Meet Jerry Housey of Strong House Fitness in West Hollywood

Today we’d like to introduce you to Jerry Housey.

A former professional football player and a certified trainer, Jerry Housey founded Strong House Fitness in 2015. Born and raised in the Bronx, New York, Housey now runs SHF, a comprehensive fitness and training facility in the heart of Los Angeles. With degrees in international business and finance as well as an array of fitness certifications and years of experience as a professional athlete, Jerry has guided over 200 clients to reach their fitness goals through his high intensity, high energy workout style. From the gym novice to the professional athlete, Jerry is recognized for his ability to bring out the best in his clients.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Covid-19 has definitely been the biggest struggle for me thus far. It has held up a lot of things in the process of building a gym. It has slowed up the progress immensely.

Please tell us about Strong House Fitness.
SHF is the first Black-owned and Black-built private sports gym in Hollywood. The state-of-the-art facility stands out from traditional floor gyms with it’s high-energy, community-based approach to fitness. SHF is more than a gym, it’s a community that welcomes everyone from any background that wants to make a real change in their mental and physical condition. Every element of SHF — the music, the design, trainer attitudes — is meant to uplift and energize each client to commit to and reach their fitness goals. The culture is meant to cultivate a mindset of those willing to do the work. There is no secret to becoming the greatest version of yourself, it only takes discipline and consistency. If you can commit to showing up on SHF, then we commit to helping you find the will to build a better you. There’s no such thing as failure as long as you show up ready to work. SHF is here to support you, we won’t let you fail.
