About
I’m Chris Free, a personal trainer based in St. Petersburg, Florida with a degree in Exercise Science and Gerontology. I’m a certified trainer through the American College of Sports Medicine and years of hands-on coaching experience. My approach is simple: train hard, train smart, and build a plan you can actually stick with.
I work with people who want more structure, better workouts, and a coach who pays attention. Whether your goal is building muscle, losing weight, or feeling more confident. I’ll help you take the guesswork out of training.
Client Reviews
‘WORKING WITH CHRIS FOR OVER A YEAR, I SAW SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT IN MY OVERALL FITNESS, STRENGTH, AND FLEXIBILITY IN ADDITION TO MY STARTING GOAL OF WEIGHT LOSS. HE TOOK INTO ACCOUNT MY PHYSICAL LIMITATIONS FROM PREVIOUS INJURIES TO CREATE A PERSONALIZED WORKOUT EACH SESSION AND MODIFIED EXERCISES WHEN NECESSARY. CHRIS PUSHED ME TO WORK HARDER BUT DID THIS WITH POSITIVE ENCOURAGEMENT AND ALWAYS FOUND WAYS TO MAKE THINGS FUN. I NEVER DREADED A SESSION AND HIS SUPPORT DIRECTLY CONTRIBUTED TO MY COMMITMENT TO IMPROVING MY HEALTH. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND CHRIS FOR ANYONE LOOKING FOR A TRAINER TO HELP THEM MEET THEIR FITNESS GOALS.”
— Jennifer C.“ I am a strong believer in reading reviews and this is why I would like to acknowledge Chris Free as an excellent personal trainer. As a slightly older person it's hard to change and open up to new wellness routines and fitness. Chris is the best trainer I have ever worked with. He is amazing in the fact that he is so patient,kind and easy to learn from. He accessed my capabilities, and designed a routine that was not only obtainable, but enjoyable (yes I said that) for me. He takes the time to treat each person with respect and no judgement and truly cares about his clients. Knowing that he is available both in person and on line is only a bonus. I cannot recommend Chris Free enough if you want a change.”
— Karen E.“Training with Chris is more than workouts-it's about progress, consistency, and fun along the way! He pushes me to be stronger while keeping things light, making even the toughest sessions feel achievable.
What do I appreciate most? His positive energy, patience, and ability to make fitness feel less like a chore and more like a lifestyle. Whether adjusting workouts to fit my goals or looking out for my small injuries, he has always been a reliable coach.
If you're looking for a trainer who knows their stuff and makes the process enjoyable, I can't recommend Chris enough!”
