Jordan Cox
Major: Nutrition and Foods (Dietetics)
Hi all, my name is Jordan! I'm a sophomore here at App State, and my major is nutrition and foods with a dietetics concentration! Weightlifting, fitness and movement in general are big passions of mine, so being able to share that with others is a dream come true. I've been a NASM certified personal trainer for a little under 2 years, and my mission is to help everyone interested in any fitness niche to be safe, supported, and successful!

Jose Sanchez
Major: Exercise Science
Hey there, my name is Jose and I am a Personal Trainer through ACE. When it comes to fitness I like to learn and incorporate all forms of exercise into my daily routine. Such as weightlifting, Olympic lifting, trail running, indoor cycling, HIIT cardio, rock climbing, and Pilates, just to name a few. My goal as a trainer is to show everyone that no matter the age or fitness level, they can always reach their desired goal.
