Lakewood's Best Semi-Private Strength Training
At Catalyst Fitness, we have redefined the fitness experience for adults over 40 in Lakewood, CO. Founded in 2014 by Corey Slinkard, our semi-private training model combines personalized coaching with the energy of small groups, ensuring tailored workouts that adapt to your unique goals and fitness level. Our team of certified experts, including Head Strength Coach Brian Malloy, Head of Operations Katherine Slinkard, and in-house Physical Therapist Dr. Tara Loveland, prioritizes sustainable results through science-backed programming. Members benefit from exclusive tools like the personal progress journal, InBody body scanner, and injury-prevention resources to track measurable improvements. We cultivate a supportive community where clients train alongside peers who share similar life stages and goals, fostering accountability and encouragement.With a 7:1 client-to-trainer ratio, we focus on building strength, improving mobility, and creating long-term lifestyle changes rather than temporary fixes. Our facility includes premium amenities like a complimentary espresso bar and monthly check-ins to maintain consistent progress. Unlike big-box gyms, we emphasize individualized attention while maintaining the motivational benefits of group training. Our physical therapy integration ensures safe execution of every movement, making fitness accessible for all experience levels. This holistic approach has established Catalyst Fitness as Lakewood's premier strength-training destination for mature adults seeking lasting transformations.

Semi-Private Training
Our semi-private training combines personalized programs with small-group motivation for adults over 40. With a maximum 7:1 client-to-trainer ratio, workouts are customized to individual goals while maintaining group energy. This science-based approach ensures measurable progress through detailed tracking systems.
Women's Body Sculpt
This twice-weekly small-group class focuses on women's specific fitness goals for hips, core, and shoulders. Led by Head of Operations Katherine Slinkard, sessions build lean muscle while creating a supportive environment tailored to female physiology and lifestyle needs.
Physical Therapy Integration
Our in-house physical therapist Dr. Tara Loveland provides movement assessments and injury rehabilitation. This integration ensures proper form execution, addresses mobility limitations, and creates safe pathways for progressing exercise intensity while minimizing injury risks.
Body Composition Scanning
The InBody scanner measures muscle mass and body fat percentages to visualize progress beyond the scale. This technology provides comprehensive insights into physical changes, helping adjust training and nutrition strategies for optimal results.
Personal Training
Fully customized training sessions offer dedicated attention for specific goals like skill development or focused accountability. While semi-private training is our specialty, we accommodate individual needs requiring maximum personalization through traditional one-on-one formats.
