Chris
Gomez, Master Trainer-
I have been training since I was 13 years old. It began with personal goals for sports and sprouted to a
passion and love for exercise. I've been a certified personal trainer for the past 6 years and completed certifications
with the National Academy of Sports Medicine (N.A.S.M.) and National Federation of Professional Trainers (N.F.P.T.).
I am currently pursuing my certification as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (C.S.C.S). I
received my Bachelor of Science in Physiology in May 2010 and focused many hours towards exercise physiology and worked with
numerous professors at U of A (Dr. Scott Going and Dr. Doug Keen) in exercise related research. I am completing my Masters
of Science in Physiology at the U of A and hope to perform research in Dr. Scott Goings body composition laboratory.
I have a deep connection with my clients and have specific visions for each one. Personal Training is about teaching
individuals about healthy lifestyle habits, coaching and encouragement through efficient workout sessions, and the most essential
component, leading by example. I would love to meet anyone who is interested in ParsonsTraining!

the value of personal training when I myself was a client. It has brought so many positive changes to my life. I first share

Rick Dawson, Master Personal Trainer-
"I am NCSF certified. I worked for Bally Total Fitness for 4 years and earned Trainer of
the Year 2009 Hollywood, CA. I attended the U of A for a media arts degree. I am still an artist at heart, but I find my creative
fullfillment in body sculpting and dynamic exercise program design. I specialize in olympic lifting, strength training, body
building, weight loss, and overall fun challenging workouts. There is nothing more that puts a smile on my face than watching
my clients get results they deserve."
