...Jordan
Coach
I have my degree in Exercise Science from North Central College (2014-2016). Fitness has truly been a passion of mine, however exercise has not always been a part of my lifestyle. I played basketball all throughout high-school, but never really lifted weights due to being intimated from the gym setting. So, H4 really implements the kind of environment I always saw myself being a part of and working for: making sure every client is welcomed, comfortable, and cared for.
What is your favorite exercise? Pull-Ups
Least fav? Walking lunges
Favorite thing about H4? Easy: the clients. It takes me about an hour to get to H4, but that commute is a lot easier since I always look forward to working with every single client. The H4 Community is truly something special that cannot be replicated. I feel so fortunate to be part of such a great group.

Manager & Coach
I grew up in Geneva, IL, and graduated from the University of Alabama with a degree in Advertising (Roll Tide!). I discovered fitness is a true passion of mine, which fueled me to change career paths and become a personal trainer. I came to H4 in the spring of 2017 as a client. I instantly loved the challenge, as well as the support the coaches and other clients brought forward. I've been hooked ever since!
Favorite Exercise? Burpees
Least Favorite? Planks
Favorite thing about H4? The sense of belonging within the H4 Community. Seeing clients reach their goals is pretty awesome too.

...Gabe
Coach
Throughout high school I played some sports like boxing and tennis, but nothing really stuck; I tried to be healthier but lacked commitment. After high school, I started college with the intention of studying Criminal Justice. At the time I was pretty out of shape, and I decided to take up some weight training to get fit (to chase down the bad guys of course). Soon after, I fell in love with fitness. I decided to switch my career track to a fitness professional, and got certified a few years later. I loved that I could challenge myself and become a better me in the process!
My personal philosophy is that fitness is a catalyst for other improvements in one's life; a stronger body will create a stronger mind, and in turn will allow you to lead a great life where any obstacle only becomes a chance to improve.
Favorite Exercise: That's a tough one, it changes all the time! Right now I'd say I really love hill sprints.
Least Favorite Exercise: Calf raises (you can tell I don't like them, if my tiny calves are any clue).
What do I love about H4? The other coaches have said it best: the sense of community. I've been to other gyms - and while I've learned much and met great people - H4 has something special, and you can see it as soon as you walk in.

...Alexis
Coach
I grew up in St. Charles, IL and pursued a Bachelor in Fine Arts of Dance degree from Dominican University of California. After 16 years of dance training, my body decided it was no longer the best path for me, thus leading me to switch majors and graduate with a Bachelor's degree of Psychology. Growing up in the world of dance, I faced many struggles surrounding body image and weight loss. This combined with my love of movement is what led me to becoming a Personal Trainer. I can now teach others how to move their bodies and feel good doing it, in a safe and productive way. Apart from my Personal Training certification, I am also Kettlebell certified, Bodyweight certified, and Precision Nutrition level 1 certified.
Fav exercise: Any core exercise
Least fav: Walking lunges
Favorite thing about H4: I love that it is all about the clients at H4! The clients can always count on getting a great workout and learning something new every session.

Coach
Growing up, Danielle was surrounded by fitness. Her mother was a fitness instructor and her dad often ran marathons. But it wasn't until Danielle hired a personal trainer prior for her wedding that she fell in love with how fitness can change someone's body and the positive effects it has on one's mental health. After a hard year, Danielle decided to leave her desk job and focus on herself and continue to develop her passion she discovered 8 years prior as a personal trainer.

Coach
My love of fitness started as a child in the late 80’s with Kids Jazzercise and I never looked back. As I got older, my interest grew and I set out to learn and experience as much as I could. I truly believe that fitness is for everyone and that there is nothing more empowering than feeling strong.
Sharing my passion through helping others achieve stronger versions of themselves is the most rewarding aspect of training.
