Our fitness program pushes athletes both physically and mentally. By mastering tasks and overcoming obstacles, our athletes develop the confidence they need to succeed in the gym and in life. Through consistent exercise, brave determination, and expert support, our athletes learn how to improve their overall well-being. We believe the work they do here will lead to better management of daily life skills and a stronger sense of autonomy.
At Fitness 4 Focus, our goal is to help our athletes achieve their ultimate potential. Founder Chris Russell alongside participant Thomas McHale was with us Friday to talk more about the program and share details on the O-2 Challenge. Our focus on strength includes much more than developing weak or atrophied muscle groups. Trainers test the mental fortitude of their athletes by facilitating strenuous situations and studying the response.
Building more than muscle, trainers help develop the athletes' emotional strength and resolve. Even when an athlete arrives at the gym tired, upset, or relentlessly perseverating, our trainers celebrate the intrinsic strength revealed by the athlete's willingness to keep showing up.

Chris is the Founder and CEO of Fitness 4 Focus.
After college Chris returned to Central Pennsylvania where he began to work for a local agency as a Therapeutic Staff Support (TSS) from 2003-2012.
His primary role as a TSS was to provide intervention strategies in order to assist students in developing daily living, social and cultural skills.
In 2005, while playing catch during recess with a client named Tommy, Chris took notice that Tommy had deficits in areas that many take for granted.
Due to Chris' background in physical education and athletics, he immediately began to help Tommy improve in the areas of physical endurance, strength and coordination.
