COACH Billy GARTSIDE

co-coo/c0-head strength coach

This workhorse of a human is not only an exceptionally good coach, but he is extremely handy on the tools. When he isn’t taking sessions or classes, you’ll more than likely find him tinkering around and fixing things within the studio.

The amount of hours this guy puts in and the level of care that he provides to his clients is why we love him and why we are so very lucky to call him ours. He is constantly pushing himself to become better + to learn more so he can then inspire others and help them do the same.

Billy is another one of our powerlifters and has been training under + alongside Coach Josh for over a year now. His ability to follow the methods provided to him + staying consistent with all aspects of his health + fitness regime is why he has come so far in such a short amount of time.

As far as human beings go, Billy is one of the better ones that you’ll ever meet. The only time that you will see him without a smile on his face is when he is in game mode and about to attack a barbell. All other hours of the day you will get the polite, well-mannered individual that we have grown to love and who will literally go out of his way to help whenever needed.

When you are in the gym next, find the guy with the coffee in his hand + ask him to show you his killer Jete!

“ I have been working with Billy for about 6 months doing strength/powerlifting training. Billy is a pleasure to work with - a very experienced, knowledgeable and professional trainer. My technique has improved with his coaching to a level where I am lifting more than I have ever lifted while being injury and pain free. The sessions are hard work, with a good dose of humour thrown in! ”
