ELISSA CARROLL

OWNER/PERSONAL TRAINER/STRENGTH/STRENGTH FOR LIFE/YOUTH

Elissa has lived all over BC and southern Alberta before she finally settled down in her hometown of

Sparwood BC. In 2010, after a struggling with weight and body image for all her teens and early 20’s, she decided to make a change. Unfortunately, with the mass amounts of misinformation out there she

found herself on the other end of the spectrum, severely undereating and over exercising. She knew

there had to be a middle ground.

She started diving into exercise and diet for health and performance. During this time, she fell in love with the human body and how much it was capable of. Knowing how hard it is to navigate exercise and nutrition alone she became a Certified Personal Trainer through NASM in 2018. After a few years training clients, she realized how many others have the same struggle she did. By obtaining a nutrition certification she would be able to help others even more. So, in 2024, through NCI, she did just that.

Elissa loves spending time with her family and friends, especially outdoors. Helping others and seeing

them succeed is one of the things that she enjoys most. Her aim is to support clients with compassion,

understanding, knowledge and accountability to help them reach and maintain their goals.
