My name is Jenna. I co-founded Hoosier Athletic Club/Hoosier CrossFit where I coached functional strength & conditioning from 2009-2021. I currently reside in Whitefish, Montana and the Owner of Last Best Strength & Conditioning since 2023.
When I retired from HCF, I dabbled with some fun odd jobs and enjoyed my life Under th Big Sky. During this time, I dropped in to multiple strength & conditioning gyms to find a community that made me feel included, safe, and not judged - the core values that were my life's work at HCF. I chose to come out of retirement to lean in to my life's passion to create the last, best, strength & conditioning studio, thus Last Best Strength & Conditioning.
I graduated from college 30lbs heavier than when I started. In this picture, I had lost all that weight with just 6 months of functional strength & conditioning and following The Zone diet - it's the first time I did pullups in a workout, and also the first CrossFit Level 1 I attended back in 2009.
Over a decade ago, I became certified to teach the Clean & Jerk and Snatch in York, PA, home of York Barbell. Since then, I've renewed multiple times & continued learning various syles and training methods with Chad Vaughn, Glen Pendlay, Mike Burgener & Sage Burgener.

When, writer, Douglas Chadwick came to Montana for the first time many years ago, he boasted it as the "last best place." I can imagine what he felt, as I've nearly followed in the same footsteps. Since settling in a new place and re-introducing myself to the fitness world, your many options can feel overwhelming, and trying new programs and new trainings
You're going to want the last, best place,
Last Best Strength and Conditioning.
