As a former high school and collegiate athlete, Chris has always had a passion for fitness. After playing college football at Cornell University, he decided to pursue a career as a personal trainer. He acquired certifications with the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM) and continues to learn from the greatest minds in fitness, making him one of the best and brightest in the field of performance coaching. He has worked with athletes at all different levels and sports, specializing in speed, power, strength, injury prevention, functional training, and rehabilitation.

Some of his notable clients include Lorenzo Alexander, Ryan Kerrigan, Oguchi Onyewu, Ali Krieger, Ashlyn Harris, Bill Hamid and Brandon Guyer. Chris is committed to demonstrating his expertise and delivering his vast knowledge to his clients to bring out the best in them.

Craig Hoffman’s career in fitness was born out of necessity. He was out of a job and out of money. He’d moved to Washington, DC in the summer of 2015 to cover the Washington’s NFL team, only to see his radio station restructure and eliminate his position. 

Running low on funds, his mother suggested following another passion - fitness.  One conversation with the fitness director of his local gym later, he was on his way to a second career that would change his life.

He trained clients of all kinds as an Explosive Performance Coach and elite trainer at OneLife Fitness in Reston, VA before moving to his current full-time training home at The PHYT Collective in Washington, DC. Craig also collaborates with Gorres at Onyx’s Winter Performance camp and other special projects.

Hoffman continued and now hosts “The Hoffman Show” daily on The Team 980 for Audacy in DC. He’s also worked for ESPN Radio in Dallas and the Washington Spirit.
