LUKE ELDER
I’ve been a personal trainer for five years, and in that time I’ve dedicated myself to helping people build strength, confidence, and long-lasting fitness habits.
I’m a Certified Personal Trainer (CPT) with an additional certification in Athletic Conditioning, which allows me to work with clients of all levels, from beginners to competitive athletes.
Before becoming a trainer, I played college basketball, an experience that shaped my understanding of performance, discipline, and what it takes to push past limits. I’ve also coached basketball, giving me a deeper appreciation for teaching, motivating, and developing athletes.
I strive to create a motivating, supportive environment for everyone who walks through the doors. Whether you're looking to improve your athletic performance, get stronger, or start your fitness journey, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

ABBIE LIGHT
With the fitness industry being full of things you 'have' to do instead of things you have a desire to do, my goal is to make sure your training is something you enjoy while still accomplishing your goals.
My background experience contains competing in weightlifting for four years, one year as a state competitor, and four years playing softball. This ultimately turned my desire to training and that desire led me to being a Girls Weightlifting Coach as well as the Middle School Softball Coach at Wildwood Middle High School.
Experience in training with ages ranging from 12-85 years old.
NASM- Certified Personal Trainer
CPR/AED- Certified
