Discover a different approach to strength training with the Gravity Training System at Kalev Fitness Solutions in Downtown Vancouver. Using specialized Gravity Trainers, this method combines adjustable bodyweight resistance with controlled, functional movement to develop strength, stability, mobility, and confidence without relying solely on conventional weight training.
Note: Gravity Training is currently available exclusively at our Downtown Vancouver location. This service is not offered at our Burnaby or Coquitlam locations.
Strength training does not have to mean heavy barbells or repetitive machine exercises. Our Gravity Training in Vancouver provides an adaptable way to challenge your body using controlled resistance, natural movement patterns, and personalized coaching that meets you at your current ability.
Gravity Training is adaptable enough to meet people at very different stages of their fitness journey. Whether you are learning resistance training, returning to a consistent routine, or looking for an alternative way to complement your current workouts, the resistance and exercises can be scaled around your ability and goals.
Work individually with a coach using the Gravity Trainer as part of a program shaped around your goals, ability, movement patterns, and progress. One-on-one personal training allows exercises, incline, resistance, technique, and progression to be adjusted specifically for you.
Learn the system with a trainer who understands how to apply Gravity-based resistance purposefully rather than simply moving through exercises. Coaching focuses on proper setup, controlled technique, appropriate progression, and making each movement fit your current ability.
Train alongside a small group while benefiting from hands-on coaching and a structured session. Small Group Personal Training combines the energy of training with others with exercises that can still be adjusted to suit different fitness levels.
Experience coach-led Gravity Trainer Classes built around full-body resistance, functional movement, strength, stability, and conditioning. With six Gravity Trainers available at our Downtown Vancouver location, these sessions create a specialized training experience that feels distinctly different from conventional machine-based workouts.
Gravity Training works best when resistance and movement progress with the person using the equipment. Rather than chasing intensity for its own sake, our process starts with understanding how you move and gradually builds challenge through technique, resistance, exercise selection, and more confident movement.
Your coach first learns about your training experience, current fitness, goals, and how you move. This creates a useful starting point for choosing exercises and an appropriate level of resistance.
You will become familiar with the equipment, body positioning, movement patterns, and how changing the incline affects resistance. Early sessions prioritize control and confidence so you understand the movements before progressing them.
As movements become more comfortable, your coach can adjust the incline, positioning, exercise selection, range of motion, or training demands. Because the Gravity Training System uses scalable resistance, progression can be introduced without simply adding conventional weights.
Training progresses beyond individual exercises by incorporating functional and multi-plane movements where appropriate. The goal is to develop strength alongside balance, stability, mobility, and movement quality that can support an active lifestyle.
I completed this program for 5 weeks and had a great experience. The workouts were definitely challenging at first, but they delivered an excellent full-body workout and had me sweating every session. Troy is a fantastic coach—supportive, knowledgeable, and great at keeping you motivated.
I trained with Troy for about three months and had a positive experience. During that time, I noticed improvements in how my hip and knees felt, and the training helped me get back into exercising more comfortably. I would recommend Troy to anyone looking for a supportive and effective approach to building strength and mobility.
I’ve been training with Troy for 6 months doing a mix of HIIT and strength training and have seen amazing results in terms of inches loss went from size L to M and S, my personal strength has increased - i’ve tracked my progress weekly so seen a consistent improvement in the fat to muscle ratio as well. My weight dropped by 4kgs despite a lot more muscle gain. I went 3 times a week and will 100% recommend him if you’re looking for a trainer in the Vancouver area!! FYI i had to take a few weeks of breaks here and this progress is despite that!
Gravity Training is a resistance-training method that uses your own bodyweight with specialized equipment, adjusting the challenge through incline and body position. As the angle changes, the amount of resistance changes, allowing exercises to be scaled to different abilities. It can be used to train strength, functional movement, stability, balance, mobility, and overall conditioning.
A Gravity Trainer uses an adjustable incline and your bodyweight to create resistance rather than relying primarily on stacked weights or springs. Increasing or changing the angle alters the challenge, allowing resistance to be progressed in a controlled way. The equipment also supports a wide variety of upper-body, lower-body, core, and integrated full-body exercises.
There can be visual similarities because both may involve controlled movements performed on specialized equipment, but they are different training systems. Gravity Training uses bodyweight and incline to create resistance, while Reformer-based exercise typically uses springs to provide variable resistance. People who enjoy controlled, movement-focused exercise may appreciate aspects of Gravity Training, but it should not be presented as another form of Pilates.
Yes. One advantage of the Gravity Training System is that resistance can be adjusted according to the client’s current strength and ability rather than expecting everyone to perform the same workload. Beginners can focus first on learning the equipment and movement patterns before gradually increasing the challenge.
Yes, Gravity Training provides resistance that can be progressively adjusted as you become stronger. Troy’s approach emphasizes consistent resistance and measurable progression while combining strength with functional movement, balance, posture, and stability work. As with any strength program, individual results depend on factors such as training consistency, programming, recovery, and starting ability.
No. While Troy frequently works with adults over 40, the system can be adapted for beginners, active adults, runners, cyclists, recreational athletes, and other clients who want structured resistance training. The ability to adjust resistance makes the Gravity Trainer useful across different experience levels and training goals.
With 1:1 Personal Training, the session is centered on your individual goals, movement, resistance level, and progression with direct coaching throughout. Small Group Personal Training adds the motivation and social energy of training alongside others while retaining structured instruction. Both formats can use Gravity Trainers, but the amount of individualized attention and group interaction differs.
Gravity Trainer Classes use the specialized equipment as part of a coach-led workout incorporating resistance exercises and functional movement. Depending on the session, training may challenge different combinations of strength, stability, balance, core control, mobility, and conditioning. With six Gravity Trainers at our Downtown Vancouver location, clients can experience this specialized equipment in an engaging class format.
Not necessarily. The equipment can make resistance highly scalable, but reducing impact or using controlled movement does not automatically mean an easy workout. Your coach can progressively change the incline, body position, movement, volume, and exercise difficulty to create an appropriate challenge.
Gravity Training with Kalev Fitness Solutions is currently available only at our Downtown Vancouver location. Independent trainer Troy Tyrell brought six Gravity Trainers to the location and provided specialized coaching using the system. Gravity Training is not currently offered through our Burnaby or Coquitlam services.
