Meet Paul Yost of Paramount Fitness Training in Gulfton and Bellaire

Local Stories

Today we’d like to introduce you to Paul Yost.

Paul, can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today.
I participated in college athletics. While doing so, and bouncing around from major to major, I discovered strength and conditioning as a potential career opportunity. After speaking with my Advisor and a few Strength Coaches, it was determined it would be best for me to continue further with school. That eventually led to my enrollment at Texas A&M University to get an advanced degree. While there, I came across my first job in fitness as a Personal Trainer at Gold’s Gym. Following college, I left Gold’s to work for the Cincinnati Reds as a Strength and Conditioning Coach. After going back and forth between jobs in strength and conditioning and personal training, I made the decision to stay put in Houston and build my own business.

Has it been a smooth road?
Speaking for myself, a career in fitness hasn’t been easy. Maybe that’s just me though.

So, as you know, we’re impressed with Paramount Fitness Training – tell our readers more, for example what you’re most proud of as a company and what sets you apart from others.
I operate my business out of Hank’s Gym. I work with regular people and athletes that may come along. Generally speaking, I train people as much like athletes as I can in a small group or one-on-one setting. I think most people will get more out of their time by training in that fashion to improve fitness and performance.

Let’s touch on your thoughts about our city – what do you like the most and least?
I don’t get out much, but I like that there’s so much to do. I came from a small town in Iowa and never thought I’d like big city living. Apparently, I was wrong. What I like least is probably the heat, as most people here would say. It’s still better, in my opinion, than the extreme cold I used to experience.
