About Collin

Hi Everyone! My name is Collin Roland and I am a passionate Personal Trainer who has been training for over four years now. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Science and Certifications in Corrective Exercise and Sports Performance Training. I love to be in the outdoors hiking and climbing and just finished competing in an Ironman Triathlon Race! My training style is in Functional Fitness getting clients ready for anything life throws at them. Whether you want to get better at hiking, biking, swimming, weightlifting, or running; I can help you reach those goals! I also specialize in coaching those with physical or intellectual disabilities learn or re-learn how to use their bodies and helping them reach their fitness goals. This gives me the unique ability to scale exercise programs to fit clients' needs no matter their ability level! I’m excited to help you along on your fitness journey towards being the best you and getting in the best shape of your life! Let's do this!


My favorite client story

My favorite client story would have to be about the journey one client took to finally reach their fitness goals! He came to me wanting to run a Half Marathon Distance race, but had always been discouraged because of his lack of muscular strength and endurance. With a progressive program and some good hard work and consistent accountability help from me, we were able to get him to his goal within 6 months!! Not only just to finish the race, but to smash our initial goal time of 2:30:00 hours!! SO proud of him, and on to the next one!!

My favorite exercise

My favorite exercise is the burpee! It's so versatile and it coordinates most of the muscle groups in the body at once to perform this move correctly. Don't be daunted though, it's my favorite because it can be scaled up or down to meet any client's ability and fitness level!

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Collin. He’s laidback but very encouraging. The workouts we did were strenuous and fun. He gave me helpful/easy to remember tips to improve my form which I incorporated in daily activities which helped to eliminate some minor discomforts. Compared to what other trainers in the city charge he is very reasonable. I would without hesitation recommend Collin and by the way I’m 68.

I have learned so much from the 2 months working with Collin. He has made me stronger in every aspect of my life and his workouts kick my butt on a weekly basis. Besides training me on the weekend he provides specific weekly training plans for my goals (currently half marathon training) and checks in with me during the week on my progress which helps keep me in check. He provides videos for any exercise I have questions for and helps me through anything I am struggling with. If you are looking for an A+ personal trainer with attention to detail who will encourage you along your journey, Collin is your man. Put in the work and you will see results!

Collin is an absolutely AMAZING personal trainer! My partner and I have been working out with Collin since October 2020 and we work out with him once a week. We started working out at the gym with him. When first meeting Collin, he was so professional, motivating, kind, and best of all, he has the best sense of humor. Even with everything being crazy with the COVID Pandemic, Collin adjusted and we worked out from home. My partner and I have gotten so much stronger, leaner, and are meeting our goals. We honestly wouldn't feel this good about ourselves without Collin's help. Collin will be moving soon and we will continue to work out with him virtually because he is that amazing! If you are looking for a fantastic, funny, and motivating personal trainer who switches it up, look no further than Collin! :)

Collin creates a customized program and is dedicated to coaching me to achieve my fitness goals, with expertise and encouragement. 7 pounds of fat lost, 3 pounds of muscle gained so far! Couldn’t ask for a better trainer.

Colin works with me to produce a personalized training plan to achieve my fitness goals, and gives positive feedback to reinforce the improvements that I show during workout. Don't miss out if you get an opportunity to work with him! Highly recommend!

I have been training with Collin for a year. I like the experience and outcome very much. Collin's program is dynamic, fun, and effective. Since working with him, I have been able to keep challenging my limits and feeling accomplished after every session. Thanks to his uniquely designed remote training programs, I did not slack at all during this pandemic crisis and stayed strong, healthy, and optimistic. Collin has a super cool personality and is an awesome buddy to work out together.

Collin is a great trainer, professional, caring and knowledgeable about the different exercise routines based on the needs of each individual. Collin is also super knowledgeable about the human physiology and exercise recovery, which is a crucial part of exercise. Working out with Collin made me more aware of my body movement and an overall exercise plan that can help me achieve my weight loss and strength building goals.

Collin has helped me not only get stronger and become more fit, but more importantly I feel better about how I look.
