Manager

Health and fitness was never something that I placed a lot of importance on growing up. After years of eating poorly and not taking care of myself, that started to show. I decided that I was not happy with the person I had become and feared for what would follow if I didn't change. In January 2015, I jumped head first into adopting a healthier lifestyle through exercise and nutrition. As a result, I was able to lose 70 lbs. and became a happier version of myself! I am now a nationally certified personal trainer through the American Council on Exercise. I am confident that I can help any client through the many challenges that I experienced myself and help you get to a happier and healthier place!

I'm a graduate of the Health Promotion and Wellness program at UWSP and a Certified Wellness Practitioner (NWI). My personal take on wellness is helping people be the best version of themselves, through numerous aspects such as fitness, nutrition and emotional wellness. I love helping people achieve fitness goals they never dreamed of! My favorite exercises are the sled push and the hack squat machine!

Dana Krug

Manager

As a graduate of the Health Promotion and Wellness program at UWSP and a Certified Personal Trainer (ACSM), my stance on health and wellness is that it’s much more than exercise and nutrition. It is multidimensional, involving every aspect of your life. I love being part of others’ fitness journeys and assisting them in becoming the best versions of themselves! My favorite exercise is a HIIT-style workout.

Brian Stearns

Trainer

I'm originally from Oconomowoc, WI and now live in Rome. I began coaching in 2017 when I received my personal training certificate from ACE. Since then I have received two additional ACE certifications, Health Coach and Group Trainer. I was the Operations Manager at the Anytime Fitness in Mauston prior to moving here. I now run my Real Estate business full-time which is a true passion of mine. Besides apartment flipping, selling homes, and working with investors I do have a few other past-times. I compete in professional Timbersports AKA lumberjack competitions. I compete in the World Championships annually, and have been ranked top 5 in multiple events in the past. I love to travel, snowboard, wakeboard, and hunt. I am all around just pretty active. I am looking forward to working with you in the mornings to accomplish your fitness goals!
