Meet Coach Hakiem, a passionate and high-energy Personal Trainer at HiTone Fitness in Concord, who has made it his mission to change lives through health, wellness, and movement. “Saving people’s lives through fitness is my passion,” he says. For Hakiem, fitness is more than a career. It is a calling rooted in his desire to help others discover their strength and unlock their full potential. What Hakiem loves most about his work is witnessing transformation in every form. “I love seeing results, watching people’s lives change, and seeing real growth in my clients,” he shares. Every success story reminds him why he does what he does, fueling his motivation to keep inspiring others. Fitness has always been a cornerstone of Hakiem’s life, serving as both his outlet and safe space. Growing up without siblings, the gym became his community and second home. “It gave me a circle of people who believed in me, pushed me, and saw something special in me,” he says. What began as a way to stay active evolved into a lifelong journey of purpose and passion that shaped his confidence, character, and career. When it comes to helping members achieve results, Hakiem focuses on building confidence through small, consistent wins. “I start by introducing different movements to keep training engaging, not like a job,” he explains. “I emphasize proper nutrition, mindset, and accountability. The goal is to motivate each person step by step and help them create habits that last.” Through his infectious energy, supportive coaching style, and passion for people, Coach Hakiem creates an environment at HiTone Fitness where every member feels inspired, confident, and excited to become the best version of themselves.
