Andrew Hangartner
Elite Trainer, Co-Owner
Andrew is always having a good time, even when he’s not. His no-nonsense approach is consistently peppered with nonsense to keep you having fun as you struggle through the pain. Relatable, encouraging and real, he believes that the mental journey is the most important part to achieving fitness goals. He thrives on pushing people past their limits and never accepts “I can’t”. If you’re easily offended then this isn’t the trainer for you. He is an accomplished cross fitter, football player, martial artist and physique competitor, but he will be the first to tell you that his greatest accomplishment is coach.
