About Chalk

The future of group training.

Chalk Training Ground was built to close the gap between professional training and community gym culture. A place where intensity meets technique, and where every member trains with intent.

Mission

CTG is the future of the everyday athlete. We are removing the boundaries of possibility and potential within the realm of sport and fitness.

Our mission is to inspire as many people as possible to live a life of health and ultimate human performance. To nurture a community of camaraderie, kindness and fun where everyone is an athlete.

The Studio

The Training Ground.

two sessions running side by side.

The main floor, the Training Ground, is the heartbeat of the gym, where all group sessions take place. Grand open-floor spaces ensure visibility across two simultaneous group fitness sessions, making the gym feel open and inclusive no matter what workout you choose.

That visibility is intentional. It creates a strong, interactive atmosphere and energy while showcasing different training disciplines side by side. The same design lets the space host larger events, throw-downs and competitions, adding to the social and community focus.

The remaining open floor space is home to a full set of stationary weight machines, cardio equipment and free / functional weights. Whatever the session, the tools to back it up are already there.

Trisha

Competed professionally within Muay Thai boxing, Bodybuilding (IFBB) and Endurance sports for over a decade before making a switch from the corporate world into the business of fitness and nutrition. As her experience within intense training developed over the years, so did the realisation that it was not available within conventional gym environments.

A gap also existed within the more intense environments for any markable technical progressions. This is how the idea and the CTG training style was initially born: by wanting to develop a brand/product that offers full athletic ability, skill and progress all tied together through community.

Trish is the creator and co-owner of three gyms and a healthy F&B company alongside a multitude of smaller projects, including fitness holidays, speaking and hosting at wellness/media events and for TV shows.

Frankie

Frankie started practicing strength and conditioning in Gaelic athlete teams and Rugby teams from the mid 90s – 2008. He has been recognised as a leader and anchor point in each of these organisations. The qualities were instilled in him from an early age due to independent family business operations, where true work-ethic culture is a factor.

Along with competing professionally in Muay Thai and Endurance sports, like Trish he developed a broad understanding for the development of fitness as a healthy lifestyle and narrowing the gap between professional training and community gym training.

Since 2016 Frankie is co-owner and founder of three gyms: The Vault Total Conditioning, The Vault Performance Fitness and Chalk Training Ground, along with a healthy food company, The Fitness Kitchen. With huge passion and determination to open many more locations worldwide.
