Six people. One coach who knows your name, your bad shoulder and your calendar. Fifty-five minutes, two or three mornings a week, in a studio built for adults with real jobs, not for the guy filming himself in the mirror.

01The room

No mirrors wall.
No waiting for a rack.
No one under thirty filming.

Walk in at 6:05 on a Tuesday and there are five other people, one coach, and a whiteboard with your name on it. That is the whole scene. It is quiet enough to hear the coach correct your hinge and loud enough that nobody feels watched.

We are on Olympic, ten minutes from Brentwood, twelve from Santa Monica, and the lot is ours, which on the Westside might be the second-best reason to join.

  • Turf lane, racks, trap bars, sleds
  • InBody scanner on site
  • Showers and clean towels
  • Sessions on the hour, 5:30a – 7:30p

02The method

Personal training
that happens to
have company.

It is not a class. Nobody is counting to eight at the front of the room. Everyone in your session is running a different program, on different weights, coached by the same person.

Coach to member · 1 : 6

  1. 01

    We measure before we prescribe

    InBody scan, movement screen, and a conversation about your last ten years, not your last ten workouts.

  2. 02

    A coach writes your program

    A real human builds twelve weeks around your goal, your history and how many days you can actually show up.

  3. 03

    You train it, coached

    Five other people are in the room running their own plans. Your coach is watching your reps, not the clock.

  4. 04

    It gets rewritten every four weeks

    Progress, plateau, travel, a tweaked back: the plan moves. That is the part the app on your phone will never do.

Start here · it costs nothing

The Starting Point Session

About an hour with a coach before you spend a dollar. You leave with a written twelve-week plan whether you join or not, rewritten every four weeks once you start. That is not a gimmick, it is how we would want to be sold to.

03The proof

Member story 01 / 04

Carried her own bags through three airports in Japan.

I joined because I got winded on the stairs at LAX. Two years in, I did three weeks in Japan, all my own luggage, no complaints. The coaches know my knee better than my doctor does.

04The coaches

The same faces,
year after year.

Big-box gyms churn trainers every eight months. Our coaches have been here for years, which is why they can tell you what you lifted last March and which shoulder to watch.

Marcus Reyes

Studio Director

NASM-CPT · Corrective Exercise · 11 yrs coaching

Spent six years in big-box gyms before deciding he was done writing the same program for everybody. Coaches the 6:00a crowd and remembers every knee, shoulder and travel schedule in the room.

Priya Anand

Head Coach

CSCS · Pre/Postnatal · 8 yrs coaching

Former collegiate rower who now specializes in getting people strong around old injuries. If you have been told to 'just stop lifting,' she will politely disagree and then show you why.

Devon Clarke

Coach

ACE-CPT · Nutrition Coach · 6 yrs coaching

The person who will text you when you miss a Tuesday. Runs the nutrition check-ins and keeps the whiteboard PR list honest.

Sam Whitfield

Coach

NASM-CPT · TRX · 4 yrs coaching

Came in as a member at 42, lost 30 pounds, got certified, never left. Best person in the building at making a first session feel like nothing to be nervous about.

awkward ones.

Is this a class or is it personal training?+

It is personal training that happens to be in a room with up to five other people. Everyone in the session is running their own program on their own weights. Nobody is counting to eight at the front of the room.

I haven't trained in years. Am I going to be the worst one there?+

Most people walk in from a long break, an injury, or a desk job. Your first four weeks are built off your movement screen, not off what the person next to you is lifting.

What does it cost?+

Membership depends on how many sessions a week you train. We will walk you through exact pricing at the Starting Point Session, before you are asked to decide anything. No contracts hidden in the fine print.

How long is a session?+

55 minutes, and it starts on time. Most members train two to three times a week.

I have a bad back / knee / shoulder.+

Then you are our normal client. Bring anything a doctor or PT has told you and we will build the program around it. We coach a lot of people who were told to stop lifting entirely.

Is there parking?+

Yes. Free lot parking on site, which in this part of the city is arguably the second-best reason to join.

What happens after I book?+

You get a text and an email confirming your time. Show up in normal workout clothes. There is no sales room, no day pass upsell, and no pressure to sign anything that day.
