Head Coach & Club Owner
Joe Cowen
Since the age of 16 Joe has actively been involved in strength and fitness training. Like most, Joe started training out of his local gym before eventually finding ‘CrossFit’ in 2012 where he remained a competitive athlete for numerous years, regularly competing in major competitions across the country.
From being actively involved in CrossFit, Joe found he had a strong ability, passion and drive for Olympic Weightlifting. Over the past 10 + years Joe’s lifting has gone from strength to strength, and he has qualified for multiple British Weightlifting Competitions over the past 5 years, including ‘British Champs’ where he finished within the top 5 in his weight category.
Joe has been coaching Olympic Weightlifting for over 10 years, and has a huge understanding of the sport, along with a technical eye for the lifts. He has experience coaching a wide range of abilities from first time athletes to national champions, giving him a great deal of experience with people from all walks of life.
