I am a Colorado native. In 2005, I had Bariatric Surgery. Having worked in various different jobs including working with horses, as a physical therapy aid and assisting trainers with personal/group training, my passion for helping others continued to get stronger.  I became a certified Bariatric Support Group Leader (Part of the Rose Hospital/Denver Bariatric Buddy Program), Personal Trainer, Group Fitness Trainer, Nordic Walking Instructor, and more.
 In May of 2017, I became the owner of Adventure Fitness Athletic Club, a great gym in Thornton, Colorado. I enjoy helping people with their individual journey to greater health and well being.

Chris Depiero

Personal Trainer
Born and raised in Colorado, I have always loved being outside doing anything I can to enjoy this beautiful state. My fitness adventure began at age 7 when I started karate, I have loved combat sports ever since then. I have studied multiple styles of martial arts throughout my life. I played football in high school and that is where I learned to love lifting weights. I would stay after school and spend hours in the weight room. Years later I started to focus more on lifting techniques and overall fitness as well as nutrition which led me to become a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach not only to help myself but also others be the best versions of themselves possible.
