better themselves including athletes that were looking to improve their position performance to an elderly woman that wanted to combat her vertigo. In addition to being a skilled and experienced trainer, Justin has played semi-pro football, been a powerlifter, and a strongman.
He enjoys working with clients of all ages. He won’t just be your trainer, he will educate as the sessions continue. Justin wants you to be learn as much as you can while you take this journey. It is this feeling of fulfillment that drives Justin to help those wanting to improve their current lives and be stronger all around.
Strength is more than physical; it’s the will to persevere.

About Jocelyn
Jocelyn began her sports journey at the young age of 6. Sport of choice, Basketball. With basketball being her passion, it would fuel her drive to one day playing at the collegiate level. However, it was not without it’s challenges.
As a teenager, Jocelyn’s health took an unexpected turn. She became extremely ill. Constant biopsies, and endless blood tests, all the while missing school and sports. Eventually the doctors would diagnose her with an autoimmune disease that would force her to strip away her current diet and start from scratch and undergo intense treatments.
Despite these set backs, she was determined to re-gain her health and get back on the court. It took months, but through discipline and hard work, she persevered and was cleared to play again. Fate it seemed wasn’t without some irony, she tore her ACL her senior year.
Instead of giving up, she turned inward, and after her recovery finished her senior year in track & field, which she excelled at. She threw further than she ever imagined, gaining the interest from East Carolina University. Jocelyn hasn’t looked back since.
What began as a setback, turned into an opportunity, allowing her to pursue her dreams, and chase new ones.
