About

Hi, I’m Cody and I am the creator of For The Core.

I am an NASM Certified Personal Trainer, Nutrition Coach and Wellness Coach.

I wanted to make this a space where EVERYONE is welcome. A place for those who, like I once was, are feeling uncomfortable, afraid or nervous to ask for help. My goal is to create somewhere for ANYONE to go and ask for guidance to make positive changes in their life and how they view themselves.

Growing up I was depressed and full of anxiety and because of that, I was afraid to ask for help, for guidance and for direction. With all of those feelings I was the quiet, overweight kid that got bullied. I was too intimidated to seek guidance from the “fit” people I had around me, and the trainers that I finally got the guts to speak with had their own predisposed assumptions of what MY goals were. I didn’t care about being the most “shredded” guy like they assumed, I just wanted to be healthy and feel better about myself.

I want this program, this group, this aspiring community to be a safe-haven for any age, shape, color, creed, belief, gender and orientation to come and ask for help. Help with FITNESS, help with NUTRITION, help with mental and emotional WELLNESS.

I’m not going to say I am the answer but I will do my BEST to help in any way I can. I got into this field because I want to help, I want to help in the ways I wasn’t able to find help when I was scared and frustrated, help any and everyone that has body image issues, wants to eat better, feel better and needs guidance for their overall wellness. I want to help give YOU that voice and confidence, that I wanted so desperately.

Joining For The Core will hopefully help you find all of those things and more.

I’m looking forward to talking to and meeting all of you that want to join or to see what For The Core is all about.

Welcome to For The CORE!
