Meet Coach Rob

Rhino Den was built on one belief: every athlete who walks through the door deserves the highest level of training available, competitive or not. We do not just build strength for the upcoming season — we build strength for life.

Coach Rob knows the athletes by name, knows their sports, and knows what their schedule looks like in March. That is the difference between a gym and a club.

Parents and athletes

What families say

Rob working with my son at Rhino Den has been a transformative experience. His expertise not only bolstered his confidence but also significantly enhanced his strength and preparedness. The tailored approach and unwavering support helped him achieve goals I once thought were out of reach.
Steve DeStefanoRhino Den parent
Coach Rob has been instrumental with both of my boys as they are just beginning to play sports. He has built a good foundation for them where they have started to gain real athletic skills. He is passionate, encouraging, and strong — I have also seen an increase in my son's confidence.
Brenda, Jared, Logan and Griffin NoordykRhino Den family
As a personal trainer and coach, I've worked with many athletes over the years, and I can honestly say Rhino Den is one of the best programs I've ever seen. In just under a month we've already seen remarkable improvements in both our daughter and son.

Questions

Before your first session

What age do athletes start at Rhino Den?
Athletes start as young as 4 in our Fun House Fitness block, with full athlete training tracks for middle school, high school, college and adult athletes.
Do I need to play a sport to train here?
No. Competitive and non-competitive athletes train side by side. The goal is strength for sport and strength for everyday life.
How often should an athlete train?
In-season athletes do well with 2–3 sessions per month to hold their gains. Off-season athletes building speed and strength usually train 2–3 times per week on our all-access track.
Where is Rhino Den located?
We train out of 11 Stewart Place, Fairfield, NJ 07004, minutes from Cedar Grove, Verona, Caldwell and Montclair.
What happens at a first session?
You will be screened for movement quality, taught the warm-up, and coached through a full training session at your level. Nothing is thrown at an athlete before they are ready for it.
Do you train full teams?
Yes. Team training is programmed around your season calendar and priced by roster size. Reach out through the contact form to start the conversation.
