About Gavin

Gavin has been a lifelong athlete, with more than twenty-five years in the fitness industry. He has worked for top facilities in New York and Los Angeles as a high level trainer, bringing his own style of skill-based training combined with Muay Thai kickboxing to clients who wanted to get results while having fun. In that time he has also become a much sought after strength coach. Employing the same philosophy of focus, purpose and intent in developing programs for several elite level athletes ranging from Muay Thai kickboxing, Brazilian jiujitsu, track and field, and snowboarding.

After leaving his position as an educator at Equinox Fitness in 2006, Gavin has helped develop programs for smaller gyms and Martial Arts facilities in the New York area, bringing Sandbag training, Kettle bells, Suspension training and many of what were considered to be then “unorthodox methods” of training to what is now the forefront in the fitness industry. Gavin still works to help other trainers and facilities as a consultant and has often been called “The Trainer’s Trainer” by many within the health and wellness community.

“Give someone a fish and you feed them for a day. Teach them to fish and you feed them for life”

So many times people have come to me with the same issue. “I go to the gym regularly, I lift weights, I do cardio, I spend up to 1 1/2 to 2 hours (way to long) there but I’m not seeing the results I want.” Often I will ask them to give me a breakdown of what they do at the gym, and often this is what I’ll here. “I use the treadmill (elliptical, bike) for forty-five minutes to an hour”, “I do curls, bench press, leg presses, leg curls then leg extensions then abs” (most of these movements on “selectorized*” machines), “I do back and bi’s on one day then chest and tris on the next, on the third day I’ll do legs”, “I do boot camp style classes that use bells, plyometrics, and interval training but I keep getting injuries”

gavtrainingHonestly, the list goes on and on. All of this work is done in earnest, the intent is good but more times than not people tend to either do movements that yield little benefit and /or we tend to “over train”. The problem here is lack of information along with the high amount of misinformation that is thrown at us on the Internet, television, and fitness media. The best I can do to help this situation is to try to the best of my ability to educate my clientele as to how to understand basic fitness programming, fundamentals in bio mechanics, how to understand metabolic factors in training, and most importantly how to maximize their bodies recuperative capabilities.

These are all tools that you will learn to use so that even when you’re not in a gym you will be able to design a program for yourself using as I said earlier “little or even no equipment”.

Real Fighters Gym is the culmination of 20 years of hard work, training, fighting and learning from and among many of the best fighters in the world. Currently located in the Bluegrass Industrial Park, the gym is home to Team Haycraft, the gym’s fight team. Our fight team is made up of the fighters, coaches and each and every member of the gym that support our cause. We truly are a gym family.

A very small percent of all the members that train at Real Fighters Gym actually compete. Regardless the curriculum is the same for each and every person that joins the gym. Unlike many programs across the USA, we choose to push you to do more than you knew you could versus creating watered down programs. On any given day you will find current active fighters, retired fighters, coaches and recreational participants all training side by side in our mixed level classes.

The training program at Real Fighters Gym has been time tested across the country in each and every major kickboxing and Muay Thai tournament. Our fighters compete on the international level in recent years traveling multiple times to Holland, Suriname, Spain, Germany,France, Slovenia, China, Italy and Mexico. Our fighters are well respected across the country from small regional amateur events to televised events such as Bellator & Glory.

Head Coach, Eric Haycraft, has spent his entire life learning the fight game. First as student, then a fighter and now as a coach. He has put himself in the position through his work in the sport to work side by side with many of the sports icons learning first hand from the best! These experiences culminate in the programs at Real Fighters Gym.

Real Fighters Gym offers training programs for the fitness minded, the recreational fight fan and all the way up to developing an amateur fight career all the way to the professional level.
