DERRICK GREEN
I graduated from the University of Nebraska-Omaha in 2012 with a degree in Physical Education Teaching & Coaching K-12. I taught at Monroe Middle School from 2013-2019. During that time, I coached baseball, basketball, and football. I got my first personal training certificate in 2019 from International Sports Sciences Association. I got a second personal training certificate in 2021 from National Strength & Conditioning Association. I began my career as a personal trainer in May 2023.
I got into fitness because I enjoy teaching and helping people reach their goals and live a healthy lifestyle. I played sports growing up and was in and out of the gym. I could never find the consistency to keep going. In 2016, I began working with a personal trainer and saw tremendous results. My trainer held me accountable and gave me the tools to reach my fitness goals. I felt better, moved better, looked better, increased my self confidence, improved my relationship with myself and others, and made life long friends. It was at that time that I knew I wanted to become a personal trainer to help people better their relationship with themselves!
