Morris Elite Training, LLC

I was born in Southern California and currently reside in Olathe, KS with my wife and son. I have always been physically active and enjoyed playing basketball, competing in track and field, and surfing. Conditioning has also been a priority of mine and I have tried to increase and intensify my conditioning levels throughout high school, military, and in college. I have developed a passion for training and being physically fit.

I joined the Armed Forces at the age of 18 and completed a tour in Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom. Before deploying to Iraq I conditioned myself to be the most physically fit in my platoon. I was not going to be the one that was left behind. I wanted to prepare myself for the unexpected, make sure my body could endure extreme conditions, and be ready to do what whatever was asked of me.

After being honorable discharged from the military in 2005 and entering into civilian life I realized how not having a structured environment affected my physical fitness. I no longer was required to do PT in the mornings or be tested on my physical fitness. Because of the lack of structure I started to eat whatever I wanted and did not exercise on a regular basis. After a year of this lifestyle, I had gained a considerable amount of weight and knew it was time for a change. With the help of a personal trainer I was able to regain the self confidence in my body image that I had had before being discharged from the Military.

I fully understand the importance of being held accountable by someone other than myself. Through my personal experience with weight gain and loss I have developed a passion to help others on their journey of weight loss or personal improvement. With my expertise in training, I have not only been able to improve myself, but I have also helped my clients achieve their fitness goals.

I currently train at Excel Wellness Studio in Overland Park, Kansas. I am a Certified Personal Trainer and hold NASM Certificates in Corrective Exercise Training and Performance Enhancement.
