Meet your coach

Coached by
experience.

I’m Patient Cena, known as The Rhino. Born in the Democratic Republic of Congo, I spent ten years in Bangkok before moving to Canada. I’ve competed and coached internationally, working across cultures, languages and fitness levels.

I finished 3rd in the world at the 2026 Static Monsters World Championships in Phoenix, Arizona, after qualifying 1st in Canada, representing Congo and Canada. My background spans powerlifting, strongman and CrossFit. I’ve coached beginners, competitive athletes and other coaches. That experience helps me break down complex movements and find cues that make sense to you.

My own experience training after two slipped discs in 2016 also shaped my respect for thoughtful progression. Your sessions begin with your starting point, goals and abilities.

The value of individual coaching

Your goals.
Our focus.

01 / DIRECTION

A plan around your goals

Train with a clear purpose, whether you’re learning to lift, building strength or preparing for a performance goal.

02 / PRECISION

Feedback in the moment

Develop breathing, bracing and movement control with a coach watching your technique and explaining adjustments.

03 / CONFIDENCE

Challenge at your level

Build consistency and confidence through sessions that meet your current ability and give you room to progress.

Competition experience

Tested on the platform.
Applied to your training.

Competition has taught me the value of preparation, execution and patience. You don’t need to compete to benefit from those lessons.
