Back in 2015 coach Laith was the one and only coach in Amman to talk about sleep, recovery, nutrition, longevity. He introduced functional training to the whole city of Amman for the first time. Coach Laith’s intelligence and wisdom didn’t only help me physically and mentally, he changed my perspective on health, life and as a person. He educated me with life long habits and skills, he understands the whole person, and that makes a lasting impact. I’m grateful for everything Laith has taught and done for me… It’s more than a training journey, it’s been a path of real growth. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a coach who truly understands how to guide lasting transformation physically, mentally, and beyond. I can confidently say he is one of the most intelligent and wise coaches I’ve ever met and worked with.

years during elementary school. That changed when I moved to a new job, where my colleague Haya introduced me to CrossFit and encouraged me to join QuickSand. Laith was the head coach there, and he later became my personal trainer during COVID. From my very first day of training with Laith, I saw someone who was supportive and passionate about his work. Laith didn’t treat me or any other trainees as mere clients; he approached us like a big brother, taking on the responsibility of helping us improve our lifestyles. He always emphasized that he wanted each of us to become a better version of ourselves. Together, we worked on my fitness, sleep, nutrition, and mental well-being. With his support and motivation, I lost around 23 kg, and he truly helped me become a better version of myself. I always recommend Laith as an expert in fitness; he will guide you toward the best options for your health, fitness, and overall life.

Laith I’ve known Laith for close to 10 years now. I met him when I first walked into the old Quicksand in Wadi Saqra, wide-eyed and scared to death of using my body in ways that don’t involve a couch for the first time. From the start, I was struck with his serious and knowledgeable demeanor, interspersed with moments of wit, sarcasm, humor, sprinkled with a very appropriate amount of sadism. 
Over the years, though I haven’t always been consistent in my attendance, Laith has been an ever-present part of my fitness journey. Pushing me, and others in his classes, to dig deep and squeeze out one more rep is a skill not all possess. He intuitively reads the person, and their mood, and knows today, now, what method will push us to break new barriers. One day, positive reinforcement - “You’re doing great, perfect form, don’t stop!”. The next, playing on everyone’s inborn desire to please - “I’ve seen you do this heavier/better/faster, don’t be lazy”. And when needed, the stinging whip - “Don’t be a wuss!” - often the most effective incentive for a middle-aged man already afraid of the natural decline in testosterone levels! 
Laith always pushed me to do more, but never hesitates to correct posture, form, or suggest a dropping of weight. Proper technique is never sacrificed for the sake of ego lifts.

Laith has developed into an art form the delicate balancing of training our minds to believe we can do something, and our bodies into actually performing the task at hand. All while connecting with each person he trains on a personal level, shifting his personality and approach on the fly depending on what his trainee needs. This attention to both the psychology and physique is a rare find.

Over the years, I’ve come to observe another phenomenon. Laith walks into a gym, a class, and he’s instantly greeted with handshakes, one-armed bro-hugs, and sometimes full-frontal bear hugs. Everyone Laith has trained, or trained with, recognizes that behind the bearded smile (and occasional scowl) is a man who loves what he does, loves the people he trains, and does a damn fine job doing it. I cannot put my finger on the moment it happened, but somewhere along the line, I began to view Laith not as a trainer or life coach or fitness guru/guide, but as a friend. It is both pleasure and an honor to know him in both forms. I cannot recommend him strongly enough to anyone looking to either start or direct their path to better fitness and health.

Captain Laith has been a coach and a friend and a brother to me and is a huge part how i view the fitness industry till this day ,, he taught and showed me different perspectives in exercising/coaching and in life in general and how important it is to focus on the mental part of exercising as much as the physical part. I’m forever grateful for this man and always recommend people to workout with him because i believe he’s hands down the best in town. And as always ,, thank you for being you Captain 🫡

