Personal trainer spotlight at FFC

Hello FFC! My name is Elijah Depiore and I grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio. I currently go to college in the loop and fitness has been a passion of mine for my entire life. I played football in high school and had a chance to train with various strength and conditioning coaches. As a trainer, I love to identify the areas in which my clients are able to grow the most and make sure they reach their goals while having fun. See you on the fitness floor!

Elijah will be doing an open Q&A on Monday, October 23 from 5:00 – 7:00 PM. Stop in, ask questions, and sign up for a free training consultation!
