F.A.Q.
Please check our PRICING page. We specialize in building custom programs so you can learn how to plan your own workouts and nutrition.
Our online coaching clients have way more success, so we have stopped taking in person clients after covid. Instead of spending time driving to the gym and having pleasant-yet-useless small talk with clients between sets, our coaches spend the same hours you’ve paid us for developing detailed training, nutrition and recovery programs for the WHOLE MONTH and making ourselves available for any questions 9-5 daily.
Worry not! We’ve all started somewhere. Ask any coach on this team, or elsewhere.
Before accepting you into the program, the assessment call helps us learn more about your current life situation, time limitations and past injuries – and design a perfect program that will make you challenged enough to keep comfortably progressing!
Resistance training is scientifically proven to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression and a whole lot of other mental health conditions.
Train for the brain!
Yes, we offer macronutrient calculations and meal plans. We teach all of our clients a flexible dieting approach, which allows you enjoy your favorite foods while improving body composition (losing fat, gaining muscle, gaining strength).
Giving a man a fishing rod instead of the fish, colloquially speaking 😉
The majority of people we train are 50+ and just want to stay in shape or lose 20 lbs and feel better in their bodies.
You don’t need to “prepare” to start working out. Ever. We’ll design a nice introductory program for the level you’re at, no matter how easy or hard.
No. We coach by macronutrients. How to fit the macros you’re programmed is up to you. About 60% of our athletes are vegan / vegetarian. Rest are not – we don’t judge or preach.
Most of our clients (and coaches!) have injuries. We’re human and life happens. Most clients come to us NOT KNOWING they have injuries! The most common ones are: low back pain, knee pain, scoliosis, neck and back injuries.
Because all of our plans are custom made – we tailor your training to rehab from existing injuries, avoid overuse and bust through plateaus.
We’ll adjust your training every time you travel to keep you on track!
The app through which we provide training and nutrition guidance works on Android, IOS and PC.

Testimonials
When I met Katya, I was super frustrated because I've tried everything, and had no results. Katya has made a custom plan for me based on the equipment in my garage, and removed the exercises I hated! Butt toned up, and my belly is flat now, arms - strong! Highly recommend working with Katya - she is a very attentive and knowledgeable coach who pushes to REAL RESULTS!!
Actually, I want to say that I feel like a hero! And that's all thanks to you, Katya!! In those days when I force myself to delay all of my house work and go DO the workout-I feel as If I'm doing something courageous. I start feeling so proud of myself and this feeling is overwhelming. I’m so pleased with the feelings of beauty and harmony! Thank you so much for everything!!!
I am so grateful to have "stumbled" across sis Katya Gorbacheva on Facebook. Her thoughtful and knowledgeable posts caught my eye and began a conversation about life and fitness, fresh and unfiltered. She cares about each of her clients and works hard to meet them where they are while helping them to heal and become the best version of themselves.
