When asked what fitness trainers inspire them the most, our staff and fans sent in a number of notable men and women. But when we started seeing a particular name keep popping up–Steven Beck–we knew we had to find out more. The handsome father has been modeling for years and helped train some notable celebrities in the process. On his social media, Steven shares a mix of scriptures, inspirational messages and fitness tips to keep his followers going.
Born in Phoenix, Arizona, Steven Beck developed an early passion for the fitness and entertainment industries. By the time Steven was a teenager, he was already making a name for himself in his hometown as an athlete and singer. Even though he was the captain of his high school football team, being on stage was Steven’s first love. He would frequesnt the stage as a singer at county fairs and talent shows. By 2008, the unsigned 17 years old, talented singer was opening for acts such as H-Town and Sean Kingston.
“I didn’t always look exactly like this,” admits Steven. “I’ve always been in shape but it wasn’t until I took my fitness and made it a whole lifestyle. I tell my clients and my peers it’s a lifestyle change, you have to be mentally ready and physically ready cause it’s not going to happen overnight. And as much as I’m a teacher, I’m a student. I’m always interested in finding new ways to look a certain way or to build my body…”
In 2009, Steven enrolled at Arizona State University to study business, but he left during his sophomore year to pursue a music career. He then relocated to Atlanta, Georgia in 2010.
