ISAAC SPILKER
I am an ISSA certified personal trainer and nutrition coach with 2 years of experience working at HCC. I believe that fitness is not a one-size-fits-all journey. My approach is to create customized training programs tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals. Whether you’re looking to lose weight, build muscle, improve athletic performance, or simply lead a healthier lifestyle, I am here to guide and support you every step of the way. Over the last couple of years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of clients, from beginners to athletes. Seeing my clients achieve their goals and transform their lives is the most rewarding part of my job. When I’m not training clients, you can find me training for an upcoming weightlifting competition, teaching fitness classes, or getting outside and hiking with my beautiful wife Abby. Here is what people are saying about Isaac. Jefferdine Rochester says she has been working out with Isaac for over a year now, and she loves it. He makes it fun, and encourages me to keep going when I really want to quit. It feels like working out with a friend! Kim Schrader says she could not recommend Isaac enough, he “fearlessly pushes me beyond my perceived limits, always encouraging and motivating me to achieve more than I thought possible. His dedication and passion for helping clients reach their fitness goals is truly inspiring. With Isaac by your side, you will surpass your own expectations but also discover a newfound strength within yourself”
