Josh Lemoine
I’m a strength and performance coach with over a decade of hands-on experience in strength training and athletic development. I was the 2016 Canadian National Champion in Powerlifting (U23) and recently took first place at my local strongman competition. I refined my craft under some of Canada’s top powerlifters at Dynamo Barbell, which at the time was considered the strongest gym in Canada. It was there that I built a foundation rooted in precision, discipline, and long-term development.
I continue to grow at 3 Tonnes Gym in Gatineau, where I train alongside seasoned strongman professionals and learn directly from the best in the field.
Recently, I spent five years working in a large commercial gym, where while coaching clients I managed the education and on-boarding for a team of Personal Trainers. I was the top Personal Training enabler across Ottawa, Kingston, and Belleville in 2023—helping more people begin their fitness journey than anyone else in the region. That experience cemented my passion for guiding others toward real, lasting change.
Outside the gym, I’m an active runner, HYROX competitor, rock and ice climber, and mountaineer—currently completing the final peaks of the Adirondack 46 High Peaks. I specialize in helping endurance athletes, climbers and outdoor adventurers build the strength, mobility, and resilience they need to keep doing what they love.
My coaching philosophy is holistic, sustainable, and rooted in real-world performance. Whether you’re chasing finish lines, climbing summits, sending a big wall, or just want to move through life stronger and more confidently—I’ll meet you where you’re at and coach you forward.

“Working with Josh has completely transformed my approach to fitness. I started training with him in my 40s with little to no experience, and now I’ve not only built confidence in the gym but I’m also competing in HYROX races and triathlons. Josh helped me discover a love for strength training I never knew I had. His knowledge, programs, and encouragement have been truly life-changing.”
