Celebrating 6 Years of West Coast Strength: Six years ago today, I turned a lifelong dream into reality and opened West Coast Strength.

It’s every gym rat’s dream to open a gym. I worked harder than I care to admit and made sacrifices I wouldn’t be able to make again. I felt every single bit of it, but I fulfilled my promise.

Over the past six years, I’ve learned so much and been fortunate to share the road with incredible people: a partner who lets me be who I am, a team that follows me wherever I go, friends who have my back, and a family that loves me unconditionally.

I know my dreams and choices impact more than just myself, and for the support I’ve received, I’m forever grateful.

This is my life. Today, I’m proud to say I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be, and I still have a fire burning inside me, telling me that I can do better.

Cheers to West Coast Strength. I’m honored to be here.

We’re here to help you fall in love with the journey—the early mornings and the late nights, at your best and at your worst.

“Just keep going”. We are always here.

This May, we’re shining the spotlight on none other than Sally Wasko!

Though you might not see her often, Sally is the force running the show behind closed doors! She’s a crucial part of our success and growth at West Coast Strength, and it’s hard to imagine our team without her.

This Mother’s Day, we extend a heartfelt “Happy Mother’s Day” to Sally and to all the mothers out there! Sally isn’t just a mother at home; she’s also the mom of West Coast Strength, always there for us and keeping us motivated!

Thank you, Sally, for everything you do. We can’t say it enough!

In 2018 I ventured to California to explore some of the world’s most renowned gyms. My mission? To soak in the gym culture and bring back a spark of that passion and excellence to Oregon, which I felt was missing something special.

Fast forward to today, and I’m just overwhelmed with gratitude. The journey at West Coast Strength has been nothing short of amazing. We’ve built something incredible together, and believe me when I say—we’re just getting started.

One rep at a time, I’ve always said it, and I’ll say it again: “We’re just getting started.”

Cheers and thanks for tuning in. Get ready, because we’re taking over. Let’s show the country how we rock in the PNW!

Today, we are filled with both sadness and pride as we bid farewell to our friend Sean, who is embarking on his journey to medical school.

Though he joined us more recently, Sean is truly West Coast Strength at heart. He has made a profound impact on both members and staff alike through his hard work and camaraderie.

Thank you for being a part of our family and for exemplifying what truly means.

Cheers doctor.
We’ll see you soon.
