About the Gym

Stuart Bryant – Head Coach & Founder, Commando Factory

I’m Stuart, founder and head coach here at Commando Factory.

My journey started in the Royal Marines, where I learned the value of discipline, resilience, and pushing beyond limits. That experience didn't just shape me physically — it laid the foundation for everything I teach today. Commando Factory isn’t just a gym; it’s a space where we train hard, build strong bodies and stronger minds, and support one another through every battle life throws our way.

After the military, I made it my mission to help others through fitness — not just to get in shape, but to take control of their lives. With industry-leading strength and conditioning qualifications, years of coaching experience, and a relentless work ethic, I’ve built a system that works for real people. Whether you're training for performance, rebuilding after setbacks, or just trying to become the best version of yourself — I’m here for it.

Beyond the gym walls, I’m dedicated to giving back. I’ve built a strong community around Commando Factory that supports physical and mental recovery, especially for those who’ve faced adversity — veterans, first responders, and everyday people finding strength through training. From mentoring young lads to creating safe spaces for personal development, this gym is about more than reps and sets. It’s about rebuilding lives.

At Commando Factory, we don’t settle. We show up, graft hard, and grow together. If you’re ready to put in the work, I’ll meet you there.
