Bobby Lashley came to prominence in the Pro Wrestling world while working for such promotions as WWE, ECW, Raw, and TNA Wrestling. Lashley was a fan favorite in all the promotions because of his size, charisma and athletic ability. In 2008 Lashley made his professional MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) debut. He burst onto the MMA scene using his unmatched wrestling skills to dominate his first five opponents with four being finished in the first round. Lashley has committed himself fully to his MMA training. To date Bobby Lashley has amassed an impressive 7-1 record in the world’s fastest growing sport and is currently the Shark Fights Heavyweight Champion.
In March 2010 Bobby Lashley announced the grand opening of his first gym,American Top Team Altitude, an affiliate of one of the most prominent MMA gyms in the United States, American Top Team. “This is my dream,” Bobby said, “I’ve always wanted to open a gym. I have a degree in recreation management, I have a degree in business management, so putting those together is opening up a gym.” The gym enjoyed great success as a provider of top-notch fitness programs for the entire family. ATT Altitude is a full service gym that offers various classes such as cardio kickboxing, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, No-Gi grappling, boxing, cardio boxing, total body conditioning, kettle bell training and more. The classes are available for the entire family. Adults, children and teens all have options to choose from.
The trainers at ATT Altitude are extremely knowledgeable with varied backgrounds. They range from several professional athletes to a crossfit trainer and a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt. The classes are designed to help any person, at any fitness level, meet their health goals.
Mixed Martial Arts training has become a preferred training method for people searching for a multitude of results. NFL players are now training MMA in the off-season. MMA training methods have also been featured on the television show The Biggest Loser. Because of this, the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship), the number one MMA fight promotion in the world, has begun opening a chain of fitness centers focused on MMA classes for the entire family. These gyms are not fighter camps they are focused strictly on the average person who is interested in the training to meet their personal fitness goals.
Bobby Lashley opened his ATT Altitude gym to bring advanced and effective training methods to anyone looking to reach their fitness goals. Due to the success of his first gym, Lashley has now moved his gym to a new 20,000 square foot facility in Aurora. The new ATT Altitude gym features even more great classes and affordable prices for the entire family. Adult and kids programs and even a daycare will be present to meet the needs of any family looking to train at the facility. “I’m gonna find a way that I can have every kid that wants to train at this gym, train at this gym,” Bobby has said. The gym also features a supplement shop and pro shop where clothing and training equipment is available for purchase. ATT Altitude is the largest MMA gym in Aurora, maybe the largest in Colorado.
Residents of Aurora have benefited from Mr. Lashley’s efforts to bring unparalleled training to the average person looking to improve. Now they will have the chance to do this at an even bigger and better facility.
ATT Altitude is also a phenomenal facility for any fighter looking for a place to train, and anyone interested in getting into the world of MMA. “What I’d like to do is build a strong Colorado (fight) team and bring in guys from other states to fight against our guys.” Bobby continues, “We’d like to get some fighters and take care of them. Get them on some fight cards. Let them get some amateur fights, build them up to pro, and keep going higher, and we don’t want to let them go. We are going to treat them right and produce some stars.” Bobby Lashley’s LMG (Lashley Management Group) brand has successfully put on four fighting events in Aurora featuring up-and-coming Colorado fighters.
Lastly, to the masses of people who are still unfamiliar with the world’s fastest growing sport, Bobby says, “The one thing I think is great about MMA is that it’s a learning process. A lot of times when people see it on TV, they’re like ‘ah, its just two guys standing and brawling’. That’s completely not what it is. MMA has almost turned into a chess match. The one thing you should take away from your sport is discipline.” Lashley is happy in the fact that his gym and his trainers have been able to bring discipline to several Aurora youths through his fitness programs.
American Top Team Altitude is located at the northeast corner of Peoria & Mississippi 12455 E. Mississippi Ave # 101 Aurora, CO
