Ben Bertram — Personal Trainer & Strength Coach in Moscow, Idaho
I’m Ben Bertram, owner and head coach at Palouse Performance — a strength and fitness gym in Moscow, Idaho serving the entire Palouse region, including Pullman, Washington.
I played Division I football at both the University of New Mexico and the University of Idaho, where I earned a full scholarship after walking on. Six years of D1 strength and conditioning taught me how to train effectively, recover smart, and push through adversity — and that’s exactly what I bring to every client I work with today.
I opened Palouse Performance because Moscow welcomed me with open arms. This gym is built for everyone: the high school athlete chasing a college roster, the working parent who wants to feel strong again, the college student looking for real coaching, and the competitive lifter who needs the right equipment.