Twelve years ago, I walked into an induction class that changed my life. I had just lost my brother, and I was in a very dark place, grieving, depressed, and unsure of how to move forward. That day, I met Laith and his wonderful wife Rima, and I’ll never forget it. I regretted walking in the minute I arrived. I started the workout, ran a single lap, and ended up sitting on the side of the field, overwhelmed. I didn’t want to continue. But Laith and Rima didn’t let me give up. They got up and ran the laps with me. I remember Laith saying gently, “At your own pace, we have all day.” That one line, and the care behind it, shifted something in me. I left that session feeling hopeful , something I hadn’t felt in a long time. That was the beginning of my functional fitness journey. Laith started me on a path that has shaped my life ever since. I’ve learned to prioritize my health and well-being, and I can honestly say I wouldn’t be where I am without his support, especially during one of the hardest times of my life. For that, I am forever grateful. Laith is not only incredibly knowledgeable in the health and fitness world, but he’s also someone I trust completely. Anytime I’m unsure about anything, he’s my go-to. He’s serious when it matters, but also funny, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping his clients thrive. He pushes you, but with heart. It might take a couple of months to get an appointment with him, he’s that good ;), but trust me, when you do, you’ll be glad you waited. Thank you Laith for seeing me when I couldn’t see myself, and for showing me what it means to keep going , at my own pace.

One of the main reasons I began working with Coach Laith was his level of professionalism and level of knowledge when it comes to catering to such a variable set of trainees, which assures a high level of quality when starting at the gym for the first time. Since I started working with Coach Laith, it has become overall more straightforward as to what to do at the gym as a solo player, and as a result, not rely on trainers abroad or on a trip when trying to get a quick gym session in. The most enjoyable part of the coaching experience was the specialized catering Coach Laith would give you as you develop yourself within the gym. Therefore, I can say that whenever anybody asks me who I need to contact concerning developing the proper foundation at the gym, I would recommend Coach Laith.

I’ve known coach Laith through Jits, where he’s been a relentless coach, motivator, and part-time bully 😂. He coached me during a phase where I was just focused on getting stronger and faster, but he really opened my eyes to longevity aspect.He is a credible source , and I still go to him whenever I need to reset my training, or for lifestyle changes. His coaching style is direct, no-nonsense, and usually comes with a side of sarcasm—but that’s what makes it so effective. He genuinely cares, and you always leave the session knowing more, moving better, and maybe laughing at a terrible joke 😅. Thank you coach ! You are a legend ..P.S: am coming for the arm bar soon ✌🏼

Thanks to Laith, I learned proper form and techniques at the beginning of my fitness journey, which made a lasting impact; best coach ever!

Honestly, Laith is the best coach i’ve ever trained with. He is so passionate about improving people’s life in terms of training and physical movement, very professional and well informed. Ofcourse i would recommend Laith to everyone I know

I started training with Laith more than ten years ago when I started CrossFit since I heard so much about it and wanted to give it a try and honestly it was one of the best decisions that I made. I became stronger than I have ever been and I do movements now and things that I always thought impossible. The continuous support and encouragement I received helped me to push the boundaries of what I can do all while making sure that I am moving properly and with a good form which helped a lot in reducing any risk of injury. Laith always pushed me to put more effort and challenge myself but never on the expense of doing any movement or carrying a load that will put me at risk of injury. Whenever I train by myself I always have his voice at the back of my mind telling me to make sure I am bracing properly or positioning my body in a proper way. I would highly recommend training with Laith for those who are serious about getting stronger, morning better and challenge themselves in way they haven’t done before. It gives you a new perspective of what you and your body can do and help you age with grace and independence

If you're lucky enough to cross paths with Laith, do yourself a favor—work with him. I've known Laith since before his rise as a top-tier personal trainer and wellness entrepreneur. Back then, he was navigating the corporate world, yet even then, his dedication, clarity, and fierce integrity stood out. He’s one of those rare individuals who pairs deep intelligence with humor, drive with humility, and discipline with warmth. Through the years, I’ve witnessed him evolve into a powerhouse of knowledge and impact, blending science, intuition, and soul into his coaching practice. What truly sets Laith apart is how much he cares. I’ve worked with many trainers, and while some delivered results, few understood the body—and more importantly, the person—like Laith does. His guidance is smart, safe, and deeply informed. I’ve had doctors and movement specialists validate his approach, which only reaffirmed my trust in him. Laith listens, adjusts, educates, and empowers. Even across borders, I sought him out because when it comes to health and longevity, I only want to work with the best. He’s a remarkable coach, a brilliant content creator, and above all, a phenomenal human being. Get on his radar before everyone else does—you’ll be grateful you did.

