An Introduction to Chris Fluck
Chris Fluck has spent his entire life in the world of athletics and strength training. Upon graduating college, Chris embarked on a coaching journey that continues to this very day!
For over a decade he patrolled the sidelines as a high school football coach, strength & conditioning coach, and wrestling coach. The experience he had coaching athletics played an integral role in his approach to training and coaching. He began to take a look at the bigger picture and realize that for most of these kids, college athletics was not in there future. What are these kids going to do to take care of themselves both physically and mentally when athletics were removed from the equation? Answering this question has become his life's work.
During his time coaching athletics, he owned and operated a training center working with a wide range of members. Anything from Division I athletes to senior citizens, Chris has had the opportunity to work with them all!
For him, the goal has always been quite simple: To create a positive training environment that will last a lifetime!
Chris currently resides on a beautiful horse farm in Williams Township, Pennsylvania with his girlfriend and daughter.
