We are excited to announce another addition to the coaching staff, Jeff Franzen. Jeff has been with us for a couple of months already. He brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the Magnus team.
With more than 9 years of coaching experience, Jeff has trained hundreds of people through all different experience levels. His passion for training has always driven him to continue to learn and grow to best be able to help others on their fitness journey.
Jeff didn’t grow up as an athlete and spent much of his early life avoiding physical activity. That all changed in his early 20s when he realized that he no longer felt comfortable or confident in his body. Unsure of where to start, he signed up for a membership at a commercial gym and hasn’t looked back since.
After a move to Denver, Colorado, Jeff began training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. On the side, he started doing CrossFit to get stronger for Jiu-Jitsu. Jeff’s focus quickly turned to CrossFit after finding a deep enthusiasm for strength training. In 2012, he realized we wanted to be a leader in the gym space and help others find their own passion for movement. He began interning and eventually became a full-time coach. Since then, Jeff has coached at multiple gym locations in Denver, Los Angeles, and Portland. He continues to be driven by his dedication to help people meet their strength, movement, and fitness goals.
