Strong, but gentle
Training can be hard and heavy without being intimidating, which is the whole reason this place exists.
We're a functional-training gym in Innsbruck, not a franchise and not a chain, which is why the coaching is hands-on and why people here know each other's names.
“Gentle Giants” is what we want every member to be: seriously strong, and easy to stand next to on your first day. No ego at the door.
“If you are very strong, you must also be very kind.”
Pippi Longstocking · Astrid Lindgren
No ego
The strongest lifter in the room and someone on their first morning do the same session, scaled differently.
All levels
The programming adjusts to you rather than the other way round, whether today is your first air squat or your first bodyweight snatch.
Community first
You'll know people's names within a week, and somebody will offer to spot your bar before you have to ask.

Owner & Head Coach Weightlifting WizardRuns the daily WODs and coaches Olympic lifting technique. He is also very good at reracking your failed squat.
Impressions
Two training halls
Two halls, both concrete and steel and full of daylight, and both stocked with the same kit. The current schedule for both halls is in BoxBase.
MAIN ROOM
The main floor. The bigger of the two halls.
SECOND ROOM
The smaller room. Open gym for members at fixed times, whenever no class is running here.

Frequent questions
What people ask us most before their first session.
I have never trained like this. Can I still come?
Yes. Everyone scales, so the strongest lifter and someone on their first morning do the same session in different versions of it, and your first one is free.
How long is a class?
Coached classes run 75 minutes, whether that's Group, Mobility & Core or Gymnastics.
Do I need to book in advance?
Yes, for open gym as much as for coached classes. The live weekly timetable sits in BoxBase. Send us a WhatsApp with the session you want and we will put you down for it.
Am I tied into a contract?
9×/month and Unlimited Monthly are rolling monthly contracts, cancel anytime; Unlimited Annual runs 12 months and costs less for it. Only the 10-packs and the €15 drop-in are truly commitment-free.
Can I train on my own?
Yes. As a member you can use open gym in both halls: OG in the Main Room and OG2 in the Second Room, both without a coach and both with the full barbell and functional kit. They run in fixed time slots rather than turning up whenever: check the timetable, send a quick WhatsApp, done. Without a membership, a €15 drop-in gets you a single session.
Will this make me too muscular?
There's no such thing as too muscular, at least not naturally. And getting anywhere near it takes a lot longer than you're hoping.
