I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude to my trainers for the exceptional service they provided during my time with them. Not only did they help me achieve all of my goals, but they also played a key role in relieving me from my injuries. Their attentiveness and genuine care made every session feel personal and purposeful. What truly stood out was how they managed to make the entire experience not just effective, but fun. The knowledge and education I gained from them will stay with me for a lifetime, and I’ll always look back on this journey with appreciation and respect for their dedication. Thank you for everything!

I can’t say enough great things about The Athleticus and Olya’s incredible team. From day one, they brought professionalism, precision, and deep expertise to every session. I came in with a serious injury, and they worked with care, knowledge, and the kind of hands-on skill that you just don’t find everywhere. If you’re looking for results and a team that truly knows what they’re doing, this is the place. They don’t just help you heal—they help you come back stronger.

Absolutely amazing team! I came in with bilateral shoulder pain from improper form at another gym. I didn’t want to take time away from the gym and lose my strength. The Athleticus team has helped me with rehabilitation of the shoulders, maintaining proper form and staying strong!! They even take the time to address my knee and lower back pain when it occurs!! I love the personalized plan that is specific to my body!! Highly recommend them!!

I've been training here for the past few months, and the experience has exceeded all my expectations. The facility is clean, well-equipped, and never overcrowded, which makes every workout feel personalized and productive.
The trainers are extremely knowledgeable, encouraging, and truly invested in helping you reach your goals. They take the time to tailor each session to your needs and fitness level, whether you're injured or pushing for the next level.
What really sets this place apart is the supportive atmosphere — it’s welcoming, non-intimidating, and motivating. You’re not just another member; you genuinely feel like part of a community and part of an organization that is invested in your health.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a more focused, results-driven approach to health and fitness!

What are you waiting for? The Athleticus has the best personal trainers' hands down. No run of the mill gym here. These coaches are understanding of the physical body and how to customize a program to meet your needs. I've had many injuries that were not rehabilitated correctly, and now I am able to sleep better and work without the pain i have endured for years.
I have been putting off doing this for many years, and now I wish I could have started years ago.
Don't wait any longer. This team is the Bomb!
Thanks, Oyla, Andrew, Luke, and Nic!! 5-STAR

I appreciate the team at the Athleticus so much! The gym is welcoming, very clean, never crowded, and most importantly staffed with experienced trainers who genuinely want to help you achieve your goals.
I have always been very physically active, but slowed down a lot like many others over the last 5 years. I've found that the longer you are inactive, the less energy you have to become active again. As I lost strength and energy, the issue compounded and made it seem impossible to get back to where I was, to where I feel the most like myself.
At some point I decided that I wanted help, primarily to keep me accountable, help me build back lost muscle, and to guide me properly as I learned how to strength train. I chose to look into smaller local training gyms because I wanted a more personal experience with very qualified trainers. I initially visited another local gym and had a consultation and body scan, but the owner/manager never followed up with me so I never got started with them.
During my first consultation at the Athleticus, I could immediately feel Olya's passion for her business. Her energy is exactly what I needed and had been looking for, so I didn't have to think very hard before joining.
I've now been with the gym for 6 months, and they can't possibly know how much they've helped me! I'm still working on my goals, but I already feel so much more energized and like myself again. Luke, Nik, and Andrew are all very talented and they each bring a different energy and expertise to my training.
I wish I would have started earlier, but like most people my biggest concern was the cost of personal training and how I could justify spending the money when there is so much free information online. I delayed starting for a long time for that reason, but after 6 months I can say it's the best money I've ever spent and I'd do it again every time. My health and energy is the most important thing, and I needed the help to get back to it. If you're on the fence, I'd highly recommend investing in the help you need to keep yourself feeling good, and you should definitely do it with the Athleticus!
Athleticus team, I appreciate you all!

