Bio
Coach Jeremy is a Proposal Engineer and one of the newest coaches on the floor at 4 Arrows. Originally from Winchester, Tennessee, he now lives in Fairview with his wife of 13 years, Brianna, their two children, Maddox (6) and Heartlee (9), and their two cats, Barkley and Blakely.
His Fitness Journey
Jeremy’s love for fitness began at age 13 when he started training for football, eventually leading him to become a national-level competitive bodybuilder. He discovered CrossFit when a friend invited him to a class, and he immediately loved the mental escape it provided. “While doing CrossFit, you cannot think of anything else for that time,” he says.
Though he has an extensive fitness background, Jeremy’s journey hasn’t been without its obstacles. He openly shares that he has weighed 280 lbs twice in his life because, despite working out, his nutrition wasn’t dialed in. Overcoming those challenges taught him the value of dialing in his habits outside the gym as well as inside. Today, he is motivated by his competitive spirit and his desire to stay healthy for his family. More than anything, fitness has taught him one core lesson: I can do hard things.
What He Loves About Coaching
Jeremy stepped into a formal coaching role to help others navigate their own fitness journeys. He loves helping people tackle difficult challenges and watching them improve week after week.
His coaching philosophy is straightforward: move to the standards safely and have fun while doing it. He hopes to lead by example—living what he teaches in both fitness and nutrition—and wants every member to know he is there to help them make the exact improvements they’re chasing. Ultimately, his goal is for his class to be the absolute best hour of your day.
Why 4 Arrows Is Special to Him
Having spent time in various gyms throughout his life, Jeremy says none of them have a community quite like 4 Arrows. The supportive environment and the members are what drew him in. When asked why he loves being part of this gym, his answer is simple: “They are my people!”
Outside the gym, Jeremy loves spending time with his family, reading his Bible, going to church, and getting outside in nature. His go-to healthy meal is cream of rice with ground beef, but if he’s getting a cheat meal, he’s heading to Farm Burger every single time!
