About Sam
Hello! I’m Sam Colbert, and I wanted to work an active job in a health facility for a company with a good reputation for providing quality service to its members, and 10 Fitness is that place for me.
I have been training individuals in the health and wellness field since 2018. My educational background includes a bachelor's degree in exercise science from the University of Central Arkansas, where I also completed my master's in exercise science and nutrition.
Professionally, I am known as a trainer who focuses on resistance training and incorporates functional lifts into all of my programs with the goal of creating the highest quality of life possible for my clients. With my athletic background, I also effectively help clients improve their physical performance when that is their goal.
What excites me most about my work is education. I am passionate about teaching my clients new ways to improve their health, which reminds me why I chose to work in this field.
One of the best problems I'm good at solving for my clients is breaking through plateaus. I excel at helping clients who feel stuck at a certain point in their fitness journey to break through and progress toward their goals.
When I'm not working, you can find me riding my bicycle, spending time with my girlfriend and our dog, playing video games with my friends, or watching anime.
Personally, I'm passionate about the relationships I create with the people around me. I get inspired every day by these relationships, motivating me to be a better person and work hard to foster these connections.
I grew up in Greensboro, Arkansas, a small town roughly 45 minutes north of Little Rock. I currently live in Maumelle, AR, a town within the Metroplex of Little Rock.
In terms of volunteer activities, I enjoy helping with yard work, as most of my volunteering experiences have involved such tasks.
The only awards and medals I have are from completing triathlon events, which I enjoy doing for fun. It would be impossible for me to give up Trident tropical fruit gum, as I have been chewing it since I was 13 years old.
I want to be remembered as someone who cared about their friends and family and who was a person of high integrity.
My favorite quote is: “It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.” - Socrates
My favorite movie is the "Lord of the Rings" series, my favorite book is "To Kill a Mockingbird," and my favorite podcast is "Mind Pump."
A fun fact about me is that I like to do triathlons in my spare time.
