🎧 Episode 4: From Performance to Presence — with Sean Cole
In this episode of Freedom Through Fitness, we’re joined by fitness industry veteran and business owner Sean Cole — founder of Elevation Training Club (formerly SC Vital Fitness) and Balance Wellness Club, two standout facilities helping people live healthier, more grounded lives.
Sean’s journey spans decades of experience: from his time in the military as a Physical Training Instructor and Exercise Rehabilitation Specialist, to running a high-performance gym, to more recently embracing a more holistic, authentic approach to movement, mindset, and recovery.
Together, we explore:
How Sean went from performance-focused coaching to truly serving his community
The power of authenticity and why “people don’t care what you’ve done — they care what you can do for them”
How cold water therapy, breathwork, and contrast therapy changed his life — and sparked the creation of Balance Wellness Club
What it means to coach for the real world, not just the gym floor
Why finding your version of balance is the key to long-term wellbeing
🧠Whether you’re a coach, a gym-goer, or someone seeking deeper alignment in your fitness journey — Sean’s honesty, experience, and transformation will strike a chord.
📍Recorded before the recent rebrand of his gym, you’ll hear Sean refer to it as SC Vital Fitness. It has since re-launched as Elevation Training Club.
