The team
Every FitU trainer is held to the same three-part standard: competence in the craft, genuine care for the client, and results that actually last.
"Before FitU, I worked somewhere every trainer just ran their own random workouts, with no system behind it. If I ever had to hand a client off, I felt guilty, because I knew they'd still be working out, just not actually training. That's the moment this system was born."
How we build our team
Jack built this internship from scratch, and it's sharpened with every trainer since. Every trainer on this page came up through it, which is why the coaching you get doesn't depend on who's on the floor that day.
Stage 1 · 50+ sessions
Interns sit in on live sessions and grade the trainer against our Session Checklist, learning the standard before they're asked to meet it.
Stage 2 · 50+ sessions
They introduce and manage the flow of a session under a senior trainer's supervision, building the reps of running a room.
Stage 3 · 50+ sessions
They train real sessions while a senior trainer critiques their cueing, programming decisions and how they handle the person in front of them.
How you're paired
"I've lost about 40 pounds, but more importantly, I've learned how to truly take care of my body. I'm constantly hitting new PRs and doing things I never thought I was capable of. My younger sister trains here too, and seeing both of our progress speaks to the quality of coaching across the board.
The energy, the people, and the support make it a place you actually want to show up to."
Meet the trainers
Founder and Head Trainer
Jack has trained clients since 2014 and started FitU in a 400 sq ft garage in January 2020. He grew up overweight with a huge appetite, until an arm injury in high school sent him to a physical therapist who showed him he could change his body. Clients say he's best at helping them identify their gifts and find real food freedom. He and his wife, Olivia, have four kids.
"Your body is a gift worth caring for."
Head Trainer
Coaching at FitU since November 2021. Justin's greatest strength is building meaningful relationships and helping clients discover their personal reasons for training, so together they can make intentional decisions that line up with their goals. Outside the gym, he's blessed with a wonderful wife and three children, and he loves reading, writing and spending his Sundays watching the Philadelphia Eagles after church.
"There's always an opportunity to improve your health, even if what that improvement looks like changes through different seasons of life."
