Owner of Chapters Fitness | Personal Transformation Coach
Welcome to Chapters Fitness – where your strength is your story.
I’m Cody McClung, owner of Chapters Fitness and personal trainer at Self Made Training Facility in Columbus. My fitness journey started at 300 lbs and 35–40% body fat. After losing 106 lbs and reaching 10–12% body fat, I know firsthand the challenges, decisions, and rewards that come with transformation. I’m here to guide you through your own.
What Sets Me Apart
I don’t just offer workouts—I offer real-world solutions grounded in personal experience. As a father, husband, and full-time professional engineer, I’ve learned to cut through the clutter of fitness trends and focus on what works.
My goal? Help you:
- Build muscle
- Boost confidence
- Create sustainable habits
- Transform both your body and mindset
At Chapters Fitness, training isn’t just about sets and reps. It’s about:
- Movement quality: Learn proper mechanics and functionality
- Weightlifting fundamentals: Understand form and purpose
- Mindset: Shift your beliefs and unlock your potential
My Approach
We tailor your program to your specific goals—whether you’re focused on:
- Fat loss
- Muscle gain
- General fitness
- Lifestyle improvement
And it’s not limited to gym time. I emphasize nutrition and lifestyle design that fits into your daily life—because lasting change happens when fitness works with your lifestyle, not against it.
A Community of Support
At Chapters Fitness and SMTF, we’ve built a supportive community rooted in self-investment and hard work. As your coach, I’m not just someone shouting cues—I’m your accountability partner, your strategist, and your guide.
