Loren Koehler brings Wild Iron Fitness gym to Yorktown. Situated at 120 S. Church St., the gym is housed in a striking metal corrugated building characterized by its bold black minimalist façade, which gives the gym an imposing appearance. Upon stepping inside, trainees are enveloped by Nirvana's Dave Grohl’s powerful drums and the deep, resonant bass of Krist Novoselic. This dynamic auditory backdrop complements the gym's mission, creating an inspiring environment where individuals can focus on forging their muscles and building strength.
Born in Yorktown and graduating from Yorktown High School, Koehler went on to the University of Texas San Antonio (UTSA) and received a Bachelor of Science in kinesiology. Following that, he explored various options.
'I worked at several boutique gyms, focusing on one-on-one training for athletic performance and sports training. From there, I transitioned into boot camp training and even trained some clients out of my garage,” he said.
