Let's Train Together
Led by Constantinos Pallikaris, CrossFit L3 and endurance coach, Matrix combines over a decade of running and strength coaching to help you reach your full potential.
Running has always been a passion of mine. As an athlete, I focused on the 400m from my teenage years until my early 20s.
My deep interest for exercise, sports and fitness, led me to study at the Department of Physical Education and Sport Science at the University of Athens, laying the foundation for my upcoming professional journey.
From my 30s onward, I transitioned to long-distance running, which continues to inspire me to this day.
At the same time, I sought a training method that would improve overall fitness, which led me to CrossFit. In 2012, I opened my own CrossFit gym in Peristeri, Athens. Since then, I have been dedicated to coaching both long-distance running and CrossFit, helping athletes achieve their full potential in both disciplines.
Matrix is my effort to create a more comprehensive training experience, built on dedication and the true spirit of running.
