TIM COHEN

Tim, Founder + Co-Owner of Ethos, has built a career around a passion for fitness that extends far beyond the walls of the gym. Known for treating clients like family and for mixing tough love with relentless support, Tim has become a trusted coach to athletes at every level, from first-time lifters to professionals in the NHL and NFL.

Whether he’s preparing someone for a marathon or breaking down the mechanics of a deep squat, Tim is committed to understanding the why behind human performance. His coaching begins with a sharp eye for detail: how you stand, walk, squat, rotate - every movement tells a story. From the very first session, he focuses on helping people move better, smarter, and with purpose. Tim sees potential the moment you walk in the door, and he makes it his mission to help you earn it. To him, no goal is ever too ambitious.

Today, Tim co-leads one of Chicago’s most respected private training facilities, recognized for its culture, community, and results-driven programming. His vision continues to shape Ethos into a place where athletes of all levels develop strength, longevity, and confidence.
