George Lee
Owner at Fit Augusta

George joined Fit Augusta in 2013 and started coaching in 2015, the same year he had the opportunity to purchase the gym and became its owner. He spent most of his career in the corporate world in operations and leadership roles. He was an athlete growing up and stayed active for years, until work and life crowded it out and he found himself out of shape and miserable. Finding CrossFit changed all of that.

George coaches because he wants people to find the same joy in fitness that he did. His favorite moment is watching someone pull off a skill they were convinced they’d never do, or never do again. He loves working with beginners of every age, from kids and teens to adults. Outside the gym he has three grown kids and a grandson he loves spending time with, and he officiates high school football, which is a big part of why staying in shape matters to him: he wants to keep doing it as long as he can. His message to anyone walking in for the first time is that we’ve all been there. Fit Augusta will meet you where you are, and you’ll be amazed at where you can go.
