“I have a lot of skills from my sports experience that can help people,” explains Kristin Jones, Elite Speed, Sports Performance Specialist. A life-long athlete from Colorado, Kristin started a grassroots effort to help others stay active during the pandemic with her business, The Fit & Fuel Youth Training Program. With a passion for fitness professionally and personally, Kristin’s mission is to help others get stronger, faster, and more consistent in their daily lives.

During the pandemic, Kristin saw a surge of people feeling unmotivated to exercise and spending too much time drinking wine and watching Netflix. Realizing her athletic skills and experience could be of service, Kristen worked to get people training not only for their physical, but mental health too. Ultimately, Kristin stresses the importance of building a sports foundation because it’s impossible to get desired results without that.

Tune into this week’s episode of The Code for an exciting conversation on seizing opportunities. Learn more about Kristin’s athletic and career journey, why you should have kids take ownership of their training, and the components of a quality warm-up program.
