About Stronger Together Fitness
The story of Tony and Shannon Phillips, Stronger Together Fitness, and the community that grew from it.
Why We Exist
Our Story
What began as a dream for our family became a gym built on faith, trusted coaching, and a community that shows up for one another.
Our Aims
Built around personal connection, quality movement, trusted instruction, and a caring community.
Christ at the Center
We are passionate about keeping Christ, family, health and fitness at the center of all we do, and we cannot wait to see who and what the future brings to Stronger Together Fitness through CrossFit Maumelle and our other programs.
“Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow.”
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10
Our Story
Built through prayer, coaching, and daily consistency.
As a couple, we have more than 15 years of CrossFit experience, 12 years of coaching, and over 30 years of teaching and managing people. Fourteen years ago we started our pursuit of health and fitness and saw firsthand how it transforms lives. After four years of being CrossFit athletes and furthering our knowledge through training and educational courses, we were presented an opportunity of a lifetime: run a CrossFit affiliate.
This was something we had dreamed about as a couple, but we knew it was a big responsibility and wondered whether we were equipped for the job. After much prayer and counsel with trusted mentors, we felt confident this was the direction God was taking us. We needed to create a safe space, use our gifts well, love everyone who came into the gym, and trust God for the rest.
Since 2014 we have been able to purchase the gym, see the love of God shared with every person who has come through the doors, watch amazing relationships grow, see lives transformed from the inside out, build confidence, change bodies, meet fitness goals, and help people make health and wellness a priority again. What a privilege to witness that kind of change. We hope it includes you.
Our Heart
Christ, family, health, and fitness in the right order.
To foster personal connection, quality movement, trusted instruction, and a caring community while keeping Christ, family, health, and fitness at the center of all we do.
