Deionte A. Turner
Coach at Fit Augusta

Deionte started coaching traditional strength and conditioning in 2019, added CrossFit in 2024, and joined Fit Augusta in 2026. He played varsity basketball in high school and went on to serve in the Army, where he earned his Master Fitness Trainer qualification through the H2F program. He also appears on Fox54’s Wellness Wednesdays segment.

Deionte believes fitness and wellness should be a real part of everyone’s life, and he coaches to put his knowledge in the hands of people who want that for themselves. Nothing beats watching someone pull off a skill they were sure was out of reach. He likes working with beginners and competitors alike. Outside the gym, he’s the youngest of three siblings, spends his free time watching anime and gardening, and has a five-year-old husky at home. His note to anyone nervous about a first session: he’ll challenge you to challenge yourself, but he’ll never push you past your limits.
