Check out what past Fitness Quest 10 interns have thought of being apart of this great family and team: 

“Fitness Quest 10 is an oasis from life’s daily grind. I am very fortunate to have earned this once in a lifetime opportunity work alongside and be a part of the Fitness Quest 10 family for these past 3 months and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. The staff, clients, and members of Fitness Quest 10 have treated me with kindness and respect throughout the duration of my internship. At Fitness Quest 10 they provide more than just a fitness environment but an environment where the mind and spirit can grow.   These are amazing, educated, and gifted people that work at Fitness Quest 10 who truly enjoy helping people. I will always call FQ10 home no matter where my career takes me.   I love these guys.” Ryan Roberts

“What I loved most about working at Fitness Quest 10 was the family environment. We weren't just interns or coaches there at FQ10, we were a family, striving to help athletes and clients achieve their competitive, health and fitness goals. My definite highlight of the summer was going out to IDEA and actually putting other trainers and coaches through designed workouts. It really elevated my confidence and allowed me to apply what I have learned. The summer internship program provided me with a whole spectrum of athletes and clients, from kids to professional athletes. I loved being able to train all different types of people. We would help train NFL players one hour then very next be training high school athletes. I recommend any inspiring trainer or coach to join the Fitness Quest 10 team.” ~Adrian Vera

“Participating as a summer intern at Fitness Quest 10 has provided me with a diversified and enriched learning experience. I have learned in a hands-on environment, which has taught me numerous aspects related to training high school, college, and professional athletes, as well as the general public. During my internship I have grown in my knowledge of conditioning, nutrition, public awareness and motivational leadership skills. My life is forever changed.” ~Kelsey Crooks

“If I had to choose 3 highlights from my summer internship at Fitness Quest 10 they would be:

1. Commitment to positive energy - Todd Durkin really taught me that living in a positive way was a choice that we could make each day. His mentality is infections and has made a lasting impression on both my professional and personal life.
2. Variety of employee expertise – The variety of employee backgrounds and expertise fostered a complete and comprehensive approach to health and fitness.
3. “Family” of employees and clients - I was immediately treated as a welcome and contributing member of the Fitness Quest 10 team. Fellow interns and myself adopted this closeness and worked together each day to create a positive experience for clients. We truly encouraged and challenged each other to grow and improve daily.

Thank you Fitness Quest 10 for everything you have taught me.” ~Lisa Parsons