I cannot speak highly enough about my experience at Athleticus in Gulfport. From the moment I began working with their team of highly skilled trainers, I knew I was in the right hands. At 76 years old, I wanted more than just a typical fitness routine—I needed an approach that would truly address my unique challenges and help me reach specific personal goals.
Initially, my main focus was to gain muscle, but after the first few evaluation sessions and in-depth discussions with the trainers, we realized that improving my balance and correcting some long-standing physical issues would have a far greater impact on my overall health and quality of life.
What sets Athleticus apart is their deep understanding of how the body functions—not just muscles and movement, but also how past injuries and structural imbalances can affect overall mechanics. I have flat feet, with my right foot being significantly flatter, and an old right ankle injury that had triggered a chain reaction: piriformis muscle issues, lower back pain, and pelvis misalignment. One of my long-term goals has been to stand on each foot for 60 seconds—a simple yet powerful measure of balance. Thanks to the trainers’ strategic approach, I can now stand on my left leg for 60 seconds, and I'm seeing real progress on my right leg for the first time in years.
They also addressed another lingering issue—a knot beneath my right scapula, a remnant of a car accident over a decade ago. Their methodical blend of strength training, stretching, neural retraining, and myofascial release (including the occasional use of a deep tissue percussion massage gun) has finally started to ease the tension I thought I’d have to live with forever.
Each trainer brings their own unique perspective and expertise, yet they work together seamlessly, alternating sessions while maintaining a clear, unified strategy. This collaborative approach keeps my workouts fresh and targeted while ensuring all aspects of my physical goals are addressed. Their knowledge of anatomy, biomechanics, and the importance of retraining the nervous system to support corrected movements has been invaluable.
For the first time in years, I’m seeing real, measurable improvements—not just in strength but in my balance, posture, and overall movement. If you’re looking for a fitness studio that genuinely understands the body and takes a personalized, holistic approach, Athleticus is the place. Their small client base ensures focused attention, and their dedication to helping clients succeed is unmatched. I couldn’t be happier with the progress I’ve made and look forward to continuing my journey with them!

I first came to the Athleticus looking for help with my strength training. I’m a former competitive athlete that’s been running into brick wall after brick wall of injuries. I needed someone to build a strength and rehab plan around my specific needs, the Atheleticus did just that, I’ve been working with Nic and Luke and my experience has been great. Olya the owner is an absolute dynamo when it comes to running the gym and being client first oriented. Can’t recommend enough.

Man, I went to this gym, Athleticus, and let me tell you, what a disaster! Thanks to Luke, my trainer, who actually treats me like a real person and knows everything about proper form, my biceps got so big, I can’t even fit into my shirts anymore. And then there’s Nick, who’s always pushing me to the next level. When I first met him, I was like, ‘What the heck, man? Where’s the part where I struggle alone and question all my life choices?’ But by the end, I felt like I’d actually accomplished something. Unacceptable.
And another thing—where’s the authentic gym experience? No fighting over sweaty equipment? No waiting in line while someone takes an eternity scrolling through their phone? And worst of all—absolutely zero influencers hogging the mirror for an impromptu photoshoot while I awkwardly try to work out in the background. How am I supposed to build character if I’m not dodging someone’s 37th attempt at the perfect gym selfie? Instead, it’s just one-on-one attention, clean equipment, and—get this—it smells GOOD in there. I mean, who even does that? Where’s the overpowering scent of desperation and body odor I’ve come to expect? It’s like they actually want me to enjoy myself. Ridiculous.
If you’re looking for a gym where you can suffer in peace without any of the usual frustrations, this is the place. But honestly, if you’re nostalgic for that special blend of sweat, loud grunts, endless selfies, and shattered self-esteem, look elsewhere. Highly not recommended!

