Zdeněk Weig; Owner & Trainer

I’m a certified CrossFit instructor, personal trainer and nutritionist. After living 10 years in the Pacific Northwest in the United States, I returned to my hometown of Prague, along with my wife & children, to open up the first CrossFit in the Czech Republic.

I’ve always been involved in fitness- I played competitive tennis for ten years- but it was while working as a firefighter & fire instructor, that I was introduced to CrossFit- & I knew that I had found my sport.  I started out training on my own, in our fire hall, but eventually trained alongside Skip Chase at Mt Baker CrossFit, to perfect my techniques and to learn about running a gym.

My goal is to pass along my passion for health & fitness to as many people as possible, while building the best gym in the Czech Republic- and I feel very lucky to have found a great group of people to work with.

Joey Scafidi, Trainer

I’m from Pensacola, Florida and I’ve been living in Prague off and on since 2005.

My interest in fitness began when I was 13 and started lifting weights in my friend’s garage in an attempt to “get big” like his older brothers were.  While in high school I was on the weightlifting team where I got my first exposure to Olympic lifting; our meets included the clean and jerk, bench press and squat.

I continued training through my time in the Marine Corps and finally while in Prague.

I discovered CrossFit in August of 2009 and never looked back.  I’ve made more gains during 10 months of CrossFit and learning how to eat properly than I had in the 10 years prior!

I realized that this is absolutely the future of fitness and that realization led me to Holland in March of 2010 to get my Level I CrossFit Certification.

I look forward to spreading the value of CrossFit and helping others to lead fitter lives!
