HI, I'M CLIFF!
With several years of experience, I’ve helped people transform their health through fitness and wellness. But my calling is greater than workouts or business—it’s ministry. As a minister, I’m passionate about bridging the gap between faith and fitness.
I believe our faith journey is a lot like our health journey. Both require consistency, discipline, and trust in God’s process. Just like we grow spiritually step by step, we also grow stronger and healthier one decision at a time.
My mission is to walk alongside you as you become the healthiest version of yourself—mind, body, and spirit. Together, we’ll not only build strength and endurance, but also grow into more of who God has called you to be.
This isn’t just about being fit—it’s about being well. I want you to be well physically, mentally, and spiritually—and I’d be honored to take that journey with you.

MORE THAN WEIGHT LOSS: TEMPLE BUILDERS TRANSFORMED MY LIFE
Temple Builders first helped me to understand that being fit is not about losing weight, it’s about getting, and staying healthy and catering to those areas that need attention, and the weight will balance itself out. Temple Builders has taught and shown me that our bodies are our temples, and sometimes what we bring into our temples gives us the weight to bear. That changed my way of looking at myself and life and almost 2 years later I am thankful to say that I surpassed my 60lb goal and am living a healthier life because of Temple Builders.

Looking to get in shape, lose a few pounds, get a great workout, then Temple Builders is the place to be!!! Our Senior Ministry at Hood Temple A.M.E. Zion Church looked forward with great enthusiasm to the weekly workouts. As a result we slept better, we were educated on how to eat healthier, and got into a sustainable routine of exercising on a regular basis. Hands down, no doubt it Mr. Barnett is the Real Deal!!!

FAITH-FUELED FITNESS THAT TRANSFORMS BODY & SPIRIT
Cliff Barnett with Temple Builders is the epitome of what we were looking for in a personal trainer. His Godly approach to fitness allowed for us to not only have a physical workout but also a spiritual one. There’s nothing more you could ask for!
Cliff possesses a wide range of knowledge as a trainer, and that is put on full display with his various sessions. Whether it’s a high intensity circuit to get your heart rate up or a mentally stimulating yoga routine to relax your mind, Mr. Barnett has a workout library that covers all bases. He seems to always know what your body needs and when; never overexerting you and allowing for proper recovery from prior workouts.
On top of it all, Cliff also is well versed in diet and nutrition. His provided meal plans can help assist you with your caloric intake and provide insight as to what you should be eating and drinking on a day to day basis to complement your workouts.
