Caroline

Owner

My passion is helping people transform their health, build confidence, and create a lifestyle they love. Through a combination of strength training, nutrition coaching, accountability, and support, I help clients achieve sustainable results without extreme diets or unrealistic workout programs.

Having experienced my own fitness journey, I understand the challenges of balancing health, family, work, and everyday life. That's why I focus on creating personalized programs that fit each individual's goals, lifestyle, and experience level.

I specialize in helping build strength, improve body composition, increase energy, and develop healthy habits that last. Whether your goal is fat loss, muscle building, improved mobility, or simply feeling your best, I'm committed to guiding and encouraging you every step of the way.

My mission is to create a positive, motivating environment where every client feels supported, empowered, and capable of achieving more than they thought possible.

Stronger. Healthier. More Confident. Together.

Amy Lipps

In 2017, a neighbor talked me into trying a local fitness facility. I tried this very program and it changed my life. Aside from losing 80 pounds, I learned so much about fitness and nutrition and also about compassion and self-love. I went through the process and became a coach and now manage Strong 1st Fitness. I love changing lives the way mine was changed, I love interacting with like-minded people and offering nonstop support for people who are interested in incorporating health and wellness into their lifestyle. Outside of coaching, I’ve been married to my best friend for 28 years, we’ve raised 3 amazing humans together. We are animal lovers and have fostered many puppies and kittens! We also love to snorkel and plan our vacations accordingly!

Zach Lipps

I have been an athlete all of my life and took a serious interest in weightlifting and different types of training while in college. When the opportunity came to start coaching at Strong 1st Fitness I jumped on it! I have a passion for teaching people not just how to work out, but also how our bodies are affected by exercise and nutrition. I helped launch our Small Group Training and have loved watching the program grow and level up our clients experiences. I’m also a full time student, recently returning to school to complete my RN. If I’m not coaching, I’m usually in the gym trying new workouts, or eating! Always on the gain train!
