NICK ARCIAGA
Nick is a Certified Personal Trainer (Elite Trainer designation) with the International Sports Science Association; concentration in nutrition and fitness coaching. I try to focus primarily on overall wellness. I believe it's not just about looking healthy, but feeling healthy. I think nutrition and fitness go hand-in-hand. I try to be a good listener to my clients and help them reach their goals to their own accomplishments they want to reach. I have been training active military, retired military, reservists, and local amatuer MMA fighters for fitness tests and specific regiments for speed, agility, and quickness. I have also worked with the general population to provide a basic workout routine to help with mobility and functional movement throughout their daily activities. Recently, I have been training clients interested in local strongman competitions hosted between Ogden and Salt Lake City. I grew up in Layton, Utah and have always been involved in sports and recreational activities since grade school. My personal hobbies are motorcycles, restoring classic vehicles, hiking, art, and spending time with family. Currently, I am working on the following certifications through NASM: MMA Conditioning Specialist, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Quickness, Agility, and Mobility Specialist.

JOZIAH BILLINGS
I am a certified personal fitness trainer through the National Exercise and Sports Trainers Association (NESTA). I am currently working on the NESTA Certified Fitness Nutrition Coach and Lifestyle Weight Management Specialist courses. My love for health and fitness began in my PE and weight training classes in junior high and I have been running and weight training ever since. I was a track & field and cross-country athlete in high school and was the only pole vaulter in my school to qualify for the state championship, putting me on Fremont’s top 10 pole vault records. Now, I work as the Utah Air National Guard Fitness NCOIC and love helping my fellow airmen stay fit to fight! My specialty/focus is on functional, well-balanced training as well as whole-food, plant-based nutrition recommendations to help others achieve a lifetime of strength and longevity. I believe in the power of the human mind and body and want others to be confident and useful in their own skin! Some personal hobbies of mine these days include spending time with my beautiful wife outdoors or watching The Office.
