Hi, my name is Nicole Smith. I am a fitness enthusiast and certified personal trainer with experience as a spin and group fitness instructor. I also hold CPR and WSI certifications. I have been involved in sports for most of my life, including track and soccer in high school, and I currently play for the ODU Women\u2019s Club Soccer team. My training includes weightlifting, CrossFit, and running. I consider myself a well-rounded hybrid athlete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sports and fitness are more than physical training for me\u2014they provide structure, discipline, and a positive outlet from everyday stress. Through consistent training and recovery, I focus on progressing both mentally and physically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professionally, I aspire to own a gym with my own spin studio and to work as a fitness ambassador, sharing my passion for health and performance with others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
