Bailey Miller
Personal Trainer, USAW
My name is Coach Bailey Miller I’m originally from Hampton Iowa but I currently live in Clear Lake with my fiancé. I graduated from Hampton High School in the class of 2016. I did not attend college after high school as I did not know what I wanted to do with my life yet. Throughout school I was a 4 sport athlete and started varsity as an 8th grader in baseball. I have been to multiple baseball and wrestling camps throughout my life where I learned and gathered information on how to change the game as a coach. I’m still an active baseball player with a team out of Spencer, Iowa. At the beginning of 2020, I started training with Jason Laube at Cutting Edge Fitness. Being in that atmosphere, I became very driven in wanting to change the lives of athletes and other people who want to take the step in changing their lives. In August of 2021, I went to University Dubuque and got my USAW certification. I’ve been personal training at CEF for about a year now. In my time here, I’ve trained 2 State qualifying track athletes and have also helped trained a D1 basketball player that committed to the University of Milwaukee. On top of those athletes, I’ve also helped train a 2x State golf champ. Not only do I train athletes, but I also help out with the general population. Examples are people with back, knee, shoulder, and neck issues, and other people who want to become a healthier self. If you’re looking to better yourself in anyway I’m here for you!
