Gordon and Kelly Kent

Gordon and Kelly have been in the Health and Fitness Industry for a combined 20+ years, both in one-on-one and group training.  Gordon was born and raised in Orange County and moved to Northern California to go to school at UC Santa Cruz where he majored in Biology.  It is also there that he met Kelly.  They returned to Orange County and were married in San Clemente in 1999.  Gordon and Kelly both hold certifications from the National Academy of Sports Medicine and Gordon also holds a certification in Postural Alignment from the Egoscue University in San Diego.  Both Gordon and Kelly are certified in Advanced CPR and First Aid.

Fitness has always been a part of Kelly’s life. She started out as a gymnast at the age of 7 and ended her career at the age of 14.  She began weight training at the age of 15 to help her minimize the back pain she sustained from a nasty fall she took on the uneven parallel bars.  The minute she picked up her first dumbbell she was hooked.  At the age of 16 she competed in her first figure competition in San Francisco, CA and took first place.  She continued competing successfully until she took a break when she underwent spinal fusion at the age of 20.  When Kelly was 24 she was put on bed rest for her pregnancy with triplet girls.  She remained there for 3 months unable to get out of bed.   She successfully gave birth to her beautiful little girls but had the task ahead of regaining her strength due to the muscle atrophy that took place while on bed rest.

Kelly, now 31, loves her career in training.  Having gone through such traumatic experiences she understands what it is to be fit as well as what happens to the body when left inactive.  Kelly’s expertise lies in her ability to relate to the athlete as well as those new to fitness or those trying to get back into shape.

Gordon and Kelly have always been very active people.  Gordon spends his free time surfing or teaching Kelly and his little girls to surf, weight training, hiking, running or swimming.  Even trainers need trainers, so Kelly and Gordon take turns training each other.  They say it keeps their workouts entertaining.  They truly believe that working out needs to be fun or it just won’t happen.  That is why they created Fit Camp.  They wanted to give people a fun and affordable way to get and stay in shape.  They wanted to give people another choice from the smelly, crowded gym and show them that they can get an even better, more exciting workout while enjoying the outdoors and the camaraderie of others.

Fit Life 1 has the sole mission of bettering people’s lives through fitness.  Whether you want to get back into training, need more motivation and encouragement, or are tired of the same old gym routine, Gordon and Kelly want to help you be the best you can be.  We are all capable of so much more than we know. We all just need to learn how to dig a little deeper within ourselves to pull it out.   Gordon and Kelly are Committed to their clients, Dedicated to their success and Understand that not all people are the same and that each person requires individual attention.
