STEFAN OVERGAARD

Owner

Lead Personal Trainer

Stefan has been in the fitness industry since 2003. As a former member of the Canada Alpine Ski Team, he knows what it takes to make it to the top levels in sport. In addition to competing all over the world, Stefan had the privilege to learn from some of the best coaches first hand on what goes into building great athletes in gym.

When Stefan hung up his skis, he decided to shift his passion into the fitness industry and use his experience in competitive sport and expertise in training to start up SXS Fitness. What started as a one man show out of the back of an old Jeep out traveling all over the GTA has evolved into a fully outfitted fitness centre and sports medicine clinic with an incredible team of coaches and practitioners.

Stefan is still very much on ‘the gym floor’ training clients many of which he’s had for over a decade and still going strong. One of his biggest passions is showing people that you can push yourself to limits you thought were too much, and get results that were out of reach before, ALL while having fun and really enjoying the journey!

Hobbies include skiing, basketball, tennis, croquet, playing with his amazing wife and kids, getting worked out (and crushed) by the incredible coaches he works with, enjoying cold beer and great wine with family and friends. Work hard and play hard as long as you have balance.
