Hunter Else applying chalk before a powerlifting lift – Focused, disciplined meet preparation

UNLEASH YOUR INNER STRENGTH

This is not a gym. This is not for comfort. This is where strength is forged.

I train bodies to endure. I train minds to overcome. You will sweat. You will suffer. You will grow

Meet Hunter

As a U.S. Army veteran, I understand discipline not as a concept, but as a way of life. My training practice is brutally physical, forged in the same fire that shaped soldiers and built strength under pressure. I’m an elite-level powerlifter with a total that speaks for itself—earned through years of relentless effort, not empty motivation. Certified through ISSA in Personal Training and Holistic Health and Fitness, and licensed by the Iowa Board of Educational Examiners, I coach athletes to endure, adapt, and dominate. This isn’t wellness. It’s preparation—for pain, for power, for whatever comes next.

Training Philospohy

Strength is not given. It’s earned—through pain, repetition, and discipline. My philosophy is simple: train hard, train honest, and train with purpose. I don’t believe in shortcuts or soft approaches. I believe in showing up, putting in the work, and letting the results speak.
