My name is Bryan Hopkins, I'm a ISSA Certified Personal Trainer.
What got me into fitness was myself, I was 265 lbs. and I found myself truly beginning to hate myself, I knew that I had to make a change so that is the reasoning behind me getting into the fitness world. I got into personal training when I worked for the Yadkin Family YMCA and I started there not knowing anything about fitness, I didn't really know how the body nor muscles worked, but being there I found a passion that I didn't know existed. I have been strength training for about 5 years now and enjoy every minute of it. I have had my ups and my downs battling demons within, because everyone has their ups and downs but I push through so that I can be the best version of myself but not just for myself but for my family and friends. That is what makes me thrive in this career I want to help people be the best versions of themselves because I know what it is like to struggle and want to give up but I want to be their motivation to show you that anything is possible.
