Keith Russel
Certified Personal Trainer
Hi, my name is Keith Russell born and raised in Fort Meade, Fl. As a kid growing up I was always smaller than the other kids and lacked confidence, until 1 day during a middle school basketball game the varsity football coach saw me take a charge from a bigger kid during the game . After the game was over he came up to me and asked me my name and told me he wanted me to start lifting weights with the varsity football team. That is where my love for weight training began . By the time I was a senior in high school I was 170lbs , benching over 365lbs, squatting over 570lbs and cleaning over 315lbs. But most of all my confidence grew and I wasn’t shy anymore. I love training just as much now as I did back then when I was younger . Now I just love helping people achieve their goals they have set. So in all I’ve been training and lifting weights over 20 years . I get joy out of helping my clients reach their goal, no matter if it’s losing weight , gaining weight, strength training or just getting active . Training with me I’m not just your trainer I’m like family I will check up making sure you are good physically and mentally. So if you want to have some fun ,train hard, and get results I’m your trainer.

One of my own personal goals for my clients is to present fitness, exercise and nutrition as a long lasting enjoyable lifestyle to improve the quality of your life!

Levi Heltebran
Certified Personal Trainer
My name is Levi Heltebran and I graduated with my bachelor’s degree in applied exercise science in 2022. I became a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach shortly after graduating and have been following my passion ever since. I have been an athlete all my life and even received a division 2 track scholarship at one point. I started weight training when I was 13 years old and have been obsessed with learning the intricacies of it ever since. After discovering my passion for my own training, I learned that I love helping others achieve their goals even more! This realization when I was 16 years old sent me down my current career path and I have never looked back.
