Catalyst Performance Training

Catalyst Performance Training, also known as Catalyst Fitness & Performance, is a private training studio in Cambridge’s Central Square. It is not affiliated with any single type of program. Every client gets a coach and a roadmap, built from an individual assessment and custom programming, along with hands-on coaching for safe and effective technique and communication both inside and outside the gym. Training happens one-on-one or in small groups led by the studio’s coaches.

Program options include weight loss and body composition work that combines corrective exercise, strength training and conditioning; athlete development focused on strength, power, speed, agility, mobility and transferring force to a sport; and mobility sessions built on stretching, activation work and myofascial release. The staff follows a written set of core values centered on accountability, continuous improvement and honesty. Client reviews single out coaches Faisal and Ryan for personalized, functional strength training.
