Melissa Whitmer
Owner and Coach at Crush NTX Fitness

Born in Austin and raised in Wichita Falls. She attended the University of North Texas where she studied business and met her husband Jim. Her passion for health and fitness started after her youngest son was born in 2008.

She had put on a significant amount of weight during her pregnancy and struggled with high blood pressure. She made a pact with herself to lose weight so she could build strength, endurance, and confidence as a young mother of three. She knew it was necessary to keep up with her little ones and live her best life! With proper nutrition and a consistent exercise regimen, Melissa accomplished her goal and fell into a love affair with exercise.

This is where her passion for fitness flourished. She began teaching group fitness in 2009. She worked in Wellness for United Regional Healthcare System and is an American College of Exercise-certified personal trainer with a specialty in functional training. She teaches a wide range of fitness classes and still has an immense passion for helping people love fitness as much as she does.
