GREG STROOTMAN
Coach Greg started working with Golden Line Training in 2021. Born in 1990, he spent his high school, juniors, and college years playing ice hockey and golf. After graduating college in 2014 and ending his competitive hockey career, he found the sport of CrossFit and started competing as an individual under the guidance of GLT Owner and Head Coach, Matt Bryant.
Greg’s love and desire to learn more about fitness and wellness led him to pursue his NASM CPT, CrossFit Level 1, and OPEX Level 1 certifications. Greg currently works with clients from all sporting backgrounds including high school & collegiate athletes, as well as CrossFit athletes, where he had two individuals competing at the 2023 North America East Semi-Finals and one athlete on a team at the 2023 North America West Semi-Finals.
When Greg is not coaching, you can be sure to find him out on the golf course, traveling, or working out at his local CrossFit gym in Denver, Colorado.
RICKY KOPP
Coach Ricky grew up and currently resides in San Antonio, TX. He started his fitness journey in high school as an endurance athlete competing in Texas high school cross country and track & field. Ricky spent a good portion of his childhood also traveling the country racing Motocross competitively.
Fitness became a staple in his life early on, but he fell in love with CrossFit when he stepped into a local box in 2014. He enjoys competing locally, as well as coaching competitive athletes as well as your everyday fitness enthusiast. Ricky found Golden Line Training in 2021 through the owner of Elite CrossFit who introduced him to Coach Matt Bryant. From there, he began utilizing individualized training. He believes in the mission of Golden Line Training as he has seen this work on his own fitness, lifestyle, and nutrition journey.
TRAVON BENTON
Hi my name is Travon Benton and I’m located in Austin, Texas! I grew up playing baseball and football competitively from little league all the way through high school. After high school, I went on to play two years of junior college baseball at New Mexico Junior College, and then received a scholarship and finished my baseball career at Texas State University. After my baseball career ended in 2019, I began pursuing CrossFit and quickly realized that I had the drive and talent to compete at a high level. The following season, I qualified for the Pro Division in my first ever competition as an individual. This is what lead me to meet Coach Matt, and I have now been part of Goldenline Training for 3 years.
Since then, I’ve qualified for two Semifinals, two years at Wodapalooza (Elite Division) and have finished as low as 19th in the world in the CrossFit Open. I enjoy coaching competitive athletes as well as anyone who is eager to learn and grow in fitness. I love to learn, and am excited to extend my learning by sharing the knowledge and experience that I acquire with others!
