Who We Were, and Who We Are Now.
Our coaches were once people who in some way felt weak, broken, or unconfident in ourselves.
People who become accustomed to failure, eventually become unafraid to lose.
We have slowly built our skills over the years, eager to share our challenges and experiences with others.
We have made mistakes, and worked hard to learn from those mistakes.
We have learned humility, and serve as a guide for those who look for the next step.
For us, training is just as much mental as it is physical. We train to keep our bodies strong and our minds even stronger.
Vigor Strength Studio aims to push a new standard of personal training & strength coaching for regular, struggling people. Like us.
We follow the scientific principles of strength training, and use our collective coaching experience to create a purely positive and progress driven environment for our people.
