Owner: Kyle Winton, of Lakesite
Date opened: 2010
Location: 1771 E. Boy Scout Road, a 6,000-square-foot space where the gym moved in 2013 from its original 2,000-square-foot location nearby on Hixson Pike.
Focus: "Functional training is huge for us," said Winton. "Making the human body move better so the quality of life is better is what our goal is."
Clients at Complete Training are encouraged to use their bodies as their workout equipment rather than machines.Complete Training can help clients to fulfill a specific mission, such as losing weight or training to play a sport in college, or to address issues in certain parts of the body - such as the hips, knees or lower back - making them feel and look better at the same time, he said. "We can really do anything," hence the name, Complete Training, said Winton.
Clientele: Roughly half of Winton's clients are young athletes training to play all types of sports, and the other half are adults. The gym offers fitness classes for kids ages 5-12, with most kids transitioning to one-on-one, sport-specific training around middle school age.
Many kids spend a lot of time with their tablets or phones and don't know how to run or sit correctly, and the gym's fitness classes teach them to move properly and introduce them to their core muscles and how to strengthen them, Winton said.
What sets the gym apart: Complete Training doesn't use a lot of machines or equipment, which Winton finds restrictive. "We want you to learn how your body functions as a whole," he said. "For the most part, we want you to use your body as equipment." He said the gym also strives to make fitness fun, from the laid-back atmosphere to the music. "We try to take the edge off for people."
Coming soon: Check the gym's website for information on its summer program and fitness classes for kids.
