Description
About the sculpture
Colossus is a monumental steel figure created as a tribute to strength, discipline, and focus. Designed in a polygonal style, it reflects true human proportions and radiates a powerful presence. We dedicated 12 months to designing and refining every detail so that the piece combines both artistic character and technical precision.
What it represents
Not every gym can have Colossus. Our vision is that only the top 20% of clubs that meet the standards of a professional sports facility gain the opportunity to hold this sculpture. Colossus is a visible symbol that your club is recognized as a place operating at the highest level and belonging among the very best.
About the GFV project
GFV (Gym Factory Verified) is our new international system designed to distinguish professional gyms from ordinary ones and create a global mark of quality.
Our mission is to provide gyms with prestige and status while giving athletes greater confidence when choosing the right place to train.
The system and the map
We are currently developing the GFV platform with an interactive map. It will display all gyms that meet the certification criteria. Our goal is to make the system convenient for everyone – for clubs that want to present themselves, and for athletes searching for the best places to train. Each club will have its own account and be able to upload photos, descriptions, pricing, and other information. Athletes will be able to quickly discover high-quality gyms nearby using the interactive map.
Benefits for athletes
By using the GFV platform, athletes will receive:
• An interactive map with clearly marked certified gyms,
• Transparent and reliable information about services, prices, facilities, and photos,
• Saved time and assurance that a gym meets established standards – both in their own city and when traveling abroad.
Benefits for gyms
GFV offers gyms more than just recognition:
• Competitive advantage that helps stand out from other clubs,
• Long-term reputation – a status that builds trust over the years,
• Global visibility through the interactive system and map,
• Full control – the ability to manage your own profile, information, and content,
• Community membership – connection to an international network of gyms,
• A mark of trust that demonstrates your quality and sets you apart from competitors.
Applied criteria
To be accepted into the GFV system and receive certification, gyms must meet clear, measurable, and uniform requirements applied equally to all. The main criteria include:
• Adequate training area and logical layout,
• The required quantity of strength and cardio equipment,,
• The required number of lockers, showers, and other amenities,
• A clean, orderly environment with proper conditions,
• A professional atmosphere for athletes.
Every club wishing to qualify will be provided with a clear list of criteria. This not only ensures fair and consistent evaluation but also helps gyms better understand their strengths and areas for improvement.
Ensuring transparency
To prevent conflicts of interest, the GFV system incorporates clear mechanisms that guarantee independent evaluation:
• Independent experts – all assessments are carried out by external specialists not linked to equipment or sales,
• Separate GFV team – decisions are made by a dedicated unit, fully independent from manufacturing and commercial activities,
• Public criteria – requirements are clearly defined and applied equally to every gym,
• Objective process – no equipment manufacturer or supplier can influence the results.
This guarantees that all gyms are evaluated equally and without exception.
