Not only are we great at our profession of fitness training, but also everyone brings a high level of energy and customer service each day, to each workout!What life accomplishments are you most proud of?The birth of my first child, Sage Melia Pierce, and having an awesome marriage to my wife Emily are the most meaningful accomplishments of my life.
