​

My name is Christopher Houston, and I’m the founder of I Am Fitness — a space I created to help others become their strongest, most disciplined, and confident selves, just like I had to do myself. I grew up hungry for more. More opportunity, more growth, more purpose. Football became my first outlet. It gave me structure, built my toughness, and introduced me to a lifestyle rooted in discipline, consistency, and faith. I walked on at the University of Charlotte with no guarantees,  just heart, hustle, and belief in what God placed in me. That mindset paid off. After entering the transfer portal, I received multiple full scholarship offers within just two weeks, ultimately landing at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, where I played wide receiver, running back, and return specialist. I made my mark by always staying ready, no matter the role or moment.

But my journey didn’t stop with football. Fitness became more than a routine — it became a lifestyle. It gave me clarity, focus, and confidence. I realized I could take what I learned through sports and use it to impact others — athletes, everyday people, and anyone chasing personal growth. Today, I’m a personal trainer, athlete, and mentor. I’ve trained with elite programs, studied the business side of performance, and built a strong brand through social media and in-person coaching. I hold a degree in Communications and am currently pursuing a master’s in Cybersecurity, because I believe in staying sharp in every area of life.

I Am Fitness isn’t just a brand,  it’s a declaration. It means showing up when no one’s watching. It means becoming more than your circumstances. And it means trusting God, trusting the process, and putting in the work every single day.

If you’re ready to level up mentally, physically, or spiritually, book your session and let’s build something powerful. Together.
