My coaching style is focused, adaptive and supportive. My training specializes in intensity, motivation, and patience. I will be your biggest fan, supporting you on your fitness journey and celebrating every accomplishment no matter how big or small. When you win, I win. My favorite way to stay active and healthy is by walking/hiking, lifting weights, boxing, and light yoga. I may look like a rough and tough son of a gun, but I'm actually quite friendly and kind of a "nerd". I enjoy reading and researching various topics, and being creative. I'm also a big sports fan, especially football, MMA/boxing, and hockey. The best part of my job is meeting great people and helping them achieve their fitness goals so they can be at their best both physically and mentally. Physical exercise is not only beneficial for physical and cardiovascular health, it can also help with brain health, helping to create new brain cells and slows cognitive decline.

Something fun to know about me is that I play the guitar! I also am involved in a lot of things here at the college (NDSCS), including being a Soccer Captain, DECA President, being apart of band, choir, and now basketball!

My coaching style is "Eat big, lift big." My main training focus is functionality, focusing on movements that are applicable to things we do in our day to day lives. I am always finding new ways to challenge myself. I've done a variety of competitions including powerlifting, strongmen, and a triathlon. Next year I will be competing in my first bodybuilding show (2026). The best part of my job is signing someone up and watching them grow over the months into the best version of themselves. I love seeing the day to day changes that are instilled in my members and the positive impact fitness has on their lives. I have been a NASM certified PT for 6 years now and recently graduated from The University of Iowa with a Human Phys degree.

Hello! My name is Nate Kern and I am the Club Manager here at Anytime Fitness in Wahpeton. I am originally from this area and moved away when I was young, I am returning to spend some time with some of the older members of my family. Growing up, I tried every sport my parents would allow. From soccer to hockey, football, baseball, and many others. I always enjoyed the competitive nature that was in each sport. During college, I became fascinated with weight training. I was able to transition my competitiveness into my workouts and keep that same energy from when I played all those sports. My goal as a Club Manager is to provide all our members here with a great experience. To build a community where we all push each other to be the best version of ourselves. My favorite part about my job is when I can see the confidence that working out can create for someone. There is no better feeling than the satisfaction you get from putting in hard work!

My coaching style described in three words: Clarity, Communication and Commitment. My training specialties focus on general operations of the equipment and amenities at the gym. My favorite way to stay active and healthy is by participating in outdoor water sports and eating healthy. The best part of my job is helping my members achieve their goals. In my free time, I moonlight as an ice technician at various ice complexes. I am also an Audio Engineer. I mix live music and have my own recording studio. I play rhythm guitar, bass and drums.

My coaching style is collaborative, focused, and empathetic. My training specialties are Patience, understanding, and actively listening to what each individual client needs. My favorite way to stay active and healthy is walking, shooting hoops, and training at the gym every day. The best part of my job is helping people reach their goals and become the best possible version of themselves. I’m a huge football fan and take a lot of my fitness inspiration from NFL trainers. I like to make art and music in my free time, and I was even hired to compose the soundtracks for a few short films over the years.

Working with members to help achieve their goals is what made me realize this is something I love to do. I’ve been a part of the fitness industry for 2 years now and moved up quickly to become an Area Coach of my own clubs. This has shown me that creating an everyday friendship with co-workers and members is one of the best parts of my job! I’m looking forward to growing our fitness community inside and outside of the gym and helping our members achieve all goals!

I am Jess! My fitness journey started 14 years ago as a stay at home mom looking for a way to lose baby weight and get out of the house. I had the crazy idea to start playing roller derby. What had originally started as a fun hobby, turned into an obsession with health and fitness. I am a competitive athlete that currently plays for a WFTDA team, Ann Arbor Roller Derby, ranked 9th in the region and 38th in the world. I have worked in gyms for nearly a decade, both in management and as a CrossFit trainer. When I'm not at the roller rink or gym, you can find me at the skatepark on the halfpipe. Watching people reach their goals and accomplish things they never thought possible is the number one motivator that keeps me going!
