Voted #1 Personal Trainers in Orange County
Harrel Carman, Owner
Harrel has long been passionate about physical fitness. He has competed in Baseball, Football, Basketball, Tennis, and Track & Field. You can still find him playing basketball most Saturday mornings and he has been competing in Flag Football tournaments with the same team for over 15 years. Harrel also regularly competes in Kettlebell Sport events and has won multiple awards lifting the 32kg kettlebell in the Men’s 85kg bodyweight division. Such an admirable commitment to physical health is actually grounded in a promise to others. Since Harrel was young, maybe around 5 or 6 years old, he decided to begin working for his ‘future family.’ Harrel’s dedication to his own health and fitness is a dedication to the family he has now, as well as the family he hopes to have (no kids yet).
His active lifestyle is further complemented by a background in personal training, one that Carman has continued to expand over the last ten years. He has completed certifications in NASM, Functional Range Conditioning, Onnit Battle Ropes and Steel Clubs, Orange Kettlebell Club, SCUBA, and CPR. Harrel’s favorite aspect of personal training is “how I get to interact with other people. Helping them learn more about themselves and the strength they have inside them.”
