Alex’s dedication and care made all the difference

Meet Alex Boettcher, Strength Coach at Zenith Performance and Wellness. 

Alex Boettcher’s journey into strength training started a little later than most but has been nothing short of transformative. As someone who didn’t connect with traditional sports growing up, Alex discovered their true calling at the age of 23 when they entered a weight room for the very first time. The simplicity and raw power of barbells and dumbbells sparked an immediate passion, and it wasn’t long before Alex was chasing the thrill of lifting heavy.

This enthusiasm eventually evolved into a love for the sport of Strongman. Despite facing challenges during their first competition, Alex was hooked—not just on competing, but on the continuous process of building strength and resilience. Along this journey, a deep curiosity about training methodologies emerged, inspiring Alex to learn how to help others achieve their strength, mobility, and endurance goals. This drive led them to become a certified personal trainer through NASM.

Now, with over 13 years of experience, Alex specializes in working with individuals new to the gym or those who have faced negative fitness experiences in the past. Their goal is to help these clients build confidence and a strong foundation for lifelong fitness. For more experienced athletes, Alex brings expertise and personalized strategies to refine training and achieve ambitious goals in both fitness and sport.

When Alex isn’t in the gym, they enjoy exploring hiking trails, belting out tunes at karaoke nights, and creating imaginative adventures as a tabletop role-playing game master for friends.

Rarely do you meet someone so well suited for their job as Alex is for physical training. His kindness, commitment, and patience to helping clients grow in strength and confidence is unmatched. The passion for his work is clear and felt by everyone in the gym. He worked tirelessly to find solutions to shoulder and neck issues I struggled with for over 10 years. He never gave up even when I was frustrated with my own progress. I am able to do exercises I never thought possible, and I can dance the night away harder than I did in my 20s. I will forever be grateful for his determination and genuine caring attitude. Alex is a special human and I can promise your life will be better for it if you choose to work with him. I would give him 10 stars if it was possible. Thank you Alex and the Zenith team!

Great recovery and strength training combo

I had a recovery session with Jesse, and it was awesome! He was professional, knowledgeable, and kind, and my legs and back appreciated the reset. I definitely plan to book a recovery session after every race. And it would be a great gift for other runners in my life! UPDATE: I have been taking their group strength training classes too! They are awesome! Such a great workout!!!

I came with pain—but now I feel stronger

I came with some pain, but also a desire to improve my conditioning so I would be less likely to injure myself in the same way again. It worked. I really appreciated having some standing appointments in place so when discomforts came up, they could be addressed promptly instead of waiting until the problem got worse. I feel so grateful.
