The coaches on the floor
6 certified coaches — a state gold-medalist powerlifter, two certified nutritionists, an ISSA coach with a master's degree, and specialists in contest prep, injury rehab and fat loss. They are on the floor during opening hours, not behind a desk, which is the difference between a gym with trainers and a gym that coaches.
Sunny
Competition Prep & Fat Loss
Six years of professional coaching and sixty-five documented transformations behind him, Sunny is the coach members are sent to when the goal has a date attached to it — a stage, a wedding, a photoshoot. He competes himself and coaches competitors, which is why the contest-prep side of the floor runs the way it does.

Syed Akram
Strength, Aesthetics & Discipline
Seven years on the floor have made Syed the coach most first-timers end up with, and that is deliberate: he is the one who will spend a full session on how a movement should feel before he cares what is loaded on the bar.

How coaching works here
Every new member starts with a fitness assessment and a coach-led introduction to the equipment, whichever membership they are on. That is not an upsell — it is how we avoid teaching bad habits we then have to undo.
Beyond that, how much coaching you get is your choice. Group classes are coached throughout, some memberships include personal-training sessions each month, and additional one-to-one sessions can be added to any membership.
If you are training for something specific — a show, a sport, a deadline — ask for the coach who specialises in it. All 6 of them are listed above with exactly what they handle, and each profile carries their certifications, their phone number and the client results they have on record.
