About

We are A Community Of individuals Committed to Reaching Your Health and Fitness Goals

Sthenos Ath­let­ics is a re­sults-based gym that uses the pow­er of an in­clu­sive com­mu­nity to give you help and sup­port along the way.

We are a move­ment-first gym. What that means is that we pri­or­i­tize movements over mus­cles. This is what it means to be ”func­tion­al fit­ness”. But we’re not ig­no­rant to the fact that aes­thet­ics plays a big role in peo­ple’s mo­ti­va­tion to train. So that plays a fac­tor as well in how we struc­ture our train­ing. We all want to look good.

We pri­or­i­tize strength train­ing, but not to the ex­clu­sion of con­di­tion­ing. Often times, we train them all to­geth­er.

To erase any con­fu­sion, we are not a Cross­Fit gym. Cross­Fit has brought to the main­stream what strength and con­di­tion­ing fa­cil­i­ties have been do­ing for decades.

We mere­ly are us­ing sim­i­lar move­ments to ac­com­plish a task.

Our mis­sion is to make HERO­IC hu­mans who are stronger than they were yes­terday, who can move bet­ter and pain-free, and to build con­fi­dence to go about their dai­ly lives with­out wor­ry of pain and fee­ble­ness.


HERO­IC hu­mans who can set an exam­ple for oth­ers in their lives on how to live and be strong.

We Actually Give A Shit!

We care about you, your suc­cess, and your goals. How many times have you signed up at a gym only to see no re­sults and lit­tle progress, or to stand there way­ward, wonder­ing what to do?

At Sthenos:
We be­lieve in prac­tic­ing strength.
We be­lieve train­ing should be chal­leng­ing, yet fun.
We be­lieve train­ing should build the body up, not tear it down.
We be­lieve in giv­ing our­selves MORE. Not con­stant­ly cut­ting away and de­priv­ing our­selves to the point of un­hap­pi­ness, but to nour­ish our bod­ies and to gain strength.
We be­lieve it’s OK to have aes­thet­ic goals.


The mus­cle mass on your frame is a ma­jor play­er in your health and longevi­ty.
Bet­ter move­ment is al­ways the goal.
If you love your body, do what’s best for it.

Our Philosophy

As we age our muscles begin to atrophy. Loss of muscle contributes to fat gain, low mobility and function, and even early death.

Greater amounts of strength will develop both athletic and aesthetic qualities, as well as nurture a greater sense of self-confidence and self-efficacy in life. Higher levels of strength have also been correlated with better cognitive function and mental health.

We believe strength to be the master quality

This is not to say we believe other aspects of fitness to be unimportant. On the contrary, we believe cardiovascular health to be very important as well as pain-free movement and the mobility to navigate through life. We train all these aspects. But mobility is worthless, even dangerous, if you don’t have the strength to control your body within those ranges of motion.

What We Do:

  • We will provide you with expert coaching.
  • We will develop a program to help you achieve your goals.
  • We will help you bust through training plateaus.
  • We will guide you through the minefields of nutrition, sleep, and recovery so you can make the most of your time in the gym.

Your End of the Bargain (what you need to do):

  • Have the motivation to show up and be consistent.
  • Be willing to work hard.
  • Be willing to do what is necessary the 163 hours of the week we don’t see you in the gym.

It doesn’t matter what level you’re starting at as long as you’re motivated.

Try Hard.

Show up.

Ask questions.

Good things will happen.
