About

I’m Chandon Thomas, a Middleton, Wisconsin native. I spent 18 years in Middleton then went to play college basketball in Milwaukee before transferring to Western Carolina to finish my degree in 2023. After school, I chased my passion for coaching and spent two years training clients in Dallas, Texas, helping people unlock their potential in fitness and beyond. Now, I’m returning home to Middleton to be closer to friends and family while continuing my own fitness journey.

Q & A

Q: Why did you become a personal trainer?

A: I wanted to become a trainer because I’m passionate about coaching and guiding others to unlock their full potential. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing people grow, overcome challenges, and become the best versions of themselves with my support.

Q: What has been one of your favorite client experiences?

A: One of my favorite client experiences isn’t tied to a single moment, but rather the ongoing joy of seeing relationships grow over time. I’ve worked with so many incredible people, and what stands out is how those connections evolve into something lasting.

Q: What is your proudest physical achievement?

A: My proudest physical achievement so far has to be playing college basketball. Pushing myself through grueling practices, staying disciplined, and competing at that level taught me what my body and mind are capable of, it’s something I’ll always carry with me.

Q: Why do you love Orange Shoe?

A: I love Orange Shoe because their vision aligns so closely with what I value, helping people get better in any aspect of their fitness goals. Whether it’s strength, endurance, or just feeling more confident, they’re all about meeting you where you are and pushing you forward. That focus on personal growth, no matter the starting point, is what’s important to me.
