Cory Smith

“Personal development is something I work on consistently and it’s what I help others to work on too. This is one reason I’ve been a part of this industry for many years. I want to help people achieve this when they’re working towards their own goals, in and outside of the gym. My specialties include individual approach to each program design. Whether that is applied for injury management or getting ready to hike, ski, lose weight or build muscle, I’m here to help you reach your goals.”

Cory has always been a very active individual playing sports growing up and still to this day. He
played competitive hockey, golf and track and field while getting a chance to participate in a lot
of other sports. Despite most of those sports now being pursued for fun, competitive
powerlifting is what fuels Cory for his personal goals as he competes through the BCPA.

Cory brings a passion to coaching as if it were day 1 but with a wealth of experience (coaching
for nearly 10 years and working out for over 20). He has always enjoyed helping others and the
teaching component that pairs so nicely with coaching.

He is a down to earth individual who wants to help use the gym and training environment to
serve the people he works with, enhancing their quality of life in and out of the gym. Some key
principles that are part of Cory’s personality/coaching style are respect, honesty and integrity.
Cory specializes in strength training, pain reduction, biomechanics and developing good
behavioural habits that set people up for success for years to come.
