Meet Archie Barrina
A coach who listens.
A plan that fits.
I’m Archie, a personal trainer and certified massage therapist in San Francisco. I start by listening: what you want to work toward, how your body feels, and what has made it hard to get there.
With a background in kinesiology, strength coaching, and bodywork, I help you understand how you move—not just what to do next. We’ll build around your starting point, your comfort, and your goals.

Your questions, answered.
Do I need experience to start?
No. You don’t need to get fit before you start. Whether you’re new to the gym or finding your routine again, Archie begins with your goals and a movement assessment, then adapts the coaching to your experience.
How does the free consultation work?
Choose a time in Square for your free, 60-minute in-person consultation. Talk through your goals, complete a movement assessment, and discuss training options with Archie. Your confirmation includes your appointment details and location.
Can I book just a massage?
Yes—there’s no need to be a training client. Book sports massage on its own for attention to everyday muscle tension or post-workout soreness. Square shows your appointment options, prices, and policies before you confirm.
Can I train with a partner?
Yes. Train together while getting coaching adapted to each of you. Bring your goals and scheduling questions to your consultation so you can discuss whether partner training is a good fit.
Where do sessions happen?
Personal training takes place at 2863 California St, San Francisco, CA 94115. Sports massage takes place at 1825 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94103. Check your appointment confirmation before your visit.

Build a plan with ArchieHow we estimate your needs
Maintenance energy uses the 2023 Dietary Reference Intake equations, based on age, height, weight, activity, and sex. This model may not capture your individual physiology.
Weight-loss and muscle-building estimates adjust maintenance by 10%, capped at 300 calories per day. These are general starting points, not personalized prescriptions. Macros use 20% protein, 30% fat, and 50% carbohydrate. Values are rounded.
This tool is not for minors, pregnancy, breastfeeding, eating-disorder concerns, or specialized nutrition needs. It does not produce weight-loss targets below 1,500 calories or when adult BMI is below 18.5; these are calculator limits, not a diagnosis or a universal calorie minimum.
