Meet the founder

Hi, I’m David Portenga — the founder of Portenga Strength Co. I’m a personal trainer, former multi-sport athlete, and current competitor in both bodybuilding and endurance sports. I’m passionate about helping athletes like you unlock your potential through smart, intentional training — built on discipline, faith, and hard work.

Portenga Strength Co. exists to build more than athletes — we build disciplined, high-character individuals who perform with purpose. Every workout is designed to make you stronger — not just physically, but mentally and spiritually too. For me, training is a way to glorify God through hard work, excellence, and service.
