TLDR – A friendly and knowledgeable group of coaches who emphasize quality over quantity and focus on foundational principles of stability and movement For context, I was someone who was quite sedentary, having played no consistent sports nor maintained an active lifestyle until I was 22. At this point, I pretty much ran before I learned how to walk by picking up Olympic weightlifting. I had a great coach and teammates who helped me with this VERY technical sport, and competed in BCWA-sanctioned competitions and even medaled twice at BC Provincials. However, over time, my progress began to plateau, and exercises that I could execute earlier on in my training became more difficult to complete. What happened was that I had not paid enough attention to basic principles of stability, such as having sturdy feet, or movement, such as engaging my glutes. Unsurprisingly, these principles are fundamental to Olympic weightlifting (or any sport for that matter). Using the kettlebell swing as a basis of my training, the coaches at AMPfit helped build body awareness, stability in the bottom of a squat, and explosiveness in my hips. Shockingly, training with a kettlebell of 24kg (53lbs) helped improve my squats, deadlifts, and Olympic weightlifting movements, which are much heavier than the bell! And without doing any those movements! In my view, AMPfit's training principles can be summarized in the following - 1. Quality \u003e quantity 2. Consistency \u003e intensity 3. Simple not easy

Amazing gym with super professional coaches! I love the focus on safe and efficient techniques and the passion all the coaches have for what they do. Trying to stop by as often as I can even though the gym is pretty far for me!
My wife and I did starter packages for StrongFirst kettlebell training and it was super informative! Owen and Liv were fantastic coaches and we thoroughly enjoyed all our sessions. We would \strongly\ recommend AMPFit!
After a number of years attending a \conventional\ gym going through the same workouts - (Bench Press, Lat Pulldown, flys etc) I was finding it harder and harder to become motivated to go due mostly to boredom and stagnating results. My wife purchased a 4 session package with Owen and I can honestly say that the results have been nothing short of life changing. By learning some basic movements and techniques I have been able to drastically improve strength, mobility, posture and flexibility and what's more - I look forward to practicing these new movements daily as the ongoing challenge to mastering them is an incredibly fun and challenging experience. Anyone who is looking to increase strength, mobility, flexibility, overall fitness level or even to add some new movements to your grind would greatly benefit from visiting Owen and his staff. I cannot say enough good things. A tremendous experience.
