Our Story

From Garage
to Guild.

Ten years. Four homes. One stubborn belief — that anyone who wants to lift deserves real coaching and a real place to train. This is how we got here.

  1. The Garage — 2015 — 2021
    Chapter 012015 — 2021
    012015 — 2021

    The Garage

    Where it all began: a one-car garage, a few squat racks, and a vision. Vinny started coaching neighbors and friends on the basics — form first, ego never.

    Chapter 022021 — 2022
    022021 — 2022

    HOA House

    A bigger garage, double the space, full programming — until the HOA shut us down mid-Covid. We didn't quit. We packed up and kept training.

  3. The Swamp — 2022
    Chapter 032022
    032022

    The Swamp

    A cramped boat-yard garage with no parking and bitter cold. It tested our resolve at every turn — but we pushed through, proving The Lifters Guild was built on grit and community, not walls or square footage.

Training here has been by far the best gym experience I have ever had. Vinny is an amazing personal trainer who teaches the mechanics of weight lifting. If you want to learn how to exercise in the most optimal way possible (i.e. maintaining safety and control while challenging your body enough to grow evenly) then I cannot suggest anywhere better.

Vinny is down to earth and very knowledgeable on proper lifting techniques. His training sessions allow ample time to practice and make corrections on an as-need basis when lifting. In-app guidance is also provided to help track fitness goals and exercises.

I've been working out with Vinny & Erika for over a year now, and I can truly say it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. From the beginning there was an open and easy communication to make a gym beginner like me feel welcomed into the Lifter's Guild family as if I've known them for years.

Vinny is awesome. I have been going to him for the past few months after surgery to work out more efficiently and effectively. I worked with him and my physical therapist and now back to 100%. Now working with him for my next goal.
