“BeWell Fitness is my life’s passion. It is a house built on intestinal
fortitude, character and spirit. This dream was transformed from an idea to
a vision and ultimately into reality. It is my ultimate success and pleasure
to help you achieve your dreams”.

-Ben Wellenbach, Founder and President, BeWell Fitness L.L.C.

BeWell Fitness was founded by Ben Wellenbach. Ben’s experience stems from a wealth of knowledge from the top fitness professionals in the industry. Ben’s mentor and first strength coach was Michael Boyle (www.michaelboyle.biz). Mike taught him the fundamentals and methodology through his professional, Olympic, and collegiate athletes and all of Ben’s current programs are derived from his teachings. He then trained under Todd Champlin, a physical therapist, rehabilitating athletes from injuries. From private sessions with Juan Carlos Santana (www.ihpfit.com), Ben learned the importance of proper exercise progression and various training methods that ranged from sport specific to asymptomatic clients. Most recently, he has studied under Gray Cook and Lee Burton, Co- Founders of the F.M.S. (Functional Movement Screen) (www.functionalmovement.com), learning to better screen people for deficiencies and weak areas of movement.  This will allow for the opportunity to design specific programs that prevent injury and improve performance.

Ben is A.C.E. (American Council on Exercise), F.M.S.S. Functional Movement Screen Specialist, CPR and First Aid Certified. He was also elected Trainer of the Year, XSport Fitness Libertyville (2006) by the Fitness and General Manager.

Ben held varsity letters in four sports (Football, Soccer, Hockey and Lacrosse) at Lawrence Academy. He then played varsity hockey at Lake Forest College (NCHA).