This is an amazing client centered gym! As I became older I started to lack the confidence to start a new program. My biggest fear was getting hurt and I really wanted a place where "everyone knows your name". ( Think Cheers). Athleticus is the neighborhood feel with expert guidance and tailored accountability. Improvements are celebrated and individuality is respected. The owner is professional and involved in every aspect of her business and the equipment is top notch. The coaches all have diverse backgrounds and bring varied perspectives to your training. I really excel when I know the 'why' behind the training. The connection of the mind and muscle makes progress inevitable- especially for people who.like to overthink things (true confessions). Whatever level you are on and wherever you want to start (continue) your journey do yourself a favor and become part of the Athleticus family. Make that commitment to yourself and those who love you and come be a part of something very special in 2025: I can't wait to continue my journey!

I've always been active but never a "gym person". So when I wanted to take my fitness up a notch, I looked at options and settled on The Athleticus because of the unique vibe, trainer expertise, and personalized attention. It's one of the BEST decisions I've ever made! Over the past 3 months, I've learned proper training & weight lifting techniques, reduced body fat while gaining muscle mass, and had a great time doing it. I highly, highly recommend The Athleticus. You'll get the right training approach for your individual goals, and learn tons of information you can use for home workouts that really kickstart your enhanced fitness regime. Don't hesitate, give them a call and at least get the fitness evaluation... you won't regret it!

When searching for a personal trainer, it is so important to find someone who is skilled and knowledgeable. If you don't do your research, You may end up hiring someone that could possibly lead you towards injury, or just someone that may not understand your goals and how to get you there in the most effective and efficient way. The trainers at the Athleticus really know their stuff. How do I know? Because I have worked in the health and wellness field for over 12 years. Olya and her team are extremely well-educated and knowledgeable. They strive to help their clients reach their goals and build lifelong healthy habits.
Not only that, but they care about the community that they live in. They support local businesses and local people. They have helped dozens of their clients through the horrible catastrophes of hurricane Helene and hurricane Milton. They want to see you succeed. You will not be sorry when you have hired one of these top notch trainers!

Athleticus was highly recommended to me by a personal training friend who no longer in the business. I contacted them, but the monthly rate was a little more than I could afford at the time. I then received a call from the owner offering a $399/5 session summer special, which I was told I had all summer to use.
I agreed and we set up my first 2 sessions shortly after that. Initially there was confusion where the agreed upon times/dates differed from the times/dates in the confirmation emails I received, but we worked through that.
Having herniated discs in my neck and a partial tear in my rotator cuff and labrum, my first 2 sessions were great, no pain afterwards. One of those sessions I showed up too early, but they kindly accommodated me.
The 3rd session I felt the trainer went into too much explanation on how muscle groups worked together, and burned up too much of my 50 minute session...not to mention my shoulder began bothering me again after that session.
I emailed the owner, explained that, and requested a particular trainer for my last 2 sessions.
Without explanation, I received an email stating:
"It has not been a good experience for anyone involved and our team is not a fit for your training goals. So, I have refunded your last training session. I have also refunded your training session with Brett since we never want anyone to feel like working with us was a waste of $$."
I was completely taken by surprised by her email...so I replied asking what she meant, but received no response. I guess you have to take the trainer she assigns you or she cancels your membership.

From the moment you walk into this gym, you can feel the difference. The gym, itself, is bright, clean, and motivating...and doesn't smell like a men's locker room; but what's truly incredible is access to trainers that really understand you, your goals, and work with you every step.
When I started working out, I was really focused on losing weight and was supported every step of the way. But as I continued to gain confidence, our workouts started to progress and I was all the sudden not going to lose weight, but enjoying how strong I felt in my body. Find you a trainer that can move that seamlessly with you because you deserve it.
If you've been waiting to get started, just go. They will meet you where you're at and they really do care!

The team at The Athleticus are wonderful humans to have on your side as personal trainers. I really enjoyed the smaller space as I don't enjoy large, open areas at standard gyms. I had knee pain throughout most of my life and they were able to help me correct the issue through proper squats and other exercises. The only reason why I don't give them a 5 star is because their prices jumped and I wasn't able to train with them any longer. However, they were always great at listening to my needs, and restructuring the workout to fit my pains that day.

