Alex
HI! My name is Alex Arnold. I've been training off and on for almost 15 years. I'm currently at SLCC to further my education and I'm pursuing my degree in exercise science to work towards a CSCS after my Bachelor's. I hope to one day achieve a graduate degree in athletic training.
I played sports my whole life and first started training while enlisted in the US Army from 2008-2012. I was certified at the time through NASM and became my platoon PT NCO. I also began playing semi-pro Football for a team in New York. After the military, I signed a contract with a new football team based out of central Washington where I spent time working at a box gym and then moved into group fitness and weight loss style, studio gyms, where I began to specialize in weight loss and injuries. In 2016 I worked a summer job in Alaska at a salmon processing plant. One thing led to another, and I ended up fishing during the peak salmon and crab seasons, and then returning to train and play football during the spring and fall.
I moved to Utah in the spring of 2022 to ask my wife to marry me. She said, "yes", and I officially retired from commercial fishing in the summer of 2022. I am now playing football for a team out of Draper.
I have a deep desire to help people and a real passion for improving your life through fitness. Everyone deserves to be healthy and happy, and I always love to be a part of that journey. I love watching people succeed!"
Krissy
Hi all! I graduated from BYU with a bachelors in Exercise and Wellness. I am a NASM certified trainer with additional certifications in youth exercise and athlete performance enhancement. I love all things sports. I played lacrosse and soccer all growing up and went on to play lacrosse at the Y. Playing sports growing up started my love for exercise. I love being a coach because I get to watch first hand the way that exercise can positively effect not only their physical health but their mental and emotional health as well.
In my free time you’ll find me spending my time outdoors with my family or at home watching football. We love to camp, fish, rock climb and canyoneer. I am very excited to be apart of the amazing StayFITT community and can’t wait to meet all of you!
Mikayla
Hello friends, I’m Mikayla Milne, but you
can just call me KK or Kayla. I’m happily married to my awesome hubby, Matt, and our little family includes our fur baby, Jax.
I love to play softball, repping my team in Sandy. When I’m not on the diamond, you’ll find me riding trails on my MTN biking, hitting the gravel for a hike or soaking up the great outdoors. Back in the day, I was all about gymnastics and dance -ballet and hip hop were my jams. I further joined theater for a while that boosted my overall confidence.
High school brought a shift to track and field, where I threw Javelin and shot put.
We even got to throw with the pros up at Utah State. My farthest throw with Javelin was 102ft -qualifying to throw at BYU for the finals which was an amazing experience.
Nowadays, I’m a NASM certified trainer, ready to expand my knowledge and skills. I’m excited to continue my education and experience on the floor. And pumped to be part of the Stay FITT community to help you find your motive and groove. I want to help others break old habits and start healthy new ones. Let’s achieve your goals and feel the best you! I’m can’t wait to meet you all.
DANA
Hi there! I’m Dana Penrose and I am originally from the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. I have been back in Utah for almost 8 years and absolutely love it here! I completed my degree in Exercise and Sport Science with an emphasis in Human Movement Science from Utah State University. I was a competitive ballet dancer from a very young age, around the same time I watched my Dad workout on his airdyne bike for what seemed like hours. A passion for movement was instilled in me from a very young age, and I found a great love as I grew up for weight training and exercise of any kind. From powerlifting, to competing in figure competitions, to CrossFit, to group fitness classes, you name it, I have done it and have loved every bit of it. I also worked alongside my father in his company where he rehabilitated patients who had back and joint injuries using purely exercise therapy. My father passed away 15 years ago and I feel I honor his life’s work and passion every time I pick up a weight. I earned my NASM-CPT certificate with the hopes of sharing my passion for training with as many people as possible. I am fascinated by the human body and its capabilities. I am a lifelong learner and am constantly reading and learning new things fitness related or other, all the time. When I am not in the gym you can find me traveling and spending time with my fiance Mike and my step daughter Poppy and our dogs Max and Bentley. I am stoked to be a part of the StayFITT Family, and so excited to meet every single one of you!
LYNDSEY
StayFITT is excited to introduce our newest staff member, Lyndsey to the team. You may have already seen her around, randomly taking pictures , interviewing, and recording some of our coaches, or sessions. Lyndsey interned with us for a while over this last year, helping with marketing and administrative tasks and we are so happy now that she has “officially” become part of our team.
She recently graduated from Western Governors University with a Bachelor of Science Business Administration, Marketing degree. She is super excited to continue to learn and grow in her field as she takes on new tasks here at StayFITT and continues to hone in on the skills that she has already learned.
