Renegade Training's Story

About Renegade Training

We help people reach their potential through community, a passion for wellbeing and a commitment to lifelong fitness.

Our Story

Every gym has a beginning. Ours was a simple idea: give ambitious people in Pittsburgh a place to train honestly and effectively.

Over the years that idea became a gym with serious programming, high expectations and members who hold each other accountable. Skip the neon and the gimmicks. What you get here is coaching that produces results.


  • Fundamentals over fads
  • Patience over quick fixes
  • Habits that hold up for decades


Every piece of equipment, every class and every coaching cue at our Shadyside gym has a reason behind it.
