WEIGHT LIFTING
BODY BUILDING
Anna has a unique and intricate perspective on women’s fitness and mental health. She advocates for equal parts physical and mental exercise and incorporates it into her style of training. She became a trainer to help people become the best versions of themselves inside and out. Dumbbells train the body, conversations feed the mind. Her favorite aspect of the job is watching clients grow in knowledge and confidence throughout the months and watching them begin to achieve their goals independently. It is her goal for clients to feel as at home in a gym setting as they do in their own home.

Sherwood’s professional fitness journey began when he took on a 12-week transformation contest that changed his life.
