Meet the Team - Personal Trainer Russell Hill
This week on Meet the Team, I caught up with Russell Hill, one of our trainers at Club Fit. A central Arkansas native, Russell has worked in the fitness and wellness industry for more than 40 years. Having spent more than a decade as a competitive bodybuilding and powerlifting athlete he recognized that while competitive athletes were self-motivated the majority of those needing to exercise were not. This is where he believed he could help.
Russell's passion is to help those who think they are beyond making substantial improvements in their level of fitness, safely reach their goals. His specific interest is in helping those with medical and orthopedic concerns exercise safely and effectively in such a way as to minimize the effects of their condition(s) and improve their levels of fitness, energy and health.
If you have medical or orthopedic concerns do not assume you cannot exercise safely and effectively until you schedule a time to meet with Russell. He can help ensure you are able to reap the benefits of safe, effective exercise.
Although he began college as an art major, Russell found his calling to be kinesiology. He loves witnessing a client’s revelation that they can improve their health, mobility, balance and increase their energy allowing them to continue doing the things they enjoy for years to come. He has seen first hand that everyone can improve upon these areas regardless of where they start their journey.
Russell received his B.S. from the University of Central Arkansas and carries multiple certifications (CSCS, CPT, CHC and PNL1 Nutrition Coach) but believes that the greatest contributer to his arsenal of information has come from decades of hands-on experience along with his close association with physical therapists over the course of his career. If orthopedic or other health issues have dissuaded you from beginning an exercise program consider scheduling a consultation with Russell. There is no charge and it could be the beginning of a truly life changing experience.
Russell is married to Pam and they have three daughters. He is a voracious reader, an amateur movie critic and loves spending time with his family which usually consists of any outdoor activity or preparing for the upcoming sports season.
Due to his area of expertise Russell has limited availability but is willing to work in any way possible with those who need his help. Contact Club Fit to check his availability and to schedule an in person or phone consultation!