What Olya has created at the Athleticus is truly an elevated experience. The team is so knowledgeable, caring, fun, and supportive. Training with Andrew and Alvaro was incredible. Their expertise made me feel comfortable, knowing that I was in great hands. I learned how much I could push myself and received the right amount of challenge from them. They spent time explaining how my body moves and why, helping to correct my foundation and setting me up for success. I would defiantly recommend Athleticus to anyone who is serious about their fitness and is looking for a top notch experience!

The Athleticus has the most educated, supportive, and wonderful staff who assist with all medical or fitness related personal training needs. You get to train with two people regularly and sometimes others which can be really helpful in both matching you with the right trainer and exposing you to different perspectives. I have only been training for three months and have already begun a life transformation with the focus on better nutrition, balancing macros, increasing activities with my at home workout plan, and recipes that Athleticus provides. I can’t recommend this place enough!

The staff at The Athleticus are professional, personable, and know how to get the best results possible! I required injury rehab following an on the job incident and my personal trainer was able to put together an individualized work out routine which was instrumental in my recovery. I was told that my recovery would take a year and we were able to cut that down to 7 months! I really enjoyed The Athletics environment. It was not overwhelmingly crowded like typical commercial gyms due to careful planning by management. I would highly recommend to anybody looking for a friendly environment and knowledgeable staff.

I highly recommend The Athleticus . Ive been training at The Athleticus for 4 months . I had never had a personal trainer before. I always went to the gym and used machines. I was completely surprised to learn how many ways to strengthen without machines. And I learned a lot about anatomy and how our muscles work with each other.
The trainers are incredibly knowledgable , personable, and communicative. I love how they work together to make different programs for me.
I had a bad bike accident 12 years ago and stretched the nerve to my right deltoid. It was hard to do anything over my head and lateral. I had given up on ever gaining strength there or even it getting better. I told the training team about it and I was amazed at how they worked together to come up with a program for me. It has changed my life. I didn’t know I could get better. It included PT exercises and strengthening and reawakening the nervous system. I am forever grateful for their expertise.
The gym is clean and very well equipped. There are social events and lots of cheering on by staff. Thank you Olya for creating such a professional space. A shout out to Brett, Marisa, and Andrew. You guys Rock.

Five stars for The Athleticus! After the birth of our second child, I knew I needed a workout regime to help keep up with two little ones. Olya and her team are fantastic! Brett, Andrew and Marisa are so incredibly patient and teach you everything you need to know to properly train. It had been over four years since I worked out consistently so I was hesitant to go to a “big box gym,” because I had no idea what I was doing! The personal approach and attention of The Athleticus was exactly what I needed to ease myself back in. Plus, as Olya mentioned in our intro meeting, everyone who works there are good people. I couldn’t agree more!

I joined Athleticus at a time when my back was hurting on a daily basis. I was paired up with qualified trainers who took my pain serious. They tailor made my workout program to fit my needs, strengthening my core, teaching me the mechanics of body, and how to properly stretch for activities of the day. In less than two weeks my back pain was gone and at 58 years old, I feel better and stronger than ever before.

Olya and her team at The Athleticus are phenomenal. I was looking for a place that was more than just a gym, and from their tailored fitness programs to the monthly InBody assessments, I got what I wanted and more! Working individually with several coaches gives me the chance to hone my understanding of different exercises and how they help make each muscle group stronger. With a variety of educational and work experiences, the coaches each bring their own strengths to the team and to my personally cultivated workouts. I started my journey in December 2023 after looking at several different places and I'm so glad to have found a home here. After just one month I started noticing that I had more confidence in public and carried myself more upright. I work remotely and so my default position had always been hunched over my laptop. I'd get done with my work and have difficulty standing completely upright without pain. Once the coaches at The Athleticus helped me understand how to engage all of my muscle groups during different exercises and feel their firing patterns, I started finding it easier to keep up good posture throughout my workday and end my day without pain. This in-depth understanding of my body and the way that I move isn't something I ever would have gotten at a typical gym. I'm about six months into my journey now and have more confidence in myself than ever before and more strength than I ever imagined I would, even having been athletic from a young age. The time and dedication each member of The Athleticus team shows me impacts not only my time in the gym but the time outside of it, too. Learning how to correctly perform exercises that I've done my whole life has been a complete game-changer for me. Every time I step into the gym at The Athleticus, I'm excited and ready for more gains!

