Knockout Fitness is the creation of Frank Wood. Frank has been active in the sport of boxing since 1991, when he began his amateur career through the United States Amateur Boxing Association. Trying to find a way to maintain the rigorous training and competition schedule of a boxer, Frank decided to open his own gym and offer his training regiment to the public.

In 1995, Knockout Fitness was created. Knockout Fitness had modest beginnings, starting in the basement of a rental house with limited equipment. But the demand for Frank's workout grew, as did his boxing career. In 1996 he turned professional and moved his operation to a larger facility. Still active in the heavyweight/cruiserweight division, Frank has traveled throughout the US and internationally and holds a 20-3 record with 15
KO's.

Knockout Fitness has grown into a 3,000 square foot fully equipped boxing gym in downtown Nashville. Some of boxing's greats have trained at Knockout Fitness including Felix Trindad and Oliver McCall.

Richard Goodloe joined Knockout Fitness in 2003 and works part time as a personal trainer and assistant to Frank Wood. Richard has over 10 years of experience in fitness including specialty training in boxing, kickboxing and Wing-Chun. This former member of the United States Navy is also certified in reflexology and related therapies.
