Spencer Troutman

Spencer Troutman was born and raised in Long Beach, CA, growing up playing baseball and eventually playing rugby for Azusa Pacific. His love of weightlifting, learned through training at Azusa Pacific, drew him to SoCal Weightlifting in 2014 at our very first location in Long Beach. He was one of Chris’ earliest athletes, competing as a 94 and 89kg athlete.

Spencer is now our Director of Weightlifting, working with Chris to develop not only high performance athletes, but recreational athletes that are training to have fun and stay healthy and strong. Spencer loves the educational side of weightlifting and looks forward to offering more online resources for weightlifters in the future.

Spencer has his CSCS, USAW Level 1 and USAW Level 2. He assists Chris at USAW Level 1 courses as the assistant instructor.
