Outside of sports, Spencer excelled in music as a member of the school pep band as well as a member of a rock band with a group of friends. While he hasn’t continued on his music path, he still enjoys playing guitar every once in a while. He also attended Berklee in Boston, MA for a summer semester in 2012 taking courses in Funk and Blues, Music Theory, and Electronic Production & Design.
Cooking is another hobby for Spencer Schneider that has turned into one of his greatest passions. When he was younger, he would always help his parents cook and has also gained experience working in restaurants over the past few years. After gaining this experience, he decided it would be great to combine his passion for cooking with his passion for volunteering and community work. He began volunteering with Second Harvest Food Bank to help families and children in need receive access to food and other valuable resources such as nutritional education and community kitchens.
Having made a difference with cooking, Schneider decided he could contribute to the community in other ways that related to his passions. As an avid skateboarder, he has found that skateboarding and the community surrounding it have made numerous positive impacts on his life. Through the skateboarding community he has found numerous charities and nonprofit organizations that serve to help kids and other individuals find their place in the world.
Professionally, Spencer Schneider has developed his own fitness facility and health and fitness program called Spencer Schneider Training. Within the facility, he has built customized training programs related to boxing, basketball, boot camp and other fitness routines as well as meal prep training programs to help individuals stay on track with their diets and health and fitness goals.
Before establishing a career a fitness trainer, Spencer Schneider was a gym regular. But every gym he ever worked out in seemed to follow the same tired format. Raised on sports, he decided to bring the world of athletics into his own fitness training plans. In Schneider’s view, working out doesn’t have to feel like work. Many of his clients are not fitness fanatics. Instead, they’re everyday people looking to make a positive change in their physical health. Weight lifting and using exercise machines aren’t exactly the highlight of their workouts. As a fitness trainer, Schneider enjoys developing programs that incorporate sports play into the routine. This unique edge has received fantastic reviews from both his athletically-inclined clients and individuals with weight loss goals. Athletes who are looking to improve upon specialized sports-based skills enjoy the extra practice. Other clients enjoy the added layer of fun and competition. Schneider has been told that sports-based workouts keep his clients entertained and focused. For some, the tactic makes their workout feel more like a game than a regimented fitness training routine.
The results his clients receive from his sports-based workouts prove that Spencer Schneider’s strategy is effective. Even though his clients may not feel like they’re putting in hard work, the routines have paid off tremendously in helping them to achieve their goals. The healthy balance of traditional and nontraditional workout activities helps to keep his clients in the zone. In addition to regular routines, Schneider often organizes scrimmage games with his clients. He uses these fun-fueled games as an opportunity to tie in his own favorite sports, such as:
-
- Hockey
-
- Basketball
-
- Baseball
- Skateboarding
That’s right: skateboarding. If there’s one thing Spencer Schneider has mastered, it’s the ability to flip the script. His angle of coupling sports and working out is only the tip of the iceberg.
