Welcome to Blue Marble Fitness. My name is Brett Ball and I am a certified personal trainer.

I provide in person training as well as online coaching to those in all walks of their fitness journey. My goal is to help others develop a plan for change, and execute those critical lifestyle changes that bring real, lasting results. I provide attentive services, whether it be in-person training, online coaching, or nutrition plans. All of my programs are guaranteed to be centered around your personal goals, ensuring consistent progress, all while educating you along the way. I believe fitness is all about healthy habits and should be attainable, as well as affordable.

I was born and raised here in Oregon, which is where I founded Blue Marble Fitness.

This has been one of the most rewarding accomplishments in my life thus far, as I get to help improve the lives of those around me on a daily basis. I have utilized my education in Kinesiology, Sociology, Public Health, as well as my hands on knowledge within the weight room and the kitchen, to help develop a company that is dedicated to listening to clients. I am very thankful I get to work in a field that I am passionate about myself, and I know I’m lucky to love what I do.

My fitness journey began when I was about 5 years old and my father placed a basketball in my hands. From that moment on, my life revolved around sports, especially basketball. My dad, being an ex-pro basketball player, taught me the ropes of the game and all the hard work that came with it. Though I have always loved basketball, my passion for weightlifting began as I found a sport that challenges me individually and constantly encourages personal growth, both mentally and physically. 4 years ago, I decided to slowly step away from collegiate athletics and start my own fitness journey. That journey still continues as you read this.

On the rare occasion that I’m not in the gym training clients or working on myself, you’ll find me working on home projects, maintaining and updating my fitness education or just hanging out with good friends and family. I live a simple life full of the things I love; my family, friends, fitness, and laughter.

I was born in Oregon and currently reside in The Portland area. Right after graduating high school in 2010, I enlisted in the Marine Corps and shipped off to boot camp. That is what launched my fitness journey. For my first 4 years on active duty I focused on becoming the best Marine that I could so I could get promoted. A large portion of earning the next rank includes our physical fitness which I always excelled at, that part came easy to me and still does.

My journey to the stage and competing began in 2014 when I got out of active duty and moved back home. I started prepping for my first bikini competition and became very serious with the weights and my nutrition.  After winning my first show – I was hooked! I continued to compete in the same show for 5 years in a row, I was determined to win the overall. On the 5th year I achieved that goal. I then moved on two weeks later to my first national show where I placed 4th out of 300 bikini competitors. Two weeks after that, I won my pro card at Universe in NJ. I went on and competed in 5 pro shows placing top 10 at all of them and earning points towards the Olympia. My success thus far on stage is due to patience and consistency. I have always been passionate about bringing my very best and improved physique each time I step on that stage. That is what I am currently doing now, I will be switching divisions from bikini to figure. For those that don’t compete, that just means that I am taking the time to build more lean muscle, allowing me to move up to a bigger female division. Coach Brett is currently coaching me through my workouts and training regimen while I make this transition.While I grew my passion for the stage – I also developed the passion for coaching and helping others in their own fitness journey. Fitness has changed my life and I thrive off of watching it change others lives as well. Blue Marble Fitness is here to coach individuals through health & fitness while showing them a healthier lifestyle. I focus heavily on nutrition and posing for clients and have minimal spots available for in-person clients.
