Build Strength. Build Muscle. Feel Athletic Again.
A number of your Harvard neighbors already train at OTB — just a short drive over to Ayer. Semi-private coaching, your own program, and Kyle coaching every workout. Max four to a session.
Harvard's a small town without a real coaching gym — so most people end up at a big-box where nobody knows their name or their bad shoulder. OTB is the opposite of that: a small room, a real coach, and a program built around the exact body you walk in with.
We already coach several members from Harvard, and the story's the same every time — they were strong once, life got in the way, and they needed someone paying attention again. With max 4 per session, you're coached on every rep, not left to wander between machines.
Built around your body, your history, and your goals — never a shared template off a screen.
Every session, the owner — not a rotating junior trainer. 20,000+ hours on the floor.
Real attention and hands-on cueing on every rep. You're never lost in a crowd of 25.
Post-rehab specialist coaching. We train around your bad back or knee, not through it.
OTB is at 12 Central Ave in Ayer — roughly a 12-minute drive from Harvard. Free parking right outside. Morning sessions Mon–Fri 5 AM–1 PM and Sat 6–11 AM.

I have 3 babies — the youngest 7 months — and didn't think I'd ever get back to where I wanted. In 4 weeks I'm down 3 inches. He tailors everything to your needs and makes it fun. Best trainer around!
Jessica P. · HarvardI started as a complete beginner to weightlifting and it was the best decision I made for my health. As a busy professional I didn't think I had the time — Kyle built me a realistic, sustainable program. If you work 9-to-5 and want to finally learn to lift, he's the trainer you need.
Bryan F. · HarvardAbout a 10- to 15-minute drive (7–8 miles) — we're at 12 Central Ave in Ayer, with free parking right outside. Several of our members come from Harvard each week.
For genuine, owner-coached strength training, yes — OTB is the closest serious option to Harvard, about 10 minutes away in Ayer.
Morning sessions only: Monday–Friday 5 AM–1 PM, Saturday 6–11 AM, closed Sunday. If you're an early riser who wants to train before the day takes over, it's a perfect fit.
That's exactly who this is built for. Every client starts with a movement screen, and Kyle is a post-rehab specialist — we train around your history, not through it.
OTB is premium, fully individualized, owner-coached strength coaching — not a big-box membership. We'll walk through the investment together at your in-person consult.
Train with me for two full weeks. If you don't feel stronger, more confident, and more capable than when you walked in, I refund every dollar. No questions, no fine print.
We coach members who drive in from across the area: Shirley, Groton, Lunenburg, Littleton.
