OUR STORY
Gerry DeFilippo created Challenger Strength on the pure passion he has for strength and conditioning and personal fitness. Since he first lifted a weight with his father in their first home gym at the age of thirteen, Gerry has had an immense desire to continually evolve with his own training and knowledge to help others. After an ankle injury prematurely ended Gerry's college baseball career, he began to become more immersed in strength training and athletic performance. With the approval of his parents, he once again turned the new family basement into a weight room, and trained his friends who came to him for assistance. After years of interest and study in the field, Gerry became certified under the tutelage of Joe DeFranco and Jim Smith. He now works alongside his childhood physical therapist, athletic trainer and mentor Dr. Brady Blaszka, and has created Challenger Strength to live out his life passion in the strength and conditioning, athletic performance, and fitness industry.
