Current research definitively shows that as we age into our 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and beyond, it is more important than ever to work on our strength, mobility, and overall fitness in order to extend our longevity and increase the quality of our “healthspan”. It is never too late to start.
Recognizing that everyone is unique, Scott is dedicated to helping his clients reach their specific fitness objectives, whether it’s building more muscle and strength, increasing cardio health, losing excess body fat, improving agility and balance, recovering from injury, developing better nutritional habits, or some combination of all of the above. As a Senior Fitness Specialist, Scott emphasizes the importance of safety while working with a client’s potential physical limitations.

Kris Austin
Hi, I am Kris, an effective trainer with over 10o years of experience helping clients achieve their health goals. I’m a former athlete from Oxford, Mississippi. My love of training began as a football player while attending William Penn University where I was awarded a bachelor’s degree in Strength and Conditioning. My specialties are group training as well as working with clients one on one because it awards me the time to make sure my clients leave happy, healthy and injury free. I’ve created successful programs and consistently helped clients reach their goals without totally giving up the things that they love. My philosophy when it comes to training is it’s not how much you lift, instead focus on what you can do with great form and control which yields better results. Be consistent with your training you’ll be consistent with the results.
Dominic Tripodi
From a young age, I was passionate about sports, finding myself playing on teams year-round for soccer, baseball, and basketball leagues. In middle school, my primary sport shifted to basketball, and after joining my high school varsity team my sophomore year, I became introduced to a variety of structured training routines to enhance my performance. In 2015, I tore my calf muscle during off-season which brought me one-on-one into the world of sports recovery and training. Here, I saw the benefits of a personalized fitness program, as my trainer helped me recover and rebuild my strength, balance, and flexibility to get me back on the court in a few short months. That next year I went on to become captain of my varsity team and MVP of the Sonoma County League. I was recruited to play at the collegiate level from multiple universities but opted to pursue my passion by obtaining my degree in Kinesiology.
As a Personal Trainer, I specialize in personalized workouts fit to achieve the exercise goals of my clients. From injury rehabilitation, where we can focus on restoring your physical health using a range of exercises, to physique and high intensity interval training to build muscle mass and stamina. I can cater to your unique needs and want to help you be the healthiest and strongest version of yourself.
