Brandon Krueger '08

I was born and raised in New Braunfels, Texas, what is a small town no more.  New Braunfels is located in central Texas between San Antonio and Austin. The hill country is always a place for me.

I grew up doing anything and everything outdoors, baseball, football, soccer, basketball, and other outdoor venture.  Once I was in high school, I decided to focus on academics and baseball. I knew that at my size I would not be targeted by scouts, so it was more of a lifestyle than a future. As my senior year came to a close, I decided to join my sister at Texas A&M University; I had made numerous visits and thought it would be a great fit. As I discovered the Texas A&M recreation center, I fell in love with fitness and decided I should get certified. I began my employment with Texas A&M in Aug. 2006 working every chance I could until I began my internship with TrainWithCharlie in Jan. 2008. Concluding my internship Charlie offered me a job and I decided I would stay here in College Station. So, I began as an intern and now have become the Fitness Studio Director with TrainWithCharlie.

I began my training experience as a part-time job while in college; I enjoyed being in the gym as much as possible. The environment in a fitness facility is different than any other. It is a place to create a healthy new you, maintain that new you and just remove yourself from the stress of the “real world”. I continued training after college for a different reason; it became a way of life. I strive everyday to motivate my clients, just as they motivate me.

I am motivated through research found on eating healthy and regular exercise regiments have on the human body. I want to be able to grow up and take care of my future children without medical problems, as well as their kids. Also, the stress relief that I receive from working out is tremendous.
