About Monica

I am Monica Armstrong, a U.S. Navy veteran turned personal trainer, motivated by a journey of resiliency. After the military, I worked in cybersecurity, spending years at a desk and witnessing firsthand how sedentary lifestyles impact strength, posture, and overall health.

My path to fitness was personal. After undergoing a spinal fusion (L3-L5 TLIF), I had to relearn how to move and rebuild strength from the ground up. Fitness became more than about exercise, it became my foundation for life. Along the way, I overcame an eating disorder and continue to manage POTS and hypermobility.

I coach with empathy, lived experience, and evidence-based programming helping clients build strength that supports long-term health and confidence.
