The Team
Megan McGarry
Megan is a Portland local with special interests in running and strength training for runners. She enjoys working with both individuals and groups, and strives to make movement accessible and rewarding for all bodies. She will meet you where you’re at, whether you’re an experienced athlete looking to improve your strength and skills, or a beginner looking to build a movement routine that enhances your quality of life. While long-term goal setting can provide direction for her clients, her daily focus is to help her clients leave the gym feeling better than when they came in. She strives for each client to achieve confidence and positive body-image through strength, stability, and mobility.
Owner + Coach
Chase Mancia
Chase, a Portland-native, has been a NASM certified personal trainer for over 5 years. She has previously competed in strongman competitions and loves to help people feel the same empowerment she felt when she started lifting weights! Her training philosophy makes strength training feel safe, welcoming, and doable for everyone. Rather than forcing everyone into trendy workouts, she emphasizes training that adapts to someone’s real, changing body and life. Her ideal client is someone who is willing to try new things, trust the process, and have some fun along the way. Outside of the gym, you can find Chase and her wife at a Thorns game or thrifting around town.
Owner + Coach
Coach Joe is a Utah transplant who found his passion in movement, strength, and helping people reconnect with themselves. His coaching is rooted in strength and conditioning, but what truly sets him apart is how deeply he listens. Joe believes great coaching starts with understanding the person in front of him not just their goals, but their history, habits, stress, and daily life.
Joe helps clients learn how their bodies work, build strong foundations, and develop confidence in their abilities, both inside and outside the gym. His approach goes beyond workouts. Through intentional training, honest conversations, and lifestyle guidance, he supports clients in building physical strength, mental resilience, and self confidence.
