Colton has had a rollercoaster of a relationship with fitness. Starting in 2009, he began training with his first Personal Trainer. He didn’t know it at the time, but he had just taken his first steps toward achieving his dream body. In 2011, his goal was to lose enough weight to join the Marine Corps, and in 2012, he made his goal. While serving in the Marine Corps, Colton fell in love with lifting and fitness, leading his unit physical training sessions as well as pushing his friends and fellow marines in one-on-one sessions. After the Marine corps, stress and other mental health blocks kept him out of the gym and led to significant weight gain, which Colton would hold onto until the pandemic. In January 2021, he became a client at Anytime Fitness. He he has fallen in love with fitness again so much so he pursued his personal training certification. Colton’s goal is to help others to overcome the pitfalls that he struggled with and help others develop a passion for fitness.

My passion for fitness began in high school. I played soccer my entire life, but I really enjoyed the intensity shift in the training once I got into high school soccer. I experienced lots of injuries while playing, horrible knee pain and lots of physical therapy. That really sparked an interest in learning more how the body works and the training I could be doing to prevent injury. I began coaching soccer, I enjoyed teaching and helping my players reach their goals. All of this encouraged me to get my bachelor’s degree in Fitness and Sport Coaching from the University of West Florida. But I still wanted to do more, so I got my Personal Training Certification through ISSA and began my journey into the fitness world. I want to help people reach their goals! My goal is to help others become their healthiest and most confident self, whatever that looks like to you, I want to help you get there however I can
