BRANDON KELLY COACH, ENTREPRENEUR, VISIONARY We all have dreams, some we share and others we tuck away deep inside our hearts. The pivotal moment in a person’s life can be a simple decision to stand up and take a step forward toward his or her dream. Brandon Kelly has spent the last five years of his life taking steps to build a staircase for others to climb on. This staircase is long and winding, and for some of us, the destination is uncertain. One thing is clear, however. The decision to take a single step on this stairway to your future will propel you on a journey full of hope, strength, support and endless possibilities And that’s a step worth taking. B Brandon Kelly is the Owner and Founder of Undisputed Strength Co. and CrossFit Joliet, in Joliet, IL. Starting out with nothing but a vision and sheer determination, he set out to rebuild the fitness industry and drive it in a more positive direction. At first glance, Kelly looks like the kind of guy you’d either love or hate, no in between. His tall stance, broad shoulders and serious demeanor create a bit of an intimidating effect. But underneath the tough exterior lives a down-to- earth, genuine human being who truly cares about making an impact on the world, one person at a time. I recently had a chance to sit down and ask Brandon some questions about his life, his business and most importantly, his dynamic hair. Here’s your chance to dive a little deeper into the story of the man behind the vision. Written by Fatina Sayegh
