OUR COACHES
Our trainers and coaches are some of the best in the industry. We strongly believe in the benefits of having someone guide you along the way and drive your best possible performance. The best athletes across all professional sports have multiple trainers. Why should you be any different? We specialize in providing hands on help in anything and everything from nutrition, form breakdown, program design and in person education. Our staff is constantly growing, learning, improving and seeking further education. This is what separates us from the rest.
JC BATRES, CSCS, PN1.
Owner/ Head Coach.
JC has been working as a personal trainer and coach for over 12 years. Growing up, he was constantly bullied and made fun of for being skinny and weak. Initially, he began weight training seriously after high school with the goal of gaining size, strength and confidence in himself. Eventually, he fell in love with the results gained from strength training and began competing in both olympic weightlifting and powerlifting. JC has dreamed of owning his own gym since his youth and now focuses primarily on powerlifting, strength training and helping his clients get as fit and as strong as possible. JC does both in person 1 on 1 training as well as remote coaching and has a flexible schedule. He is always taking on new clients. Follow him on instagram. @ChapinStrength
