Meet Steve,

Hi! I’m Steve, and I know what it’s like to feel out of place in a gym.

Your

Gym

Best

Friend!

For years, I struggled with weight, self-doubt, and a culture that didn’t feel welcoming.

After losing 100+ pounds and becoming a certified personal trainer and nutritionist, I made it my mission to build the supportive, inclusive fitness community I wish I had from the start.

At GBF Fitness, I specialize in helping people who:

  • Feel anxious, shy, or out of place in traditional gyms

  • Are queer or neurodivergent and want an affirming, safe fitness space

  • Want expert guidance without judgment

And finally, you’ll probably meet Remy — my four-legged assistant and morale coach.

As a certified emotional support dog, he’s often nearby during sessions, offering tail wags, quiet companionship, and the occasional reminder to breathe and smile.

For many clients, Remy becomes part of what makes this space feel safe, grounded, and a little less intimidating.
