Chris Fisher, Founder & Co-Owner

Out-Fit was founded by Chris Fisher in 2005. Prior to Out-Fit, Chris was a national account manager and handled key accounts, including 24 Hour Fitness. The company began as Chris anticipated the industry evolution from a direct sales model to a local distribution model with an emphasis on local points of contact and a high level of customer service. He brings over 25 years of experience in the fitness industry and a passion for athletics to Out-Fit.

Chris attended California State University Northridge on a track scholarship and holds a BS in Kinesiology. His commitment to athletics continues with his participation in trail races, triathlons and is highlighted by his completion of three Ironman’s to date.

Wil Morrise

Wil has been in the fitness industry for over 20 years starting on the manufacturer side before moving to distributor sales. The ability to see both sides of the business allows him to have a better perspective on the industry as a whole. Furthermore, his successful track record selling into all markets from club, hospitality, multi-family and municipalities to schools, colleges and universities empowers him to serve his clients best and to find the optimal solution for their specific need.

Creating relationships and making his clients feel like family is something Wil takes great pride in. He feels it’s important to put himself in his client’s shoes and to strive to exceed their expectations.

Outside of work, Wil has always been into sports and aside from playing them himself, loves to coach his son and watch him grow as an athlete. Another personal passion is poker — he enjoys learning about the game and constantly improving. 

Christina Sagaser

Christina Sagaser grew up as a Gymnast and active athlete.  After graduating from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo with a Kinesiology degree and multiple training certifications, her obvious path was to work in the fitness and athletic industry.  With years of training and multiple sales positions within various industries, selling for Out-Fit is the perfect position for Christina.  Being a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist enables her to understand not only how to train clients, but how to find the best products to suit the firefighter/police officer, corporate client, specialized training studio or hospitality environment.   Having the ability to bring her true passion for functional fitness into designing the best space along with the client has brought great success.

In her spare time, Christina, along with her husband, is blessed to spend time with their two boys competing in various sports and spending time with family and friends. 

Having a professional role that she truly loves brings excitement to each prospect and client she encounters.