The best personal training in Gulfport/St. Pete! The boutique studio space is welcoming, organized and such a vibe. The team of coaches are extremely knowledgeable and it's clear they have a passion for helping people reach their fitness goals. I've worked with a personal trainer before coming here who injured me in the very first session, so I've learned the value of having a great coach the hard way. The personal trainers at The Athleticus have helped me get stronger and overcome my injury, which is something I didn't think was possible! An excellent team of coaches who truly care for every person that walks through the doors. Whether you’re looking for strength, mobility, longevity or just some accountability, each coach has their own unique style so there is something at The Athleticus for everyone. And what a big plus that you get to work with two coaches! It’s so nice to not just have the support of their team but of the whole community that trains there too. This place is a must if you're interested in becoming the strongest version of yourself!!

I've been training here for almost a year. I was looking specifically for a boutique gym like this one so I visited with Olya and got a good feeling about the place, and I decided to try it. I love that there's no contract or long commitment but I plan on staying here for a long time. I love my training team. They are non-judgemental, motivating, and experts at what they do. I was nursing a chronic shoulder issue when I started here that caused daily pain even with over a year of off-and-on physical therapy, and with the strengthening and conditioning I've done with my coaches, it doesn't bother me much at all anymore. I feel stronger, more fit, and I look forward going to the gym. I love that my coaches have my training plan all ready for me and I don't have to think about anything. It's so easy!

WOW! Where do I begin? I am a SAHM of four young children 7 and under and had all 4 kids in 5 years. My body was NOT happy to say the least. When I began I was weak and I had no idea how to even lift weights or what weights I should be using. After training with The Athleticus staff, I am STRONGER, more confident, knowledgeable, competent, and take a way bigger approach to prioritizing my overall health (nutrition, sleep, diet, exercise, etc). I won’t mention the specific weight loss or muscle gain, but I am DEFINITELY making huge progress toward my goals.
I have had an amazing experience with the staff, I never felt judged for how much help I needed, and everyone is SO knowledgeable I am blown away with how much I learned.

I’d like to take a moment to rave about The Athleticus. I started over 6 months ago and I’m thrilled by the progress that I’ve seen. I was an athlete as a teen, but schooling, life and having kids really put a damper on my physical fitness and I was at my highest weight ever and feeling terrible. I sat down with Olya and we made a plan to work on my physical fitness with strength training. We also talked through some easy nutrition modifications. I’m naturally an anxious person, but it was the least intimidating meeting and she was very outgoing and friendly. Scheduling has been easy and very flexible with my crazy schedule. I’ve been working out regularly with Chaz, Andrew, Marissa and Alvaro and really enjoying my time at the gym. Each of the trainers have their own personality and style but my program and preferences are always taken into account. Over the 6 months (July through January), my strength has increased, my body has changed, I FEEL amazing, I’m more confident and my energy is up. I’ve tried a million things over the years to get in better shape, but I haven’t been able to stick to anything for more than a few weeks. Having accountability and support from The Athleticus has really been the spark that I needed to make this change.

Super exclusive (max 42 members) so always very private and no waiting. The place is inviting and spotless, and the trainers are the best around - all with advanced degrees or training. They designed a completely personal program for my needs and goals and all I do is show up and the coach leads me through it. As a result I gained 6 pounds of muscle and completely rehabilitated a hip replacement in less than 3 months. And by following their instructions on cardio training (non-gym days) and strictly following their guidance on eating and macros, I also lost 9 pounds of fat and dropped body fat percentage 3% during the same period. If that wasn't already enough, for months I'd been unable to get past 130# on chest press because of some previous injuries, but in one session the trainer did some gym voodoo on surrounding muscles and 10 minutes later I was easily benching 150# for 10 reps. They really know their stuff - easily the best facility in the area and one of the best I've seen around the country.

