Ah. Dry January. That time of year when America, gripped by a collective bout of self-improvement, vows to conquer its inner sloth with ambitious health and fitness New Year’s resolutions complete with everything from new gym memberships to kale smoothies. Yet, for many, as the weeks unfold, the initial fervor cools faster than a forgotten cup of coffee. The allure of the elliptical wanes, replaced by every excuse in the book to continue that sweet familiar siren song with the sofa.
And that’s where Coach Kwon comes in.
Coach Kwon is a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach and a long-time downtown LA resident with accreditations from the National Academy of Sports Medicine in Personal Training and Nutrition.
Technically, Coach Kwon possesses the expertise to guide clients in strength and conditioning, help them make better nutritional choices, and assist them in achieving their weight loss goals. Yet, there’s something very special about Coach Kwon that sets him apart from your typical personal trainer….
Like a body whisperer, Coach Kwon is not there to force his clients onto fitness machines, standing over them like a drill sergeant as they pound away at body fat to the point of exhaustion.
Nor does a session with Coach Kwon feel like a competition at all. Instead, Kwon exudes a calming presence, attentive to each client’s individual pace.
Coach Kwon guides his clients with gentle suggestions and a tone of genuine care. Demonstrating each movement first and patiently observing to ensure proper form, he celebrates each milestone and builds trust through tangible results.

Instead of dreading the next session, working out with Coach Kwon doesn’t feel like a chore; it’s an empowering experience that leaves his clients feeling invigorated and accomplished.
Focus, functional strength, mobility, and sustainable habits are key aspects of his approach. Making sure every workout has a purpose, Coach Kwon ensures his clients achieve their fitness goals. On top of that, as a certified nutrition coach, his work benefits the community by helping downtowners take control of their health in a way that fits their busy lives.
As both a coach and trainer, Coach Kwon has gained a deep understanding of athletic performance and how to develop individuals both physically and mentally.
“I help clients build healthier relationships with food, fueling their bodies for performance, fat loss, and overall well-being. Whether you’re an athlete or someone looking to get stronger and lose weight, I take a well-rounded approach that combines training and nutrition to create lasting results.”

Coach Kwon’s personal health journey started as a high school basketball coach in New York City, where he quickly realized the importance of proper training when helping his young athletes perform at their best.
In 2016, Kwon moved to Los Angeles and expanded his focus beyond athletes, specializing in building sustainable fitness habits that empower adults to become the strongest versions of themselves—both in and out of the gym.
“Many working adults struggle with finding the time, motivation, or right approach to fitness and nutrition. I simplify the process, providing personalized training and nutrition guidance that helps them build sustainable habits—not just quick fixes.”
Living in a luxury high-rise or working out at a private gym? It’s very possible you’ll run into Kwon. Kwon focuses on making fitness accessible and sets appointments where he can meet his clients anywhere at any time.
Beyond just training, he’s committed to creating a supportive community where people feel encouraged, not judged.
Whether it’s through one-on-one coaching or online resources, Kwon is here to help people make lasting changes by improving their physical health, gaining more energy, reducing stress, and building the discipline that carries over into every aspect of life.
Taking control of your health isn’t just about looking better—it’s about feeling stronger, more confident, and showing up as the best version of yourself every day. The hardest part is starting. After one session with Coach Kwon, we promise you won’t want to stop. www.coachkwontraining.com
