Cade Dillon

Strength & Conditioning Coach | Movement Specialist

Cade has always been drawn to the pursuit of strength. He spent nearly a decade immersed in the world of bodybuilding and powerlifting, finding joy in the discipline and structure of traditional weight training. But when the pandemic forced gyms to close, Cade’s training took a new direction. Armed with a copy of Overcoming Gravity and a pull-up bar, he began exploring calisthenics—first out of necessity, then out of passion. What started as push-ups and pull-ups in a small apartment evolved into a deep commitment to bodyweight mastery.

Today, Cade’s training focuses on progressions for the one-arm handstand, handstand
pushups, gymnastic strength elements on rings, and a wide variety of flexibility movements.
His style blends progressive strength principles with the playful, intuitive movement often
found in yoga and dance—training not just for aesthetics or performance, but for connection
and longevity.

Cade served five years in the Marine Corps, where he learned the value of consistency,
mentorship, and grit. As a sergeant, he was responsible for training and leading
Marines—an experience that now informs his calm, structured, and empathetic coaching
style. He’s also a graduate student at the University of Washington, where he teaches
computer science and mathematics, giving him a unique ability to break down complex
movements into approachable steps.

He believes that everyone’s body is capable and resilient. His mission is to help clients
build real strength through movement that is fun, sustainable, and grounded in deep respect for the body's capacity to grow.
