A training plan built for you. Coaching that helps you put it into practice.
Work with Christopher Kellen in person at Southside Strength & Fitness or online, with programming, technique feedback, and accountability that evolve with your progress.
Online or in person, your training starts with your goals, experience, and how you move.
01
Stability. Create control.
Build better movement, stronger positions, and confidence under load.
02
Hypertrophy. Build muscle.
Develop the muscle, work capacity, and physical foundation needed to keep progressing.
03
Maximal strength. Build your capacity.
Turn better movement and greater muscular development into measurable strength.
Your exercises, progression, and support are adjusted as you improve. You get a coaching process built around you—not a generic workout template.
Learn how the training works
Stability
Effective strength starts with control.
Stability-focused training helps improve joint control, positioning, coordination, movement quality, and your ability to maintain strong positions as resistance increases.
Potential benefits include:
Improved balance and body control
Better joint stability
Improved exercise technique
Stronger supporting musculature
Better control through range of motion
A stronger foundation for progressive resistance training
Muscle Development
Hypertrophy-focused training develops muscular size, work capacity, and the physical foundation needed for continued progression.
Potential benefits include:
Increased muscle development
Improved physique
Greater muscular work capacity
Increased potential for force production
Stronger muscles supporting movement
A larger foundation for strength development
Strength
Strength-focused training develops the ability to produce and control higher levels of force.
Potential benefits include:
Increased overall strength
Improved performance on resistance exercises
Better coordination under heavier loads
Improved neuromuscular efficiency
Greater confidence progressing resistance
Measurable long-term progression
Stability creates control. Hypertrophy builds capacity. Strength teaches you to express it.
These qualities are not rigid phases. Programming should emphasize each one differently based on the client’s goals, experience, progress, strengths, and limitations.

More about Chris
My athletic foundation started with gymnastics and school sports. I went on to coach group training at Alaska Fitness and Anytime Fitness, and spent years helping friends and family build muscle and confidence. That experience led me to become a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and continue studying corrective exercise.
My approach brings physique development, movement quality, and strength together in a practical plan.
No. Your training is built around your current ability, experience, and goals. Beginners are welcome, and experienced clients receive a plan that meets their next challenge.

Billing is arranged directly with Christopher.
Billing arrangements
Billing, renewal, and cancellation arrangements are handled separately with Christopher. Booking a consultation or changing a member’s admin status does not authorize recurring charges or cancel external billing.
Kellen Training is an independently operated personal-training business. Christopher is a contracted trainer at Southside Strength & Fitness, but training is not limited to Southside Strength & Fitness. Other locations may be arranged by mutual agreement, subject to availability and facility permission.
Clients training at Southside Strength & Fitness must have their own Southside Strength & Fitness membership. Gym membership is separate from Kellen Training coaching fees and is not included in any training package.
24-hour cancellation policy
Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a training session. Exactly 24 hours’ notice satisfies this requirement.
Sessions cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours’ notice are charged at the scheduled session rate. For monthly training memberships, the session counts toward your monthly session allowance instead of creating an additional session charge. For an individually purchased session already paid for, that session’s payment is retained; you are not charged twice. No extra penalty fee applies.
This policy applies to paid training sessions, not phone consultations.
Missed appointments
A missed appointment without notice is treated as a late cancellation. For monthly training memberships, the missed session counts toward your monthly session allowance. The same session is never deducted twice. Coach-initiated changes are handled directly with Christopher and are not treated as client late cancellations or no-shows.
Monthly session allowance
Sessions must be used within the monthly membership period in which they are provided. Unused sessions expire at the end of that period and do not roll over. Your applicable membership period determines this allowance, not the calendar month. This policy does not apply to single-session purchases.
How does the Southside Strength & Fitness discount work?
Train with Christopher at Southside Strength & Fitness and be a current gym member or join before your training starts. You receive $80 off the standard monthly in-person coaching rate: $299 becomes $219 for 8 sessions, and $499 becomes $419 for 12 sessions. No additional commitment discounts apply. Your Southside Strength & Fitness gym membership is purchased separately. Christopher confirms membership and training location during your consultation.
What does selecting a commitment mean?
It records your preferred commitment and displayed monthly rate for discussion during your consultation. It does not start a contract, membership, or payment. Billing, renewal, and cancellation arrangements are agreed separately with Christopher before coaching begins.
