I initially decided to join THRIVE when I was training for a half marathon. Turns out it was the best decision I could've made! Not only did it supplement my marathon training, but it has helped me achieve a day to day fitness and wellness that is truly invaluable. I have gotten stronger and more confident in my abilities, both as a runner and in general. I have never felt holistically better, and am forever grateful for Derek's guidance and to be a part of the THRIVE community. If you are looking for an individualized strength training program in a fun and friendly small group setting, THRIVE is definitely the place for you!

At age 78 I was in the habit of biking and walking regularly. However, I felt I had lost strength over the years--particularly upper body strength. I decided to join Thrive Strength and Fitness where I got coaching and an individually designed strengthening program designed to my needs. I have been a member over a year, and happy to say I can lift 40# bags of water softener as needed, carry 2 20# boxes of kitty litter up a flight of stairs and get the tops off of jars and bottles whenever I please! I heartily recommend Thrive Strength and Wellness--professional, knowledgeable and committed to members.

I began attending Thrive Strength & Wellness after age, work and sports related injuries began setting me back in mobility and discomfort. I joined at the advice of my jujitsu coaches as my level of pain was increasing dramatically. Derek was absolutely instrumental in finding my physical imbalances and developing a plan to strengthen me and lessen my pain. Honestly, it was so simple and straightforward that I didn’t think it would actually work. I have a personalized plan and the ability to communicate changes, goals and successes with him at any time. He (as well as the other fitness coaches) pay attention to form and hold me accountable to my goals (I do need that!).
I love the upbeat and small setting of Thrive and the mobility I’ve gained and the reduction of pain is life changing. I really thought I had no recourse but happily, Derek proved otherwise.
Coaches are professional, knowledgeable, fun and motivating. I couldn’t recommend more for any age, goals or ability!!

I’ve been training at Thrive Strength and Wellness for more than a year now, and plan to stick with its program for a long time. I would strongly recommend Thrive to anyone who has an interest in maintaining or gaining strength for sports or daily activities. Co-owner Derek Gelato and his team of coaches are knowledgeable, thoughtful and caring. People of all ages and abilities will get stronger working out in Thrive’s welcoming community.

The facility is clean, professional and well organized. The real value is in the strength and wellness programming. Created and managed by great coaches your program focuses on you and your goals. When I started I couldn't do a setup. Now, I can lift more than my body weight. This is the healthiest, the strongest, and the most functional I have ever been. I'm 72.
