"The BEST Coach Around!!"
If you need to reach your goals, look no further. Online programs are just as great as his one-on-one! Top-tier!
Peter WILL push you & you may not like it but you WILL be praising his work when you meet that goal! TRUST your coach to know exactly what you need, and Peter knows just that!
Do yourself a favor and reach out to him!

"Very Professional & Well Educated"
Been training with Peter for years now, not only have I gained a coach but a long lasting friend. Since I met Peter, he's always been very professional & well educated.
No matter the question, he always had a thorough answer & explanation. Everything I know about fitness I give credit to him. He's helped me make fitness an important part of my life. He's also been very patient and understanding with my lung condition.
Pushes me to my limit but never to the point where I can get injured. Also... he's pretty cool vibes 😎 100/10 recommend!

"Completely Transformed My Life"
Throughout my life, I have struggled with being overweight. In 2016, I realized that if I didn't change my lifestyle, my health would only deteriorate further. That’s when I met Peter, who had just begun his own training journey.
He completely transformed my life! He helped me achieve my weight loss goals and taught me how to use the gym equipment safely. Most importantly, he introduced me to the love of the barbell. I never thought I would find such passion in power-lifting! He helped me win my first competition in my weight class, and it will always be one of my favorite core memories.
Peter taught me to love my body and feel confident while embracing a healthy lifestyle. I wouldn't be who I am today without him.

"Tailors Each Session to Help Me Reach My Goals"
Peter is an exceptional personal trainer who combines skill, humor, and genuine care to create a fantastic training experience. He listens attentively to any concerns and tailors each session to help me reach my goals effectively.
Under his guidance, I saw amazing results that I couldn’t have achieved alone. Not only is he knowledgeable, but he also brings fun and positivity to each session, making workouts something to look forward to.
Keep up the amazing work, coach Peter!

Peter Pires
Powerlifting Coach

Squat: 654.5LB
Bench: 401.5LB
Deadlift: 649LB
Total: 1705LB
My name is Peter Pires, founder and coach of the Potential Viribus Team. My vision in building this business is to create a team of coaches that provide an exceptional, candid, and professional experience to dedicated athletes in their specific endeavors.
My lifting career began early on. Initially, I was lifting to become a bigger and stronger athlete, but I soon noticed my affinity for strength overall. Throughout high school, I pursued this natural talent until discovering powerlifting in 2015. I competed for the first time a year later. Since committing to the sport, I've participated in over 10 competitions, including USAPL Nationals in Las Vegas in 2022.
My passion for coaching grew through my personal training experience but was honed under the mentorship of my coach, Marcellus Williams. Under his guidance, I began slowly taking on more athletes to develop my own methodologies and style, eventually making my way onto his Coach Recommendation List.
I have two main goals in the sport: to be a top-tier athlete and a top-tier coach. Very few can pull off both. I intend to be one of the few.

Powerlifting Coach

My name is Keith Hubbard (also known as "Kee"). I am a coach with Potentia Viribus. My goal is to help guide people in the right direction regarding strength and health, regardless of their background, race, creed, color, or religion.
Additionally, I aim to help our team become one of the best in the nation.
I've competed in two powerlifting national events since starting powerlifting in 2020, and my hunger as a competitor continues to grow.
As an Army combat veteran and currently a licensed therapeutic professional in the rehab field, I am more than comfortable working with all ages and levels within the health and fitness realm.
Gus Rodriguez
Powerlifting Coach

Squat: 550LB
Bench: 302.5LB
Deadlift: 583LB
Total: 1435.5LB
I'm Gus Rodriguez, Co-Coach at Potentia Viribus. I've been in athletics pretty much my entire life, playing baseball from the age of 5 until my senior year in high school. I started my senior year hoping to play college baseball, but my love for the sport slowly faded as I discovered the weight room and strength training.
My powerlifting background began in 2016 when I competed in my first competition, but my love for the sport stems all the way back to 2014 when I first stepped foot in the gym. Since then, I've competed in 12 competitions and dedicated a significant portion of my life to learning as much as possible about strength and nutrition.
My main focus is to aid as many athletes as possible in improving their performance, whether they're beginners or at an advanced level.
