Dover, DelawareYou got motivated, joined a gym, and hit a wall — too much equipment, no real plan, nobody checking in. Anew coaches you through all of it: what to do, how to do it, and why it's working.
Most people don't fail at fitness because they lack motivation. They show up — then get lost. Too much equipment, no real plan, nobody checking in on Tuesday when it's easier to skip. That's the gap Anew fills.
A plan built around you, not a template Coaching on every rep, every session Modifications for injuries and limitations Nutrition guidance that fits real life Accountability that keeps you showing up
Every program we run — group, semi-private, or online — is coached through the same four-part framework.
Building more movement into daily life, not just the hour you spend with us.
Guidance that fits your actual schedule, preferences, and goals — not a generic meal plan.
Programming with real progression session to session, not random workouts.
Sleep, stress, and recovery — because results happen outside the gym too.
We believe in evidence over trends, that every body deserves coaching, progress over perfection, and community without intimidation.
For me, fitness has always been about more than what you see in the mirror. It's about building strength, developing confidence, and becoming someone you're proud of.
I'm Zach Childress, founder and head coach of Anew Training. For over six years, I've dedicated myself to creating a training environment where people receive the coaching, accountability, and personal attention they deserve.
My approach to fitness is built around a simple belief: strength changes lives.
Whether you're stepping into the gym for the first time, trying to build muscle, lose body fat, or become a better athlete, I believe everyone deserves a training experience tailored to their individual goals.
As a coach, I'm passionate about the science of exercise, nutrition, and helping people discover what their bodies are truly capable of. But I've also learned that lasting transformations require more than a great workout. They require consistency, healthy habits, and a support system that genuinely cares about your success.
That's why I created Anew Training. I wanted to build something different from the traditional gym — a place where you're not just another membership, where your coach knows your name, and where your progress matters.
Outside of coaching, I'm a husband, father, and athlete who continues to challenge himself, learn, and grow. I believe in practicing what I preach and showing my clients that fitness isn't something you achieve once. It's a lifelong pursuit.
My mission is simple: help you build a stronger body, a healthier mindset, and a life you're excited to live.
Every format is coached, adjusted, and tracked by a real person — never a plan you're left to figure out alone.
Personal coaching without the personal-training price.
Small groups, capped low, with a coach adjusting your form and your plan every session — not a class instructor keeping time from the front of the room. Walk in with a plan, leave feeling accomplished.
Sessions run about 55 minutes and include training-app access plus calorie and macro guidance.
Your goals. Your coach. Your plan.
One-on-one or two-on-one coaching, built entirely around you — an old injury, a specific goal, or a schedule a group time won't fit. Train 2 or 3 days a week with the same dedicated coach.
Coaching that goes where you go.
Custom programming, form checks, and regular coach check-ins from wherever you are. Also home to Strong on GLP-1 — programming built to help you retain muscle while losing weight on GLP-1 medication.
5.0 stars across 20 Google reviews — here's some of what members say.
"A warm, welcoming environment that's not always easy to find."
This member has seen real changes in both physical and mental health since starting at Anew — crediting the small-group classes for combining real community with one-on-one coaching from Zach.
"Feels more like a family rather than a meat market."
After starting personal training with Zach, this member lost 18.5 pounds working through routines built around their actual body and goals — a real shift after years of a difficult relationship with working out.
"I found my team here."
A recently retired college athlete was nervous about training solo after years of team lifts. The coaching at Anew helped them understand not just how to do a movement, but why they're doing it.
Whoever you are and wherever you're starting, there's a plan built for you.

No long contracts, no guessing which program fits — we figure that out with you, first.
Reach out by phone, email, or the form below and grab a spot in a session or a quick consult call — no commitment required.
We talk through your goals, your schedule, and anything we should know — old injuries, past training, what's worked and what hasn't.
Walk into a program actually built for you — small group, semi-private, or online — with a coach who's already in your corner.
The things people usually ask before their first session.
No — most members walk in with zero experience. We ask about your health and injury history up front, then build your plan and teach you everything from there.
Tell us before your first session. We coach around injuries and limitations instead of ignoring them — that's part of the plan, not an exception to it.
No. Everything at Anew runs month-to-month — cancel anytime.
For Small Group, cancel at least 2 hours ahead or a $15 late-cancel fee applies. For Semi-Private, we'll do our best to reschedule you when a spot opens, though it isn't always guaranteed.
Pricing depends on the program and how often you train. Reach out and we'll walk you through what fits your goals — no pressure, no surprises.
Small Group puts you in a capped, coached class. Semi-Private is one-on-one or two-on-one time built entirely around you. Online gives you the same coaching and programming from wherever you are. All three run on the same ANEW Method.
Reach out and we'll set up your free trial session at the studio in Dover — or answer any questions first. Pricing is easy: just ask, we'll walk you through it.
