Holly Kouvo: Exercise Helps College Students Manage Stress

By admin on November 2, 2025

Exercise helps college students manage stress! In 2002, certified personal trainer Holly Kouvo had a vision: to create an independent personal training company that teaches clients innovative ways to fit exercise into their daily lives. You can improve balance and strength using chairs, build strength by doing arm curls with a gallon of milk while waiting in line at the grocery store, or exercise with bands in a hotel room. Holly’s philosophy differs from the traditional “create-a-standard-routine-for-the-gym” mantra. She prides herself on creating customized programs that fit each client’s unique lifestyle. Holly takes your goals, likes and dislikes, strengths, and time constraints, and helps you to fit fitness in to your day.

In episode 614 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out what inspired Holly to dedicate her life to helping others “fit fitness in”, how college students in their 20s can start investing in their long-term brain and body health, some of the biggest misconceptions young adults have about aging and wellness, how exercise helps college students to manage stress, what are some simple, creative ways college students can “fit fitness in” throughout their day, how much exercise does a college student really need to see benefits, how nutrition plays into brain health and longevity, how fraternity and sorority leaders can model this within their chapters to build healthier, more energized communities, and what lessons we can learn in her upcoming book, “Fitting Fitness In: Staying Fit, Sharp, and Independent as You Age”.
