Bio
CSCS | Holistic Health Coach | Mind-Body Wellness
Kent’s interest in health and fitness started with his own experience. Growing up, he struggled with self-confidence, body image, and being overweight. In high school, sports introduced him to coaches and mentors who helped him learn more about strength training and healthy living, and that changed the direction of his life
Since then, Kent has spent years learning more about strength training, nutrition, and holistic health. He has worked with middle and high school athletes on speed and agility, strength athletes focused on body composition, adults wanting to improve their quality of life, and clients with dementia and neurological disorders. He also brings experience as a former college baseball and volleyball player and spent three years working as a physical therapy technician.
For Kent, fitness is not just about workouts. He looks at the bigger picture and how exercise, nutrition, mental health, lifestyle habits, and overall well-being all work together. One of his favorite verses, 1 Timothy 4:8, reflects the importance he places on caring for both the body and the person as a whole.
TRAINING PHILOSOPHY
Kent believes in getting a little better each day. His approach is personal and relationship-based, with an emphasis on trust, consistency, and helping each client figure out what actually works for their life.
His sessions are structured and goal-focused, but he also wants training to feel comfortable and enjoyable. He focuses on building a plan clients can stick with rather than chasing quick fixes.
WHAT DO CLIENTS TYPICALLY ACHIEVE WHEN WORKING WITH Kent?
Kent’s goal is to help clients improve their overall quality of life in ways that matter to them personally. That might mean getting stronger, moving better, staying consistent, improving daily habits, or simply feeling more confident in what they are doing.
He provides the accountability, motivation, and direction to help clients keep moving toward their goals without feeling like they have to figure everything out on their own.
