​

I’m not just a trainer — I understand the journey firsthand.

​

After losing over 130 pounds myself, I made it my mission to help others transform their lives in a sustainable, realistic way. I know what it feels like to start from scratch. I know the frustration. The setbacks. The doubt. And I also know what it takes to push through and win.

​

That experience drives everything I do at Make A Step Fitness Online Training.

Why Online Training Works

As a Virtual Coaching Specialist, I’ve designed my online system to deliver real accountability and real results — no matter where you train.

​

Whether you’re working out in your living room, garage, or home gym, I guide you step-by-step through structured programming that fits your schedule and removes the guesswork.

​

No crowded gyms.
No random workouts.
No excuses.

Just a clear plan and consistent progress.

​

My Promise to You

You won’t get a cookie-cutter program.

You’ll get:
✔ Personalized training
✔ Education behind every movement
✔ Sustainable nutrition guidance
✔ Accountability between sessions
✔ Support through every plateau

​

Because transformation isn’t about quick fixes — it’s about building habits that last.

​

And it starts with one step.

About Make A Step Fitness

Founder Chris McKenzie has lived it.

After losing over 130 pounds himself, Chris knows firsthand the discipline, consistency, setbacks, and mindset shifts required to create real, lasting change. His transformation wasn’t built on shortcuts — it was built on structure, education, and commitment.

My Motto

“I would rather visit the produce section of the grocery store than the pharmacy section.”

This philosophy drives everything we do.

Prevention over prescription.
Education over guesswork.
Habits over hype.

Because true transformation isn’t about temporary fixes — it’s about building a lifestyle that supports your health for years to come.
