Kelly Morgan — a 53-year-old bodybuilder, U.S. Air Force veteran, registered nurse, mother of two, and fierce advocate for sustainable fitness — is the powerhouse behind MorGainz Fitness.
As the founder and owner of this multi-location brand, Kelly leads operations, drives expansion across southwestern Pennsylvania, and still carves out time to train and mentor members personally.
After four years of active duty in the U.S. Air Force, Kelly became a nurse, earned her undergraduate degree, and raised a family — before diving headfirst into entrepreneurship. Frustrated by the lack of high-quality training facilities in her hometown of Johnstown, PA, she set out to create something different: a gym rooted in science, nutrition, and no-BS accountability.
In 2012, she launched the flagship MorGainz Fitness — a 10,000-square-foot facility in Richland Township. A movement was born.
Today, MorGainz offers 24/7 access, cutting-edge equipment, expert coaching, body composition analysis, and the Ignite90 program — Kelly’s signature, science-based transformation system built on heavy lifting, macro tracking, and grit. With thousands of success stories and counting, MorGainz has grown into a regionally recognized fitness community built on one promise: You Leave Better.
Whether she’s competing on a bodybuilding stage, working with the Johnstown Tomahawks hockey team, teaching classes, mentoring clients 1-on-1 or virtually, or instructing at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown — Kelly brings presence, purpose, and passion to everything she does. She proudly supports her community, serves on the board of the nonprofit Steeples Project, and is a sponsor of Wendy Bell Radio.
