Chris Watson's involvement in fitness began early on with an interest in bodybuilding that
led him to compete in several championships. Upon initiating his studies in health and fitness,
he came to understand that common methods for achieving top physical
form do not always contribute to maintaining optimal health. His drive and curiosity
propelled him to want to learn how to attain true fitness and lifelong vitality, and he
ultimately wanted to use these learnings to help himself and others reach greater levels of health.
His career path in the industry began in 1997 at Body Quest Fitness Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota,
where he was first certified as a fitness trainer by the American Council on Exercise (ACE).
To take his skills and knowledge to another level, Chris enrolled at the world renowned C.H.E.K Institute
in Vista, California. While working toward his certification as a CHEK Level II Practitioner,
he realized that a CHEK education provided many distinctive avenues of learning that would
lead him to become a top conditioning expert and health consultant. Since relocating to
California to further his education, Chris has achieved certification as a CHEK Holistic Lifestyle Coach (CHEK HLC Level III),
CHEK Golf Biomechanic, and is working to advance his studies as a Level III Practitioner.

Confident in the effectiveness of a holistic multidisciplinary approach, Chris continued to further his
learning through participation in a 1000-hour Sports Massage Neuromuscular Therapy program at the prestigious Western Institute of Neuromuscular
Therapy (WIN Therapy). Upon graduating from the program and becoming a licensed
Neuromuscular Massage Therapist, he quickly became Nationally Certified in Therapeutic
Massage and Bodywork (NCTMB).
To better address the nutritional challenges of his clients, Chris enrolled at the Healthexcel
Metabolic Typing Education Center, a research-based company leading the way in customized
nutrition. He is now a Certified Metabolic Intermediate Level Typing Advisor.
Having also learned the merits of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) in helping clients
overcome roadblocks to achievement in all areas, Chris most recently earned his certification as
an NLP Practitioner. This background allows him to address health issues
from a mental and emotional perspective so that clients may fully achieve optimal health
in all aspects of their lives.
Chris Watson's persistent passion to stay on the cutting edge of the industry has enabled
him to make a meaningful difference in the lives of his clients.
