Meet the FFT owner

 Hello, I'm Alec Taylor, a certified personal trainer accredited by the National Academy of Sports Medicine, and I'm here to help you achieve your fitness goals and live your best life! Let me share a bit about myself and my journey in the world of fitness and wellness.

I currently reside and operate as a personal trainer in the vibrant city of Columbus, Ohio. This beautiful city provides a fantastic backdrop for anyone looking to embark on a fitness journey, and I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

My passion for fitness was ignited during my high school years, where I was a multi-sport athlete. I dabbled in football and even took to the track. I found immense joy in these activities, but in hindsight, I realized I could have attained even more had I focused on proper training techniques. Like many young athletes, I neglected the importance of post-practice stretching. This oversight continued through my college years, and it took a toll on my body. Additionally, I didn't   always adhere to the right form when lifting weights, and I paid the price with an injury. My own experiences have taught me the significance of a structured and mindful approach to fitness.

My primary mission as a personal trainer is to work with individuals who are genuinely committed to getting the most out of their training and improving their everyday lives. I understand that your time is valuable, and your health is priceless. That's why I'm dedicated to ensuring you start with a firm foundation that will serve you for a lifetime. By mastering the fundamentals from day one, you'll be equipped to move freely and experience your best life.

One of the cornerstones of my training philosophy is teaching proper lifting mechanics and form. Whether you're a seasoned gym-goer or just starting, understanding how to perform exercises correctly is crucial for your progress and safety. I'll be there to guide you through each movement, ensuring you get the maximum benefit from your workouts while minimizing the risk of injuries.

But training isn't just about what happens in the gym. Proper recovery is equally essential. I will teach you the value of recovery following a workout, which encompasses various aspects, including stretching, nutrition, and overall well-being. Stretching helps your muscles recover and maintains flexibility. Proper nutrition is the fuel your body needs to perform at its best, and it plays a pivotal role in your overall health. I'll provide guidance on what and when to eat to support your fitness goals. Your recovery, both physical and mental, is an integral part of the training process.

Throughout my journey, I've had a unique perspective on the importance of physical activity and its impact on people's health. Before becoming a personal trainer, I served as a firefighter and EMT in the city of Toledo for four years. During this time, I witnessed firsthand the consequences of a lack of physical activity on individuals' health, not only physically but mentally as well. It was a powerful reminder of the positive impact that consistent exercise and proper training can have on one's life.

So, what do you say? Are you ready to embark on a journey to feel stronger, more flexible, and confident in the way you look and feel? If you're serious and fully committed to enhancing your health and well-being, I encourage you to contact me today. Together, we'll work towards your  fitness goals, creating a solid foundation that will serve you for a lifetime. Your journey to a healthier, happier you starts here. Get in touch, and let's begin this transformation together!
