Eric Urbany

Hi, I’m Eric Urbany, founder of Ever Forward Fitness! Growing up as an athlete, I was no stranger to gyms and training, but I often felt frustrated by the one-size-fits-all approach used in team sports. After high school, when the structured workouts ended, I found myself lost in the gym, unsure of how to train effectively on my own. Without a clear plan, my progress stalled, and eventually, I stopped going altogether.

Over time, I became uncomfortable in my own skin and knew I needed to make a change. When I returned to the gym, this time with a plan and a drive to educate myself, everything clicked. What started as a journey to build confidence turned into a lifelong passion that transformed not only my body but also my mindset, health, and understanding of human potential. I realized that fitness isn’t just about appearance—it’s about feeling strong, capable, and in control of your own life. Transitioning from training as an athlete to bodybuilding, I discovered the power of discipline, dedication, and personal growth.

Now, through Ever Forward Fitness, my mission is to help others experience that same transformation. I believe in personalized training that empowers individuals to push limits, build confidence, and achieve more than they thought possible. As my business grows, I’m committed to creating a supportive community where every client feels challenged, motivated, and unstoppable. This is just the beginning, and I’m excited to help you move forward on your own journey!

“I started working with Corey a little over a year ago, I had made multiple attempts in my life to start a regular workout routine, and thanks to Corey I have really stuck with it. The progress I have made so far is undeniable! I am thankful I have been able to work with Corey and I’m excited to continue!”
