Strength and endurance in a group – with a system, for everyone 15 and up. In your fixed weekly slot, in Athletic Academy's own training space in Lachen.
There is no «not fit enough», no «too old», no «too untrained». Everyone starts with the basic movements and goes their own way – at their own pace, in the same group.
Never trained systematically? This is exactly what the training is built for. You learn the basic movements properly and build resilience step by step.
Trained before, paused for years? The patterns are still there. You move through the first levels faster, and where strength was lost, you rebuild it in an orderly way.
Muscle is your best ally: it burns energy, even at rest. Strength and endurance in fixed weekly slots give you the consistency that most weight-loss attempts lack.
From midlife on, the body loses muscle and bone density – unless you train against it. Strength, balance and endurance decide how independent your next decades will be.
Stronger, faster, fewer injuries: athletic training is the strength base for Sanda and the fight team – no more side programme needed.
Football, tennis, running, cycling, climbing: the first levels reveal where your sport is one-sided. Then you get stronger and more robust where it counts.
A gym gives you machines and a door pass. We give you a goal: being ready – for your sport, for everyday life, for the next decade. Athletic training builds the strength, mobility and endurance your body actually needs. Not better looks – better ability.
A machine guides the weight for you and trains one muscle – seated, guided, isolated. Life works differently: you lift boxes, carry groceries, climb stairs, catch yourself. Squatting, hinging, pushing and pulling train exactly these patterns – along with balance, trunk and the whole-body coordination no machine can take over. Strength built sitting at a machine stays at the machine. Strength from the basic movements comes with you – into your sport, your everyday life, and the decades in which it decides your independence.
Behind every session stands a system we have developed over years. You don't need to understand it to use it – but it helps to know why it works.
Six levels: in the first three you learn the movements properly, in the next three weight is added. Every level is solid before the next begins – no skipping, no shortcuts.
Squat, hinge, push, pull – all four in every session, plus trunk and endurance. No leg day or chest day: a whole body, every time.
From body weight, age and level, the system calculates your weight for every exercise – down to the plate. You check your phone, load the bar and train.
Both sides are trained individually – the weaker one catches up automatically. Calves, hips, shoulders, grip: the small muscles run along in the rest periods, without you having to think about it.
Move Well shows you move properly. Live Strong shows you are strong enough for sport and life. Both voluntary, both honest – your position, not a verdict. And every session lands in the app: you see your progress in black and white, any time.
Everyone trains the same session, but each person at their level and with their weight. A 16-year-old can stand next to a 60-year-old – and both are doing exactly the right thing.
The system is called ATHLETICON. It was developed by Zeno Streich, head of the Athletic Academy – built for the group, not the lab.
Without prior experience you start in the coached class; with experience, after an introduction, in the OpenClass. Both run in fixed weekly slots, and every session is prepared: your weights are calculated, your level is clear, your next step too. The only difference is who leads the session.
Group training, individually steered: everyone trains the same session, each person at their level and with their weight. The coach is on the floor, corrects technique and decides with you when you move up a level.
The same fixed training time, the same group – but here you run the training yourselves, together, each at your own level. The app supports you: QR check-in, your weights on your phone, your session step by step. Already know the squat, deadlift and press? Then an introduction session takes you into the system, and from then on you train in your OpenClass slot – with the coach behind you, never left on your own.
Alongside class and OpenClass you can book pure endurance sessions as a fixed slot – from day one, after a short introduction. You start with steady base endurance; intervals come as your training progresses. Self-run with app support, parallel to the classes – and included in the same fee.
Both formats run in fixed weekly slots with a fixed group. The only difference: who leads the session – the coach, or you yourself with the app.
Small group (3–6 people) and personal training (1:1) are available on request – more coaching time, the same system. Ask us at your trial session.
Two entries, one goal. You move up a level when your body is ready – not when the calendar says so. No skipping, no shortcuts – but visible progress.
Come by and train one session with us – free and with no strings attached. You see the training space, the group, the system. And together we see where you stand: that decides your path.
You choose your frequency and preferred time. From then on you have your place in the group – reliably, every week.
First you learn the basic movements properly, then weight is added. Every level is solid before the next begins.
Usually when you move to level 2: the coach clears you, and your slot becomes an OpenClass slot – if that's what you want.
With a coach: technique check at the bar, your starting level in the system, check-in and app.
You train in your fixed weekly slot – your session is prepared, your weights calculated, the spotter arms are set.
At least once a month a coach trains along in your slot; in between he sees every session in the app and gets in touch when a technique check or a new level is due.
Move Well and Live Strong show on both paths what you are ready for – voluntary, never an exam. And after Live Strong it doesn't end, it begins: you specialise your training in what you want – more performance for your sport, stronger, more enduring or more robust. Your coach plans the right module with you.
We set the fixed training slots around you: every sign-up tells us when they want to train – that's where the slots come from. And every person gets their fixed place.
Possible windows for the fixed slots – coached and OpenClass. The current slots sit within these windows; we open new ones as soon as there is demand – tell us your preferred time.
Why fixed slots? Because progress needs consistency – and because a fixed group is where «together» actually happens: the same people, the same coaches, every week.
As a club we don't do subscriptions – you become a member. One fee, no matter how often you train – the same as at Fight Academy: same club, same fee. Billed per semester: August–January and February–July.

| Students and apprentices | CHF 420 / semester | The same scope at a reduced fee – with valid ID. |
| Fight Academy members | + CHF 270 / semester | Your second discipline at half the fee: if you already train martial arts with us, Athletic Academy costs half on top (students and apprentices + CHF 210). |

Try Athletic Academy for the whole current semester – your combined fee only starts with the February semester. Sign up, do the introduction, get going.
The first trial session is always free and without obligation. You can join any time – your fee applies pro rata from when you start. No subscription, no notice period in the small print: you are a member of a club.
Individually tailored training with clear progress used to exist only in expensive 1:1 coaching. We bring it to the group – at a club fee, among people you know.
You train in a fixed group with people you know – just like on the mats. Nobody trains against anyone; everyone gets better together.
There is no «too weak», no «too old». Everyone starts where they are and goes their own way. From 15 to 80+ – the training adapts, not you.
You train with people who have been developing athletes for years – from the minis to the fight team. And with the person who built the system behind it.
