If you are a follower of the H3 Daily blog or have visited us here in Hilton Head, you are sure to have come across our newest Fitness Specialist and H3 addition, Jeff Ford. Read more to learn more about how he ended up at H3 and all of the exciting things up his sleeve for the future.
Growing up in Byfield, Massachusetts, a small town outside Boston, Jeff wanted to experience college in a new and different environment. That was his motivation for moving to South Carolina where he attended Clemson University. It was at Clemson that Jeff first learned of Hilton Head Health (H3) through the H3 Intern Program. Upon graduating in May with a B.S. degree in Marketing and a minor in Health Science, Jeff was offered a full-time position as Fitness Specialist. He is a Certified Personal Trainer through ACSM and is in the process of being certified as a Wellness Coach. As the newest addition to the H3 Fitness Team, Jeff is responsible for facilitating Health Habit Review sessions and personal training sessions, as well as fitness classes and lectures. He is also currently working on developing an Alumni Network Program to assist Guests on their continued journey once they return home.
Jeff’s inspiration comes from every Guest he meets at H3. He finds that there’s nothing better than when an individual begins to believe in himself/herself. “I love taking people to a place where they didn’t think they could go and helping them accomplish things they never thought possible.” Whether it’s during a one-on-one Health Habit Review session, fitness class or personal training session, Jeff enjoys challenging our Guests to their limits and helping them achieve their goals. If he could give one piece of advice to all Guests who walk through our doors, it would be to “set new goals and don’t stop until you reach them—AND ALWAYS remain positive.”
When he’s not at H3 helping Guests with their healthy journey, you can find Jeff at Crossfit class (a type of group personal training), training for endurance events like marathons and half-marathons, running local races, or spending time with friends and watching movies.
Connect with Jeff on our H3 Facebook page or watch his Friday Fitness video's on the H3 YouTube channel.
