STEWART: I'm the owner of Flex Up Fitness, which is a personal training company. We occupy two locations, which are at Olympus Athletic Club and our headquarters at 1313 Madison St.

T-G: What exactly does a personal trainer do? I think people who don't use one have a vague idea, but may not know all involved.

STEWART: Personal trainers are responsible for the mental, physical and emotional well being of their clients. We instruct others in workout regiments designed to lose weight, build muscle, and maintain a healthy state. Motivation and mental state are huge as well which means you end up being a life coach more times than just a walking workout.

T-G: Tell me about meal prep.

STEWART: The biggest problem with losing weight is crash dieting, lack of time, and honestly healthy food is expensive. We've found a way to prep and deliver an entire meal plan that's easy and comparable to a week's worth of groceries!

T-G: Anything else we need to know about your work or career?

STEWART: I've been in the athletic field since age 5. I tore my knee (ACL, meniscus and popliteus tendon) in college and began working at a gym to recondition myself for football. While there I was talked into a bodybuilding/physique show and won overall champion in my first show. I've been on stage 13 times with 10 placements of top 3 or better. At the end of 2013 I moved to Atlanta in which I studied various training methods/diets. Late 2015 I moved back to Shelbyville and started my training company! Since then I've obtained my Pro Card in powerlifting and established a group of trainers dedicated to helping others accomplish their goals whether it be athletes, bodybuilders, aging clients looking for maintenance and/or powerlifters!

T-G: How old are you?

STEWART: 23.

T-G: Who are your family members?

STEWART: Chantel Stewart (mother), Kailey Stewart (wife), Lilah and Phoenix Stewart (daughter and son), and Susie Stewart (grandmother).

T-G: What are a couple of tips for people to improve their fitness, such as if they are not doing much right now?

STEWART: Consistency of activity is key. You don't have to workout for 2 hours everyday. Get your body in a routine. 20 minutes every day or 30 every other of something slightly strenuous that you enjoy will make a huge difference!!

T-G: What are some of your hobbies?

STEWART: Music is my release. If I don't have my headphones on or music blaring I'm with my family eating something or somewhere. My job is my hobby. Outside of training others and family time you will find me in a gym.

T-G: Do you have a favorite motto?

STEWART: "Easy money." Perception is everything. If you view your obstacle as ridiculously hard it will be. Shrink it mentally and make it happen!

T-G: Do you have a bucket list item?

STEWART: I'm a huge fan of Greek mythology, gladiators, and the Roman Empire. I would love to travel to the Rome/Greece area to see the historical remains of their ancient culture!
