John has been my coach for over 1 year now and the conditioning and strength gains I have made have been unreal. He is extremely knowledgeable and gives great cueing and tips for techniques in person and with remote coaching. I am constantly making progress and improve in both technical skill and strength. He’s great at checking in on how you are doing and adapts the programs to what you have going on in live to help keep you consistent. He prioritizes slow consistent progress which helps keep you injury free. He coaches you hard but is understanding! All in all has made my time in strongman amazing so far!! 10/10

Highly recommend being trained by John Strachan (Johnny’s Powerhouse). Whatever your goals are, John will get you to them. He is very passionate about weight lifting and is a great teacher. John is also well-versed in rehab/mobility- so even if you have had a previous injury, he will guide you in the right direction towards painless lifting and increased range of motion. You will learn so much about the world of lifting, as well as yourself. I started training with him in the summer of 2021 and have made incredible progress in building strength. He also introduced me to the sport of Strongman, and I have been competing for over two years now. He sends me my workouts via google Docs every week, and is always available to answer any questions that I may have. I feel very lucky to have him as my coach.

If you want to get stronger, whether it’s for personal reasons or to train for a competition, then I highly recommend Johnny’s Powerhouse. John not only greatly improved my strength, but also my confidence while lifting. He helped me get past my mental barriers and taught me proper form and technique, all while making the process enjoyable as well!

I met Johnny two years ago through BOCES and he has helped me in countless ways in and out of the gym. I've only been officially working with him for less than a year but I have gotten so much stronger in every lift and feel much more confident and knowledgable in the gym. He helped me realize my passion with Strongman and helped me accomplish so much in the sport in such a short time. John is always there to help as well as make lifting enjoyable and bring a smile to your face no matter what. Anyone who is thinking about getting a coach whether for strength, weight loss, or injury rehab should absolutely join the Johnny's Powerhouse team.

John is one of the best trainers out there. He helps build your goals and workout program based on your strengths and weaknesses. He is attentive to past injuries and educated in physiology to help you out. John's equipped with great contacts in the community to get you connected with a chiropractor or a physiotherapist. John encourages you, teaches you recovery skills and helps you get to know your body strength like no other.

I started training with John after a serious soccer injury that left me using crutches. He rehabbed me back to walking, showed me my actual limits, and taught me how to know between discomfort and something to worry about. He’s a great accountability coach and caters to where you’re at to get you where you wanna be. I couldn’t recommend John any more. He’s definitely the best, most knowledgeable coach you can have!
