Sam Werbel
Owner and Head Coach at ActiveVT

Sam has been a lifelong endurance athlete, and an outdoor tour guide and CrossFit coach since 2016. He’s been in the gym-ownership game since 2017 and had over 5,000 coaching hours, including beginners, experienced athletes, seniors, kiddos, and everything in between.

Sam’s personal athletic ledger includes many years of competitive Nordic ski racing and rowing, over 30 marathons, numerous ultra marathons, and even a previous World Record for 100km on the Ski Erg. While an outdoor endurance nut at heart, since 2013 Sam has been an acolyte of CrossFit methodology and working hard to diversify his own fitness. Through this, he developed a deep passion for helping others improve their fitness and ultimately their health.

Outside of the gym he’s often somewhere on a mountain trail hiking, biking, running, cross-country skiing… his favorite indoor activities (if we must) visiting his mother, cooking, and supporting local breweries.
