It´s our mission to improve lives.

This isn’t just a gym – it’s a place where people come to change. Becoming stronger here will strengthen you as a person.  Through structured strength training, muay thai, judo, callisthenics, fitness and other focused coaching, we help to build a more disciplined, resilient and capable you.

You’re not just lifting weights or learning to fight. You’re developing the mental toughness to show up when life gets hard. The confidence that no one else can give you. The clarity to make decisions under pressure and avoid burnout.  And the courage to raise your standards – in the gym, and in life.

Rob Blair Commando Temple

Founded by Rob Blair

Rob Blair created Commando Temple with a simple mission: help people raise their standards and live better lives through world class training programmes.

A former Royal Marines Commando, Rob built this gym on values that matter – discipline, grit, and long-term growth. He’s combined military experience with proven systems from powerlifting, calisthenics, strongman, gymnastics, movement flow and martial arts – everything tested in real life, not theory.

“F* average” isn’t a motto. It’s a challenge. One we take seriously.

This is a place for people who want to make the most of their life – and have the body and mind to go far with it.
