We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Brett Owens. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Brett below.
Hi Brett, thanks for joining us today. We love heartwarming stories – do you have a heartwarming story from your career to share?
I’ve had quite a few in the last few years but one that stands out would be the fact that I helped one of my clients loose around 35 pounds in just a few months because he followed everything I told him and really committed to his lifestyle not only in the gym but outside the gym as well. With the weight loss he also noticed a huge change in the way he moved and felt. A lot of his aches and pains went away. I love being able to help people any way I can and that was a prime example of how rewarding my work can be!
Brett, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?
I got into the health and fitness industry roughly 5 years ago. I’ve worked every position at a gym from cleaning guy to manager. When I got my certification for personal training I realized that’s what I want to do. It’s fun, exciting, and of course rewarding! I love helping people reach there goals and being a person they can talk to if they ever feel like no one is listening or just need a second opinion. I love being the guy they can always rely on, no matter the situation I’m always here to give a helping hand. I work with a company called Trucapacity and they have helped me improve in ways I never thought were possible. They’ve been such a great support for me lending me guidance and wisdom and always there to help me with any problem I have in order to insure I’m the best personal trainer I can be for all my clients!
Can you tell us about a time you’ve had to pivot?
I was working as a trainer for a company for about a year. Making no money and not getting the time I needed with my clients that I would recommend for them. I was feeling defeated and as though I was just kind of stuck in this place with no where else to go. Then the people a trucapacity offered to help me. They let me use a nice private space I use now for training my clients one on one without having to worry about interference from other people. And I now earn what I deserve to be paid and it’s all under my control! I love the friendships I’ve made and the fun I get to have everyday!
If you could go back in time, do you think you would have chosen a different profession or specialty?
Without a doubt I know this is what I was made to do! I absolutely love this job and wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’m so blessed to have the family and friends on my side supporting me and making it all feel like a breeze!

I love this guy! Brett’s work ethic and dedication to health and fitness has been a huge inspiration to me. He’s one of the people that gave me a big push and cheered me on during the start of my fitness journey. His heart is so big, and he truly wants to see everyone be as healthy as they can be. On top of that, he is one of the funniest people I’ve ever known.
