My name is Turo Virta, I am owner and operator to this site.

If you are interested in losing body fat, gaining strength and improving your performance, you have found a resource to do that.

For those who want to know more about me, I am a bit over 40 years old, originally from Finland but living in South Tyrol, Italy where I work as personal trainer.

I was lucky enough to make my enthusiasm with ice hockey to my profession. I played professionally over 10 years in Finland, Germany and Italy. After my career as hockey player I became referee.

I was lucky to work with many great coaches during my playing career from who I was able to learn many things being better coach and human. It was also important to have coaches who were not so good to not make same mistakes.

When I started as Personal Trainer at 2016 my first goal was to help other people. It became a real passion to me. I like to try different things myself, read and learn what science is saying and then bring my knowledge to my clients.

What you will find though, is real, practical, and research based information that can not only help reach your fitness goals, but keep them for the rest of your life.

My approach to fitness is very straight forward. No BS. You will be reminded you have to work hard. You have to be consistent. You have to put in effort. It will take time.

But it will be sustainable and worth it.

Helping people is my passion, it is not a work. If you ever have some questions, I am happy to chat and help if I just can.

Currently my services include 1-1 Online Coaching, Membership Coaching which I offer for my clients all around the world.

Locally I offer Group courses like functional Strength Training and High Intensity Training.
