Kevin Ashley

Kevin Ashley is an ASFA CPT (Certified Personal Trainer), and Fitness Friend feels lucky to have him on the team. His two greatest passions in life are fitness and helping others, and he feels that his choice to become a personal trainer was inevitable because of this.

He has lots of experience in functional bodybuilding and athletic performance training, and feels these two styles are ideal for building strength and athleticism and for increasing mobility. He believes this type of training is actually beneficial for everyone, since it helps keep the body pain and injury free through the aging process, in particular by building resilience in the knees, hips, low backs and shoulders.

He is a true exercise science expert, and he loves seeing his clients get the results they are looking for. He is a successful trainer largely because of his ability to properly assess his client’s needs and goals, and also through his careful attention to detail in terms of programming and in coaching his clients on proper form and technique.
