WILL HARRIS - OWNER & GENERAL MANAGER
www.coachwillharris.com / hirecoachwill@gmail.com
Since beginning my career in the fitness industry in 2005, my goal has been simple; to help people become the strongest version of themselves. As a strength coach, there is no better feeling than watching my clients succeed and discover their true potential.
I started my journey by climbing the ranks at metropolitan health clubs such as Bally Total Fitness and New York Sports Club, however most corporate style gyms are more concerned with sales than actually changing lives. While it was a great learning experience, I knew I had to go a different route. Inspired by the warehouse gym model (made famous by pioneers like Joe Defranco) where the quality of training, atmosphere, and RESULTS are what's most important, I decided to branch out and start my own business.
Over the past 15+ years I've coached athletes to over 75 top 3 finishes at sanctioned strength sport events, helped high-school athletes earn scholarships, trained celebrities, and worked with everyday people who just want to live healthier and happier lives.
As an avid competitive athlete, I'm a 6x winner of Delaware's Strongest Man and I've also competed in Powerlifting and CrossFit. I am a firm believer in leading from the front and I never ask my clients to do anything I wouldn't do myself.
Ultimately, I'm here to help you reach your goals regardless of your starting point and you can trust that I've been in the trenches and put in the work to give you the best guidance possible. If you're truly ready to get stronger both physically and mentally, I'll be there every step of the way with you on your journey!
