Austin Boot Camp For Men Team

Craig Johnston
Head Boot Camp Coach

Craig, our southwest morning and central evening boot camp coach, is a Certified Personal Trainer and Performance Enhancement Specialist with the National Academy of Sports Medicine. He's earned additional certifications from ISSA and ACSM in Personal Training for Performance Athletics. He also holds an advanced belt in American Karate and is currently training for a national tournament.

Craig has trained athletes, gymnasts, and weekend warriors that all are dedicated to changing their lives and increasing strength, stamina, and performance.

"After working for the 'fitness industry,' I realized that people were not being given the tools to live healthy and productive lives outside of the gym.Trainers were not giving real personal attention to those struggling with health and fitness issues, nor were they educated well enough to help those that were serious athletes. This was why I left the gym industry and started working with individuals that are focused on personal health and performance -- not just athletes, but every day people that wanted to do MORE."

Keeping people motivated, and teaching them a fitness lifestyle based on good eating habits, and functional conditioning for power, strength, and flexibility has been the major force in Craig's life. He owes it all to God and thanks him daily for the blessings he receives.

In addition to coaching and motivating boot camp participants, Craig runs a non-profit corporation and travels as an international evangelist. Craig is happily married and is blessed with two beautiful children.
