Fellow Athletes,
As summer draws near, I have been reflecting upon Pat’s Gym.
Like many of you, I am drawn to well thought out and quality products and services. When I was creating Pat’s Gym, I was guided by purpose and attention to detail. While other gyms have created spaces where you can only workout; I wanted to create an environment where athletes would support one another, a space that would motivate athletes and not distract them, and where relationships amongst the athletes would be inspiring and empowering.
At Pat’s Gym, you will never experience inconsistency, and our members support one another inside and outside of the gym. Our coaches are always up-to-date on the latest science supporting their coaching techniques, and we share that knowledge with our athletes. We are constantly seeking out the latest science, the latest exercises, and incorporating that knowledge into our coaching based upon our extensive experience.
Everything we do at Pat’s Gym is based upon my four pillars of fitness. The first pillar is providing our athletes with knowledge-based workouts. The second pillar is focused on nutrition that will help our athletes achieve their goals. The third pillar is doing enough recovery to sustain the workouts that are being done. Lastly, stress management/mental toughness are tools that you will use in this journey of fitness at Pat’s Gym.
Pat’s Gym caters to “elite athletes.” I use these two words intentionally. To me an elite athlete is someone who is committed to improving his or her fitness level, and who is driven and persistent. This definition is not limited by accomplishments, and we want to serve all who have these characteristics.
Because your experience and our efforts are so inextricably linked, it is vital that I share our mission and values with you. My hope is that you feel connected to the mindset, priorities, and standards that drive us. In addition, I ask that you hold me and my team accountable every day that we serve you.
Our Mission
Pat’s Gym uses a knowledge- and experienced-based philosophy to help empower our athletes to achieve their goals and be the best version of themselves everywhere and at all times.

I encourage you to check out my blog on the Pat’s Gym website, and to follow @pats_gym and @pgilles on social media to learn more and be fully connect to this inspiring community.
