DJ Chandler

Hello! My name is DJ Chandler and I am a trainer here at 10 Fitness in University, Arkansas. I started my career at 10 Fitness after being out of work for over 2 years due to the pandemic and saw that 10 Fitness was hiring. I have been involved in the fitness industry for over 15 years and really enjoy the positive environment it produces. Being able to directly help individuals improve overall health and wellness is what I strive to always achieve in my work goals at 10 Fitness. One problem that I am able to solve for my clients is the functionality of correct form and posture. If my clients will tell you anything about me, it’s that I cared and didn’t give up on them.

I grew up in Bryant, Arkansas and I have a B.S. in Human Physiology with a Minor in Nutrition and History. UCA and HSU. I also have the basic overall knowledge of the biomechanics of exercise and nutritional areas. When I am not working as a trainer for 10 Fitness, you can find me involved in a variety of sports like mountain biking, kayaking, scuba diving, etc. I also really enjoy anything that has to do with history, physics, and psychology. I have various sports/academic awards and I fully support and appreciate the non-profit Wounded Warriors Project.

A few interesting facts about me are that my favorite movie is Tombstone, my favorite book series is Lord of the Rings, and I’m half White – half Pacific Islander. I also have a few quotes that really speak to me: “A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.” by Bruce Lee and “If you want a happy ending, that depends, of course, on where you stop the story.”
