Your mindset is half the battle. We work on the psychology behind your habits, your identity, and the systems that keep you consistent, even when motivation runs out. As a fitness coach in Minnesota, our approach is designed to not only enhance your strength but also to get you feeling like an athlete again.

Our personalized approach, led by a strength coach in Minnesota, empowers you to perform, feel, and look like an athlete through systematic and dedicated training. We focus on lasting results, helping you not only look great but maintain your progress consistently over time.
ABOUT ME
Meet Garrett Conn | Performance Coach
Hey, I'm Garrett Conn founder of Conn Human Performance and your coach.
Since you're here, let me take a second to actually introduce myself.
I live in Champlin, Minnesota with my wife Sarah…who is, I'll be fully transparent, more athletic than me and beats me at almost everything. It's fine…I'm fine….We have two incredible kids, Jett and Odette, and our dog Crue who holds the household together.
We are die-hard Minnesota sports fans of every team, every season.
(We don't recommend it if you enjoy emotional stability.)
A couple of things you might not expect from your coach: I used to coach high school gymnastics. And I've competed in two 24-hour obstacle races, including one where I dislocated my shoulder mid-race. I finished anyway. That's just how I operate.
I still train clients in person, but over the past several years I've built Conn Human Performance to reach high-performing professionals all over the country, people who are serious about getting their athletic identity back.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
CHP is built for one specific person. A high-performing professional, business owner, or executive between 35 and 55 who used to move like an athlete. Maybe you played in college. Maybe high school. Maybe you were the recreational soccer guy or the weekend lifter who never quit until life got busy. Either way, your body once did things it doesn't do anymore, and you can feel the gap.
You've got a successful career, a full life, people who depend on you, and a body that no longer reflects who you are on the inside. You've tried programs before. You've fallen off before. You're not interested in a 12-week transformation. You want something that holds when life gets hard.
If that sounds like you, we're probably going to get along.
-
People are looking for the cheapest option. People hoping to get magically motivated by a coach. People who go quiet when things get hard instead of running toward the conversation. CHP is built around honest feedback and consistent execution. If you're looking for a fitness coach in Minnesota or a Health and Fitness Coach, Minnesota, who tells you what you want to hear, I'm the wrong guy. I'll tell you what you need to hear to move the needle.
-
Three things. We start with identity work before we ever write a workout, because if the person isn't clear, the program won't hold. We program in three dimensions because life happens in three dimensions, not just sagittal-plane gym work. And we build every program with a floor and a ceiling. The floor is what you can hit in your worst weeks. The ceiling is what you push to when life cooperates. Both count. Both compounds. That's how you stay in for years instead of bailing in week eight.
This is performance training, not random workouts.
-
Two ways to work together. Both were built to the same standard. Different formats for different lives.
ONLINE COACHING:
The 9-5 Athlete Program is built for the person whose schedule, travel, or location means a gym visit isn't realistic week to week. You get a personalized program designed around your equipment, your time, and what your body actually needs. We use a coaching app to deliver the program, track your work, and stay in regular communication. You'll know what to do, why you're doing it, and what's coming next.
IN-PERSON TRAINING:
In-person training in Champlin or St. Paul is built for the person who wants the energy of being in the room, direct coaching, real-time correction, and the accountability of an appointment on the calendar.
Same level of programming. Same coaching standard. Same outcome on the other side. The format is the only thing that changes.
-
Honest answer: You'll feel different in a few weeks. You'll move differently in a few months. You'll look different in a year. CHP isn't built around 30-day transformations. It's built around being capable, athletic, and ready for the next 30 years of your life. If you're working with a strength coach in Minnesota, results will show over time with consistent effort.
-
The problem isn't that you didn't want it more. It's that you got handed something that was never built for the life you're actually living.
Most fitness programs assume optimal conditions. Eight hours of sleep. Three free hours a week. No travel. No kids. No 9 pm calls. The 9-5 Athlete Program is built around the opposite, actual life, with a floor that holds when the week falls apart and a ceiling that's there when it doesn't. That's why people who used to fall off don't fall off here.
-
Almost everyone we work with has something. Old shoulder. Bad knee. A back that's been through it. Sixteen years of coaching means I've seen most of it, and we'll work around it, through it, or despite it, depending on what's there. Always check with your doctor before starting. Then come tell me what we're working with, and I'll build accordingly.
This is where experienced personal training matters most.
-
You book a strategy call. We talk. I ask honest questions. You ask honest questions. By the end of the call, we'll both know whether we're built to work together. If we're not, I'll tell you and point you somewhere better. If we are, we'll talk about what coming on board actually looks like.
That's it. No pressure. No pitch deck. Just a real conversation.
