Strength and Conditioning

  • Cannot recomment it enough. Such an easy going group of people and dedicated and passionate trainer. Free men sessions on Saturday mornings if you are stuck in everyday work home cycle, it is soo good. Love it!

    ̶ Tomislav Bubic

  • Alex is one of the funnest people to train with and a true professional in his craft. If you’re bored with regular gym training, get in touch. I have never done workouts like this before! It’s a mixture of kettlebells, classic conditioning and gritty, army-style training methods.

    ̶ Sam Stacy

  • I've been seeing Alex for over a year now for physical conditioning, and I'm very happy with the results so far. I have also learned to change my mindset to train at home without much equipment, to be able to keep my progression on days where I can't make it to Iron Octopus. You absolutely will learn something here.

    ̶ Conor Donaghy

  • I've been attending the Saturday morning sessions and it's the best way to start the day. Alex keeps the workouts well paced & exciting and has helped sharpen my technique when throwing weights around. These sessions attract an awesome group of people. Not only are these sessions a great workout but a sik hang aswell.

    ̶ Kalhan Grenier

  • The only time in my life I have exercised consistently is training with Iron Octopus. Alex’s approach to training has allowed me to train weekly for over a year; he keeps it interesting and engaging.

    ̶ Adam Mossman

  • Incredible gym, Alex is a tremendous coach. If you're a man looking for somewhere to train this is the place for you.

    ̶ Thompson Cross

  • Alex is extremely knowledgeable. He starts with the fundamentals of human movement and tailors his training program uniquely to the individual. He has shown me how I’ve been performing basic functions wrong my entire life, then quickly proceeded to correct the faults. Highly recommend.

    ̶ Andrew Blair

  • Having mostly exercised in mainstream gyms I was unsure what to expect when I joined Iron Octopus, especially with its focus on kettlebells. After going through a 12 week program with the coach, Alex, I am impressed with the results; he strikes the right balance between pushing you to your limits and ensuring that you develop technical ability. Add on BJJ and ice baths, and you have a great gym. Recommended.
