Ilya Petrovets

General Manager / Coach

Bio

I’m passionate about helping people move better, get stronger, and build confidence through training.

I’ve been involved in sports and fitness most of my life—played varsity ball, led teams, and eventually found my calling not just in coaching, but in using fitness as a way to serve others. I spent three years at Summit International School of Ministry, where I was part of the sports ministry team. During that time, I had the opportunity to coach athletes from ages 7 to 22, helping them grow both physically and spiritually. That experience shaped the way I coach today—focused not just on results, but on purpose and connection.


My background blends CrossFit, hybrid training, and strength and conditioning. Whether you’re brand new or a seasoned athlete, I’m here to help you push past limits, train smart, and enjoy the process.


Outside the gym, I’m a husband, a dad, and someone who’s always learning. I believe fitness is about more than just workouts—it’s about building discipline, resilience, and community.


Let’s train hard, grow together, and have some fun doing it!
