The founder · Thrivr
Before he became a coach, he experienced the demands of performance firsthand. From competitive boxing to a decade of coaching people across every fitness level, Shubham brings together lived experience, coaching expertise and sports science.
Shubham Vashist
Strength is a habit, not a mood. You don't find your best self. You train it. Your body remembers every session you show up for.
Three perspectives
Each one shapes how he trains people. Together, they are one way of coaching.
Understands discipline, resilience and the demands of competitive performance.
A competitive boxer at international level, Shubham knows what it takes to prepare, perform under pressure and recover to go again. He also holds a black belt in karate. That respect for preparation is built into every plan.
Over a decade of helping athletes and everyday people build strength, improve movement and achieve meaningful progress.
From people new to the gym to athletes, in person and online. He has led coaching teams, set the standards for how sessions are run, and built the progress systems that keep people training.
Combines evidence-based strength and conditioning with sports science, movement assessment and individualised programme design.
ACE and NASM certified, trained in movement assessment and performance testing, and studying sport and exercise science with research at Symbiosis School of Sports Sciences.

How Shubham coaches
Nobody is thrown into a programme they are not ready for.
Movement quality and readiness come first. Training intensity should match the individual's current capacity.
Your plan fits you — not the other way round.
Training should fit people's schedules, energy, lifestyle and available equipment.
Capacity you keep for decades, not weeks.
Progressive, evidence-based programming that develops capacity while respecting recovery and movement quality.
No shortcuts, no gimmicks.
Track meaningful progress through assessments, real numbers and regular programme adjustments.
The journey
01
Competitive boxing at international level. Where discipline, resilience and physical preparation stopped being ideas and became habits.
“Composure is a muscle. Train it.”
02
Coaching individuals and athletes on the gym floor — strength, conditioning and boxing — and learning what actually works for real people.
“Meet people where they are. Then walk them forward.”
03
ACE and NASM certifications, strength and conditioning expertise, and continued study in sport and exercise science.
“Evidence over ego.”
04
Head coach: leading coaching teams, setting session standards and building structured systems for training and progress.
“High standards, held with care.”
05
Building Thrivr to make personalised, science-led coaching accessible to more people, wherever they are.
“Train for the person you’ll be at sixty.”
