Lindsay Martens

Lindsay Martens brings a deeply personal and athlete-first approach to coaching. As a competitive athlete herself, Lindsay understands what it takes to prepare both physically and mentally for the stage — and she brings that lived experience to every client she works with.

Alongside Amer, Lindsay co-coaches all Hammer Fitness athletes in resistance training, ensuring every need is met, every standard is upheld, and every athlete is brought to their peak in perfect condition. Her expertise and dedication are a cornerstone of what makes the Hammer Fitness coaching experience unlike anything else.
