Chase Lester

Lead Performance Specialist
Des Moines native, Chase, has worked with a wide variety of strength and conditioning programs. He developed a passion for being a better athlete while playing junior college basketball and discovered how strength training could increase his athleticism. Turning his passion towards helping other athletes, he began to intern at Minnesota State University, Mankato in the weight room while getting his bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. Wanting more knowledge in the field, Chase interned at the University of Minnesota and University of Iowa learning the ins and outs of Division 1 level training. He continued his education by getting his Masters in Exercise Physiology at Briar Cliff University. During his time at BCU, he was a Graduate Assistant Strength Coach for eight athletic teams as well as the Sioux City Musketeers. After earning his Masters, Chase worked for the Fargo Force hockey team and as a Strength coach for Davies High School in Fargo, ND. Chase prides himself in providing the best individualized program while creating relationships with athletes. He found ETS, and it was a perfect match because of the high energy, athlete specific workouts in ETS facilities.
