Theo Thurston, Founder

Theo’s own fitness journey began later in life, starting a first structured transformation in his late 40s and discovering, firsthand, how differently training needs to be approached as the body changes with age. That experience became the reason GetAgeFit exists: a studio built specifically around the needs of adults who want to stay strong, capable, and independent, not a scaled-down version of a young person’s gym.

GetAgeFit opened in Georgetown in 2016 as a dedicated, supportive environment for that mission. Theo is a Cooper Institute Certified Personal Trainer and was a national drug-free bodybuilder from 2009 to 2019. Now, at the age of 73, he is focusing exclusively on helping our older clients regain their strength, health, energy, and independence.
