About Us

     Freeburg Total Fitness was first opened as Total Fitness of Freeburg in 1996 by Bruce Burke and his brother Mark.  It was a small fitness center that offered a big sense of community. Over the years, it has been added to and remolded into the gym as it stands today. Classes and trainers have come and gone, but the original spirit remains, offering people a fun and comfortable place to train in their own community. 

     In late 2015, I (Michael Deutsch) acquired the fitness center from Bruce and immediately went to work.  At the time, I had been training in Club Fitness for about four years.  The experience that I gained there was incredibly useful in improving the way that we did training, offering great customer service without the corporate nonsense.  With the help of my beautiful wife Lexie and our daughter Remi, we provide a fitness service that we are very proud of.  There have been a lot of ups and downs over the years, but I'm incredibly proud of what my teams and I have built.  I am incredibly confident that we can help anyone who walks through our doors accomplish their fitness goals.
