Rebel Strength and Fitness Coach Nelson

Coach Nelson
Group Fitness Coach

NCSF Certified Personal Trainer

Coach Nelson’s journey started just like many of our members – walking through the doors unsure if he could keep up, had limitations (a bad knee) and a goal to lose weight.
Since joining Rebel, he’s lost over 50 lbs, built incredible strength (including a 600 lb deadlift), and transformed into the strongest version of himself.
Having lived the transformation himself, Nelson knows exactly what it’s like to start from square one. Now he pours passion, energy, and belief into every class he coaches.
Our community LOVES him because he makes you feel like family while pushing you to levels you didn’t think were possible.

WHAT SETS US APART FROM OTHER GROUP FITNESS GYMS

Rebel Strength and Fitness offers the best group fitness program for a few reasons.

 

#1. We have a balanced strength training program that franchise group fitness gyms do not offer. Gyms like OrangeTheory, FitBody, BurnBootCamp, and F45 are all high intensity focused with limited strength training options which make it easy to burnout and limit your strength gains! Our intensity levels vary throughout the week with workouts that are centered around a progressive strength training program so that you can sustain this lifestyle and continue to get stronger on your fitness journey! 100% of our members get stronger from joining our gym.

 

#2. Our classes are capped at 14 so that we can provide 1:1 coaching and help each individual with modifications that fit their needs. Good form is #1 here. Most group fitness gyms have 20+ members where form is easy to get overlooked.

 

#3. We truly are for all fitness levels. Trials are required to come in 30 minutes early before your first class to review your background and go over a movement assessment with a coach. This helps us find your starting point and serve you best! Finally, we make you feel like family as soon as you walk through the door and make fitness feel FUN! When it’s fun, it makes it easy to show up, when it’s easy to show up, then you become consistent. When you become consistent. then we hit the jackpot because now you’re set up for life!
