Our Story & Our Head Trainer in Little Elm, TX
ABOUT

The O Life Legacy
The O Life Center continues a family legacy that began in 2000, when Preston’s mother and father opened the doors of Genesis Fitness Center. Over the years, the gym grew into Center of New Beginnings, a place where people came to transform their lives through discipline, hard work, and genuine support.
The gym operated until 2008, when Preston’s parents chose to retire so they could spend more time raising him. Preston was too young to continue the business then, but he always knew that one day he would reopen the family gym.
Today, The O Life Center is that vision made real. The same commitment lives on here, built on decades of experience working with professional athletes, competitive bodybuilders, and other high-level competitors. When you walk through our entrance, you will see the O Life Legacy Wall, covered with signed photos and memorabilia representing that history and the standard we still hold ourselves to.
