Owner and Trainer

"You can have anything you want in life if you are willing to give up the belief that you can't have it.”

Starting at a very young age Chris became involved in just about any sport he could get his hands on including soccer, lacrosse, tennis, football, racquet ball and many more. This athleticism would eventually turn into his lifestyle and career as he became a certified personal trainer. His passion for fitness and training led him to found Body By Boris in 2009.

Boris is one of the most likable people you will ever meet, yet finds the perfect balance between offering a friendly personality and pushing you past your limits. He prides himself on helping clients unleash their potential and achieve things they never thought possible.

“The body is tuned to be a very strong instrument, but the mind is always stronger. Very few people ever discover the amazing things they are capable of. It is my goal to help others make that discovery.” He leads by example by actively competing in 5ks, adventure races, marathons, triathlons, and even as an Ironman.
