A native of Bridgewater, N.S., Crouse spent the previous three years as the lead strength & conditioning coach at Acadia University where he has helped build and shape that program from a small space with a few motivated student-athletes, to a nop-notch strength & conditioning program in a recently renovated facility with hundreds of committed athletes. During his time at Acadia he has worked with amateur, U SPORTS, professional and Olympic athletes in programming and delivering training and testing to male and female athletes from a multitude of sports.

A former volleyball varsity athlete at UNB and Bachelor of Kinesiology graduate of Acadia, Crouse has extensive experience in sport performance preparation, weight room organization and management, and was responsible for overseeing a team of over 40 strength & conditioning interns.
