INTRODUCING

Chato

About

Coach Chato Martinez has been boxing since 1987, when he started in San Jose under California Boxing Hall of Fame trainer Renato Garcia. He later turned professional at 24, building a 5-0 record before stepping away from the sport.

Years later, after gaining weight and developing high cholesterol, Chato went back to what he knew. He returned to the gym, lost 68 pounds in 12 weeks, and stepped back into the ring for a televised fight.

That experience changed the direction of his career. Chato went on to earn master-level certifications in sports nutrition, strength and conditioning, and personal training before beginning to coach in 2012. Since then, fighters under his guidance have reached major stages including HBO and Showtime, including an underdog knockout victory on Showtime in 2023.

MISSION

Our mission is to use boxing to help people become stronger, more disciplined, and more confident, whether they come here to compete, get in shape, or simply find a positive outlet.

That means real training, honest coaching, and meeting people where they are. A first-time beginner working toward better health deserves the same attention and respect as a fighter preparing to step into the ring.

Whatever brings you through the door, our job is to push you, support you, and help you go further than you thought you could.

approach

What sets this gym apart is simple: the coach trains beside you. Chato is known around the city for running alongside his fighters in a sauna suit, because running is as much a mental battle as a physical one and nobody should have to face it alone.

That same standard runs through everything, from one-on-one work on the mitts to the run group that pushes each other at night. You get a coach who does the work with you, not one who watches from the corner.
