Edith Partida

Hi I’m Edith! I am a qualified Strength Coach who teaches people how to incorporate weightlifting into their exercise routines by keeping it safe and simple.

My personal journey with strength training and rehabilitative exercise began when I tore my ACL playing College soccer. Going through my own rehab and not being able to play on the field anymore, led me to find joy and passion through weightlifting. I graduated college in 2014 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Athletic Training. I spent 4 years working with college level sports implementing rehabilitative exercise programs. Upon graduating I worked in a physical therapy clinic for 2 years gaining experience working with post-op patients and people over the age of 55. In 2015 I got my Personal Training Certification which has led me building my own brand,“Armour Strength and Training”

My passion lies in helping my clients move pain free and helping them find joy and empowerment through weightlifting. A fun fact about me is that I am native to the Northern Virginia area. I grew up in Fall Church and am currently still in the area. With my free time I enjoy spending time with family, friends, and my 2-year-old Chiweenie dog named Flex.