I became a fan of personal training while living in Hawaii and had been looking for a similar experience once I moved back. The team at The Athleticus fit the bill. Their tagline “We got you” isn’t just words, it’s words they live by.
Taking the time to explore my personal goals, they designed a customized workout plan that was tailored to my goals. At my first workout, they assessed my flexibility, agility and fitness and modified the exercises to meet me where I was … all the time encouraging me on the path of where I wanted to end up.
An added bonus is the app they provide which allows me to work out independently through the week and have the trainer check in on my progress. The at-home workouts did not require me to buy any additional equipment. They asked what I had at home and designed the workouts accordingly. Not only does it provide a fitness roadmap, it also provides accountability to do the workouts.
I’ve belonged to gyms with more “bells and whistles” and have not gotten the results that I’ve been able to get with a personal trainer. I’ve worked with multiple trainers at The Athleticus and I’m betting that everyone will find a trainer that they are comfortable working with. Everyone I dealt with wanted me to succeed.
As a fan of supporting local businesses in Gulfport, I recommend visiting The Atheleticus and seeing what they can do for you. Not only will you be investing in yourself, you’ll be supporting a local business which is conveniently located just down 49th.

Exceptional Personal Training Experience at The Athleticus
When I walked into the gym with my existing rotator cuff injury, I was filled with uncertainty and concern. However, my worries were put quickly to rest. Unlike previous practitioners I'd seen, who focused solely on typical rehab work, I was offered an innovative approach to my recovery process which wasn’t repetitive and dull. This unconventional route was not only refreshing and fun but proved immensely effective, helping me to become completely pain-free.
What sets this gym apart, though, is more than just their expertly crafted recovery strategies. It's the keen understanding and genuine warmth of the entire staff. They truly listen and strive to comprehend each member's unique needs and situations. Their ability to modify exercises to match individual requirements is nothing short of extraordinary.
I can confidently say that their comprehensive approach has been a vital tool in my recovery journey. Coupled with other tools and techniques that I've been employing, their personalized training and guidance have been instrumental in my progress.
If you're seeking a friendly, understanding, and professional environment to meet your fitness needs, I can't recommend this place highly enough. You'll find the staff eager to guide you, always with a smile and with your best interest at heart.

I started working with the trainers at the Athleticus about 4 months ago. It had been a couple of years since I routinely worked out or followed a program and I gained a lot of weight, lost muscle and flexibility, dealt with knee pain and just felt terrible. I still have a long way to go, but I’m down about 10 lbs and while the scale hasn’t changed much, my range of motion, flexibility and muscle tone have improved and I notice a difference in my energy level as well as how my clothes are fitting. The trainers are all amazing- friendly and knowledgeable. It was the kick start I needed to get motivated and commit to exercise again. Now it’s a part of my routine and I look forward to my gym days rather than dread it. I also like the set up- I always hated going to “chains” because of my gym anxiety and feeling like I was being judged or insecure because I didn’t know what I was doing- being the only person there with maybe 1 other and just the trainers makes me feel much more at ease. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great trainers and a personalized routine!

The Atleticus is a really cool place for personal training; the equipment is all new and the staff are great! They have trainers who are highly knowledgeable and can work with beginners as well as experts. Great place!
Went there for Pilates on a Saturday morning. Ashley is also great for a Pilates workout!
Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed taking a small group Pilates class here recently! The space is so cool with the indoor and outdoor areas and really matches the vibe of this city!

Beautiful space with an outdoor workout area too. I like how the gym is community-driven, and it's been fun trying out the classes that the owner had been adding. The gym is also always really tidy and all the equipment is new which is super nice 👌 I'm so glad that we still have small businesses like this in Saint Pete.
