DARREN CHANDLER

CO-FOUNDER & COACH

Hey, I’m Darren!

I have been a coach in the industry since 2014. I’ve trained hundreds of 1:1 clients, pushed thousands of people through their group training sessions, and enjoyed it all along the way.

I have spent a lot of time and energy learning and applying all aspects of strength and conditioning training, to ensure I provide our clients the best training possible. Plus, I’m a competitive person so I want to make sure I have an advantage over other trainers in the industry!

I absolutely love teaching boxing and use everything I have learned over the years to help anyone who wants to box - whether you’re just starting or are already experienced.

I can work with you to improve your boxing basics, improve your strength, Vo2 max and general fitness or help you to take your boxing to a competitive level.

So if you’re keen to get those lungs going, I’d love to help.

Can’t wait to see you all ‘round the gym!

DARREN’S
TRAINING HISTORY

As a smaller statured person, I initially got into weight training to add muscle. Fast forward 15 years and my training style has changed drastically. I’ve always loved a challenge, so even when I’m training on my own, I’m pushing my limits and seeing what I’m capable of.

Being a competitive person, it naturally took its toll and I slowly gravitated towards events that took a physical performance during the competition. I’ve racked up plenty of half marathons, a full marathon, and even gave a CrossFit competition a go, in which I placed!

This brought me to trying boxing and there it was, it lit the fire inside me and the passion was back! I’ve been boxing competitively for the last 3 years, and have even earned a couple of state titles along the way.
