\Kyle\

Kyle Kinley joined the Kinetik Fitness team in 2017.

Kyle is a certified personal trainer through Ben Greenfield’s Superman program and through the American Council on Exercise (ACE). While being relatively new in the health and fitness industry, his passion for learning and teaching anything related to improving health makes him an old pro.

After finishing his associate’s degree in architectural drafting and design, Kyle decided to travel the world. He first discovered his passion for health, fitness, and longevity on a 2015 trip to Phuket, Thailand. During this trip, he trained in the martial art of Muay Thai at the Tiger Muay Thai camp for three months. Upon returning home, he decided to share his passion and earn his certification. Everyone at Kinetik is thrilled that he did!

Kyle was born and raised in Bellefonte and has always enjoyed being physically active. When not training at the gym, he enjoys outdoor competitions such as Tough Mudders and Spartan races.

Kyle currently teaches our kettlebell classes on Saturdays.

\Willie\

Sports have always been at the center of my life, starting with football and wrestling in high school, where I learned the importance of discipline, work ethic, and resilience. That passion carried me to the University of Pittsburgh, where I earned my degree in Exercise Science. While at Pitt, I had the opportunity to intern with the Pitt Football program, gaining valuable hands-on experience in strength and conditioning at the collegiate level.

After graduating, I began my career as a Performance Coach at Healthy Baller in Maryland, where I worked with athletes of all levels to develop speed, strength, and performance. Today, I continue that mission as a Performance Coach at Kinetik Fitness, helping athletes unlock their full potential and prepare for success both in competition and in life.

\Isabelle\

Isabelle Holland-Lulewicz, a certified personal trainer, joined the Kinetik Fitness team in 2025 after being a member for almost two years.

Isabelle spent her childhood growing up on a horse farm, occasionally finding the time to play soccer, tennis, rugby, and run cross-country. She grew up in Athens, Georgia and attended the University of Georgia for her undergraduate and PhD until a Faculty position at Penn State brought her to State College.

During her early 20s she worked as a personal trainer and group boxing/kickboxing class instructor but took time off to focus on her education. She has always valued finding challenging ways to be active that she enjoys, which she now enthusiastically brings to her coaching style. You can find her in the gym in the early mornings and late afternoons enjoying helping our members get in a solid workout.

Outside of the gym, she enjoys spending time her partner Jake and their 3 dogs and 1 cat. She also enjoys Type II fun outdoors (mostly running, lots of running) as she trains for her ultramarathons and sharing good meals with good friends.
