Specialty Training, Inc. was founded in 2002 by Darin Rell. As an Exercise Specialist at St. Luke’s Rehabilitation institute and the prior Fitness Director for Deaconess Medical Center, the core of the company has been focused on conditioning the body with proper form and conditioning. Specialty Training has been established as a leader in Personal Training, Post-Rehabilitation, and sport specific training programs for both adults and youth.
Whether you're coming back from an injury, looking to train for an up-coming event, or just looking for a gym to call home, we have many different options for you and your family to reach your full athletic potential.
With our gym membership you’ll have access to both of our Valley and Downtown locations. All members are supported by a professional training staff and will experience nothing but positive fitness comradery between staff and other members. We take care to never overcrowd the facilities with more members than can be comfortably accommodated to make sure your experience is a great one.
Every individual is unique, which means their training program should be as well. At Specialty Training, we will gauge your needs, goals, and limitations to develop the best workout program for you, and only you.
This course provides individuals an opportunity to learn the basic movements and concepts that are regularly performed in most strength and conditioning programs. The course is not considered a “workout” or “personal training”. We are teaching you how to use gym equipment appropriately without unnecessary risk of Injury. Depending on each individual, the course can last between 1 and 3 visits with an instructor and there can be 1-5 participants at each class. We highly encourage every member and client participate in the course. The one time fee covers all three classes.
Our goal is to get every young athlete into a year round “base” training program that has a minimum of 1 workout per week that can be scheduled around their current sport or activity.
Our younger athletes are instructed on the techniques of core weightlifting activates while using suspension training techniques instead of actual barbells and dumbbells. As they get into middle and high school, we begin implementing more advanced movements as each athlete becomes physically ready.
All team and sport specific training is solidified in periodization, meaning we have a year-round plan to make your athlete peak during the season when it really counts.
At Specialty Training, Inc. we train participants to be more than just ball players –we train them to be athletes. Our training programs are designed to set our students apart from their competition by emphasizing proper mechanics in movement, injury prevention, a positive mindset while identifying weakness/imbalances that limit performance.

In 2014 we established the Specialty Training Boxing Program. Our downtown facility has a designated boxing gym with a modified ring, heavy bags and speed bags. Our program is led by Danny Thomas, who holds a level 2 certification from USA Boxing. We currently have 8 sponsored fighters who fight competitively. In addition, we also offer programs for beginners, intermediate, and advanced athletes. A majority of our participants never plan on actually fighting in a ring. They value learning the skills of self defense while at the same time increasing strength and cardiovascular fitness.
We have two different locations in Spokane that each offer unique facilities. Our Downtown location offers 7000 square feet of useable space as well as a dedicated boxing studio complete with its own ring. Our new Spokane Valley location has full indoor training facilities that can accommodate year-round outdoor sports training.
