Meet Brian Stanek — Owner & Head Coach at Freedom Fitness CU

What started 25 years ago with a barbell in a high school weight room has turned into a lifelong pursuit—and a career spanning over 15 years. Brian Stanek is a Strength & Conditioning Coach, Certified Personal Trainer, NPC Coach, Bodybuilding Specialist, Nutritionist, and Powerlifting Instructor/Judge who’s dedicated his life to helping others grow stronger—physically and mentally.

As the founder of Freedom Fitness CU, Brian has built more than a gym—it’s a training ground for the relentless, a place where hard work speaks louder than hype, and where strength is earned, not given.

Brian trains everyone from beginners to seasoned lifters, and from everyday individuals to competitive athletes. Whether you want to build muscle, gain strength, prepare for the stage or platform, or simply become your best self—Brian’s tailored, results-driven coaching will get you there.

With a deep foundation in training, nutrition, and real-world experience, he doesn’t just coach—he leads by example. And as an NPC Coach and Powerlifting Judge, he brings a competitive edge and a high standard to everything he does.
