A quick look at the training and technique that define Chicago Fight House:
Practice What You Preach
Lou doesn’t just coach fitness, he lives it. Strength training, conditioning and endurance are part of his own routine, and he brings that same standard to every student. He even coaches running, nutrition and strength when it serves a student’s goal: one client went from barely running to finishing a half-marathon under his guidance, and Lou has put in that same work himself.
From the Ring to the Park
Lou trains amateur and white-collar boxers at Independence Park in Chicago. Below, Lou stands with amateur fighter Oliver Stephens after winning his first boxing competition.
