Cole Young 
Kinesiologist

Practicing Kinesiologist (BCAK)
B.Sc. Kinesiology Degree

Cole graduated from the University of the Fraser Valley in 2018 with a Bachelors degree in Kinesiology and an extended minor in Psychology. 

Cole took part in many sports, primarily baseball and hockey at competitive levels.  At the age of 17, Cole made Team BC for baseball, and represented at the national stage in Quebec. Cole suffered a significant back injury the following offseason which resulted in missing a year of competitive sport. Having made a full recovery, he still plays ice hockey in an adult league on a weekly basis. 

Through his injury rehabilitation experience, Cole fell in love with the process of rehabilitation, while also gaining first-hand experience at the entire rehabilitative process. Upon recovery, Cole wanted to learn more about how the muscles and tissues of the body interact and develop, which inspired him to study Kinesiology. While studying Kinesiology, he developed a passion for using his experiences to help others grow and develop beyond their own injuries through active rehabilitation.  

Utilizing a whole-body approach, Cole finds the muscular deficiencies which are functionally limiting, and works to strengthen and rebalance the body to create a stronger base, and a more functional body. Along with educating on form and posture, anatomical alignment, and mobilization training, this approach helps people feel more confident and comfortable. 

Cole enjoys working with anyone who is looking to improve themselves! Whether it is rehabilitative, athletic training, weight loss, or anywhere in between; Cole enjoys finding what drives someone, and helping them utilize that in their journey.

“I trained with Cole for 4 months, working to improve my overall strength with specific attention to my back. He designed a program suited to my goals and abilities. I was a bit nervous to get started because I have scoliosis and have had spinal fusion but Cole quickly put me as ease. He is knowledgeable, professional and very personable.  I learned so much working with him, especially about correct form. I would recommend Cole to anyone looking for a top notch Kinesiologist. The Kenaz gym is also well equipped, private and follows all COVID safety protocols.”
