Why we Do What we do

Welcome to The People's PT, where fitness meets accessibility and community. My name is Cody Casanave, founder of this initiative and a certified personal trainer. As a high school senior, I've experienced firsthand the transformative power of fitness—both physically and mentally. But I've also seen how the high costs of gym memberships and personal training can make this life-changing journey feel out of reach for many.

That's why I started The People's PT. My mission is simple: to make fitness accessible to everyone in our community. Whether you're taking your first step into the gym or looking for guidance to take your routine to the next level, we're here to help—without financial barriers holding you back.

Our Goals

  • Service - Partner with local community centers to connect with individuals in need.
  • Community - Foster a supportive network of trainers and trainees working toward shared goals.
  • Education - Equip you with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to navigate the gym independently.
  • Inclusivity - Create a welcoming space for everyone, regardless of fitness level, age, or experience.

How We Work

We believe that fitness should be empowering, approachable, and free of intimidation. Here's how it works:

  • Two Free Training Sessions: Contact us to schedule your complimentary 30-minute personal training sessions. These are designed to set you up for success, whether it's your first gym visit or your first step toward a new goal.
  • No Strings Attached: Our mission isn't to keep you reliant on us; it's to give you the confidence to work out independently.
  • Honesty Matters: We trust that those who reach out will be transparent about their financial situation so we can prioritize those who need this service most.

  • Ready to Take the First Step?

    The gym is more than a place to work out—it's a space to discover your strength, build confidence, and connect with others. At The People's PT, we're here to open that door for you. Let's redefine what's possible, together.

    Contact us today to schedule your free sessions. Your fitness journey starts now!
