Johann Gylfason

Wake Forest - Grove 98

Born in Reykjavík, Iceland, I moved to the Wake Forest area nearly a decade ago, driven by my passion for fitness and a degree in exercise physiology from East Carolina University. My coaching style focuses on classical strength training, particularly barbell techniques, and I pride myself on being approachable despite my intimidating appearance—I'm really just a big teddy bear at heart! I specialize in helping everyday individuals enhance their lives through effective, personalized fitness strategies.
