Provide personalised training programmes. I believe that CrossFit is not just about the physical aspect, but also about fostering a sense of community and support.
At CrossFit Desire Central, located in Albion's hybrid training facility Gym Cartel and CrossFit Desire North in Northgate, the coaches are experienced and dedicated to the CrossFit community. They believe in the power of CrossFit and strive to create a team environment where safe and efficient movement patterns are emphasised for both individual and group success.
The gym, which was launched in 2012, is home to coaches and members who have been active in the CrossFit community for a decade. Their passion to introduce new members to the value of CrossFit is matched by their dedication to their current members. With some of the most experienced coaches in Brisbane, CrossFit Desire is a training-focused community that aims to produce the best possible version of yourself.
CrossFit Desire welcomes individuals from any fitness background, ensuring that everyone feels at home and progresses with each session. The trainers prioritise creating a supportive and inclusive environment, where everyone can excel and enjoy the journey. The training facilities are a space for members to come together, do some serious training, and enjoy the company of like-minded individuals.
Founder and CrossFit Coach L2, Simon Colley, created Gym Cartel as a platform to enrich people's lives in a way that goes beyond the conventional gym experience. His goal is to help people prioritise their health, enjoy their lives, and feel good about themselves and others. He believes that the gym should be a place of enjoyment rather than necessary pain.
With 17 years of coaching experience and personal athletic goals, Simon has a deep understanding of what works and what doesn't in fitness. He continuously learns from his own mistakes and strives to keep coaches and members on the path towards their goals. Simon's passion extends to the children's classes at the gym, where he takes joy in seeing young individuals have fun and grow in the gym environment.
At CrossFit Desire, the focus is not just on physical fitness, but also on building a supportive community. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete, CrossFit Desire is dedicated to helping you become the best version of yourself and creating a fitness family that you can call your own.
