Ahn Won-cheol

• For those preparing for a marathon or HYROX race who don't know where to start
• For those who love running but feel their times aren't improving because of weak lower-body strength
• For those who never know how hard to train, so it's always too easy or too hard
• Those who want to steadily maintain, in daily life, the fitness that declines with age

Sessions combine lower-body strength, single-leg hip stability, and shoulder mobility work with aerobic exercise, adjusting intensity to how you feel that day. Guided by the principle 'move well, move often,' they widen your everyday movement.

Manager Ahn Won-cheol studied sports medicine at Korea University's graduate school and is also a runner who finished the full course of the 2025 Seoul Dong-A Marathon in 3:28:41.

At PAFGYM, the first three sessions focus on consultation and assessment rather than jumping straight into exercise. We check your body composition with InBody, review your movement through basic exercises, and look at your endurance to set your starting point together. Manager Ahn Won-cheol looks especially closely at the endurance assessment results, and if you have a running or race goal, he sets the balance of strength and cardio to match it.
