Joe Nelson

In addition to ownership of CrossFit Six Points, Joe is a Physical Therapist and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist who owns the physical therapy practice inside of our gym! He has had a love for strength training since studying exercise science at Carroll University and has been working with fitness athletes since starting his career in Chicago in 2021. Prior to this, he worked as a personal trainer throughout college and graduate school. He prioritizes the principles of strength training and fitness in his professional life as a PT and this carries over into his coaching style as well.

His favorite thing about being a coach and owner is watching individual members make consistent progress over time. Whether it's a PR or even just a small improvement in technique, these are the things that compound to make huge changes over time and that is so exciting to watch.
