JUAN VICENTE – CHISELED COLUMBUS OWNER / TRAINER
Juan founded Chiseled Gym in 2005 with one mission: to create a truly personalized training experience in an environment where clients feel challenged, supported, and inspired. With a background in the U.S. Army and decades of strength training under his belt, Juan blends structure with creativity to keep workouts fresh, intense, and results-driven.
Over the past 19 years, Juan has designed and delivered hundreds of customized training programs for a diverse range of clients across the Short North and greater Columbus area. Whether you’re training for your first 10K, aiming to hit a new PR, or just want to look and feel your best, Juan brings both expertise and energy to help you get there.
He has competed in physique contests, powerlifting meets, and most recently, the NPC Northern Natural Ohio, combining real-world competitive experience with a deep understanding of body mechanics, heart rate training, and long-term wellness. A Boston Marathon qualifier, he understands how to build endurance without sacrificing strength.
Outside the gym, Juan lives what he teaches. His interests include rock climbing, mountain biking, trail running, deep-sea fishing, fashion, and art. He also plays in a local recreational soccer league and is constantly pushing his physical limits—not just for himself, but to better serve his clients.
In addition to training, Juan has served as a mentor to both aspiring fitness professionals and younger clients, helping over 20 trainers build their foundation in business, elite customer service, and coaching. He’s equally passionate about guiding younger clients toward strength, discipline, and self-belief—lessons that extend beyond the gym and into every part of life.
Juan is passionate about addressing mobility, flexibility, and structural imbalances, encouraging clients to focus on long-term function, performance, and overall well-being. He constantly evolves—applying what he learns every day to improve his craft from both a coaching and customer service perspective.
To date, Chiseled Gym has helped over 1,000 clients transform their bodies and their lives. If you’re ready to do the work, Juan will meet you with knowledge, commitment, and unmatched enthusiasm.
