About Me

Olivia Harrington
ACE CPT, USAW-L1, CF-L1

I am a Certified Personal Trainer (ACE CPT) with additional specialties in USA Weightlifting and CrossFit training, and founder of Strength Journey.

The creation Strength Journey was driven by my belief that strength brings tremendous empowerment and satisfaction to anyone's life. After strength training and coaching for the past 15 years I have witnessed this firsthand in my life and those who I am privileged to coach.

My own strength journey began in high school when I first discovered powerlifting then continued competing on the collegiate team and became a National Champion. I went on to to compete on the international stage for three years where I proudly represented USA Powerlifting and placed 2nd in the bench-press.

After competing at an elite level, I decided to expand my knowledge of strength training by learning CrossFit and Olympic Weightlifting, while also starting my coaching career. Over the past 10 years, I have been honored to coach clients that were learning how to strength train for the first time, training for triathlons, or preparing for a Powerlifting meet. I truly believe strength training is for everyone and hope to work with you soon!

Outside of coaching, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two dogs. I live in the beautiful state of Oregon and enjoy hiking, being a member of book clubs, and thrift shopping.
