Henry Smith, Trainer and US Army veteran with over 15 years of experience in culinary, health, nutrition and fitness. While on active duty as a H2F (Holistic Health & Fitness Instructor), I’ve assisted and trained many soldiers to achieve, exceed and sustain the Army’s mission goal and standard of being “Fit to Fight”. My passion for myself and others is overall wellbeing and that starts with focusing on the five domains of life: spiritual, physical, mental, nutrition, and sleep. I love helping people find the better version of themselves and as a trainer and coach at Anytime Fitness, I’ll help and support you to meet and exceed your desired goals by providing purpose, direction, and motivation to achieve a better you.

Johnny grew up training with his father Coach John Van learning discipline, work ethic, and the fundamentals of strength and conditioning from a young age. What started with those early lessons has grown into years of advanced exercise knowledge, refined technique, and a deep understanding of body mechanics, nutrition, and supplementation. His foundation was built at home — but his expertise has expanded far beyond it. Coach Johnny is young, energetic, athletic, and a former soccer star with a passion for helping people move better, feel better, and train smarter. He’s known for creating effective, safe, and challenging workouts, and for finding smart alternative exercises that get results fast. If you’re ready to get stronger, leaner, more confident, and back in the best shape of your life, Johnny will get you there!
