Carissa Tompkins – Holistic Health/Strength Coach- Empowering YOU to be YOUR strongest

My name is Carissa and I am a trainer here at Self-Made Folsom. I have 7-years of experience in the fitness industry. I played volleyball all through high-school and after I was done, I needed another outlet. That’s when I discovered weight training. I fell in love with training and the challenge. As I progressed, I wanted to use my knowledge to help others. I liked helping others be the best version of themselves, I didn’t know how I would do that. Once I was certified, I discovered this was my purpose. I needed to be out there helping as many people as I could. Once I started training people, I’ve had the opportunity to help a wide variety of people get to their best selves.

Fitness isn’t just a job for me; its a lifestyle. My journey began with a deep-seated desire to help others transform their lives through exercise and wellness. Whether you’re aiming to loose weight, build muscle, improve flexibility, or enhance overall fitness, I am here to guide and support you every step of the way.

I offer a comprehensive range of services designed to help individuals achieve their fitness goals effectively and sustainably. Nutrition plays a crucial role in achieving fitness goals. I offer personalized nutrition plans and guidance to complement training programs. I help clients stay motivated and push them to be their very best. I believe in fostering a supportive and motivating environment to keep clients inspired and committed to their fitness goals. I help with injury prevention. For clients recovering from injuries or medical conditions, I provide specialized exercise programs aimed at rehabilitation and safe recovery.

Tiffany Cooke – Personal Trainer in Folsom

My name is Tiffany and I have been a personal trainer for over 12 years. My fitness journey started when I was 20. I grew up in a broken household naturally that came with its struggles as a young adult. I became overweight, overwhelmed, in pain, constantly tired and sick. At that point I decided to hire a trainer, hit the gym and give myself what I really deserved. As I lost 40lbs I found myself pain free. A life filled with Self worth, love, happiness and health. Since I was a little girl I aways wanted to help people. I could never figure out how I wanted to help up until I lost my weight. I knew right then I wanted to be a personal trainer. I took a huge leap of faith and put all my efforts into my education. With that I chose to live out of my car for a year. This was to focus on my studies instead of working multiple jobs to afford a home. That determination made me a stronger person. My goal as a personal trainer is to help educate others on nutrition, how to use equipment and how to be in tune with your body. Provide you tools that can be used for life. Fitness isn’t just about how you look, it’s also how you mentally feel. Working out provides clarity, manages depression and anxiety. Being sick, tired and in pain all the time is no way to live. Helping my clients find the best version of themselves brings me a lot of joy.