I first trained with Laith back in 2012–2014 in CrossFit, and I still remember him as one of the best coaches I’ve had. He just knew how to explain things clearly and make you feel supported while still pushing you to improve. Now, I still follow his work closely. He supports a lot of our staff at school with personal training, and I train Jiu-Jitsu with him too. His social media content is also something I really enjoy — it’s helpful, smart, and always on point. What stands out most about Laith is that he truly cares about people. He’s professional, knowledgeable, and has stayed consistent in how he supports others over the years. I’d absolutely recommend working with him. Whether you’re new to training or more advanced, Laith knows how to meet you where you’re at and help you grow.

- I was neglecting my health by being inactive, eating incorrectly and my health was deteriorating slowly, so I decided to take ownership of my health and reached out to Laith - so much has changed, my general health is where it should be my mental health is excellent. - the fact that Laith takes a holistic approach, asking questions about my lifestyle, what I eat etc which makes the whole experience personal and you know you are getting tailored programming and advice. - Yes I would and I have! The help and advice that Laith gives is unparalleled, giving you results that will last a lifetime.

Since I started working with Laith, I've noticed incredible changes in my fitness and overall strength! I've become stronger, more fit, more agile, and my cardio has significantly improved. One aspect that particularly stands out is how much better my grip strength has become - it's been a game changer! I first met Laith at a jiu jitsu class, where he generously offered a specialized workout guidance for a group of us to help improve performance in BJJ. Over time, I progressed into working with him more directly, where from the very beginning, he made sure that my program was tailored to align with the most beneficial way of training with a purpose- which for me, that purpose is becoming better at jiu jitsu. Even though the coaching is online and not one-on-one, Laith's approach makes it feel highly personalized. He always takes the time to review the videos I upload and provides detailed feedback that helps me improve. What I truly appreciate is how attentive he is to my individual needs. Wherever I've faced an injury, he's been quick to adjust my program, ensuring it aligns with my personal health goals and capabilities. Laith's dedication and expertise make him an exceptional trainer, and I couldn't recommend him more highly. If you're looking for a coach who genuinely cares and will help you achieve your fitness goals, Laith is the one!

Working with Coach Laith has been the best addition to my workout plan. He has helped me get stronger by creating a customised plan that works in line with my fitness goals as a trainer. Each month he makes sure to help me progress further. The platform he uses helps me keep track of that progress, communicate with him with ease and send him a form video to check on my progress. I have recommended Coach Laith to many people and still can't recommend him enough!

’d heard about CrossFit a while back and always wanted to give it a shot. Ended up at Quicksand, and that’s where I met Laith Masri Basha 😄 — the seriously sarcastic coach, haha! Laith has this unique way of getting the message across — super serious but also hilarious at the same time. He’s the one who actually taught me how muscles work, what to do, what to avoid, and all the good stuff. Honestly, his coaching and knowledge are on another level compared to others around here. And trust me, I’ve seen how some of them "teach" squats 🙈 No doubt, I’d recommend Laith to anyone looking to train, live healthier, and most importantly, learn proper form from the start.

Training with Coach Laith has completely changed the game for me. I’ve gotten stronger, my body has changed in ways everyone around me has noticed, and I’ve built the kind of confidence I never thought I’d have especially when it comes to lifting heavier. Never understood what is tempo or RPE until I started training with coach Laith, it honestly makes a big difference in the way you feel the same exercise on your body. I also learned that it’s about the quality of each rep not how many reps you do. What sets Laith apart is how much he actually pays attention, and his constant feedback. He is very supportive!

Laith is a legend and I’m grateful to PT with him. I was referred to him by my Pilates instructor that does his program. Having experienced trainers teach me wrong technique: I felt confident in our sessions to progressively overload with weights and lift heavier which is something I was fearful of doing with other coaches. Coach Laith does a meticulous assessment before setting our program and through this I discovered more of what I should be focusing on/and imbalances in my frame and muscle mass. I enjoy our sessions because he thoroughly explains things and taught me how to use mind connection when isolating muscles among other things, he also believes in women’s strength and doesn’t differentiate in our training, but tailors to the level regardless of gender. I do recommend him to everyone because I know they would be in safe, knowledgable and experienced hands.

- To support him on his journey and gain some of his knowledge. - I learned a lot by watching his videos and reading his newsletter “which I doubt anyone reads although they’re missing a lot of his jokes”. - It’s not hard to do if you follow the steps and the notes that he share with each topic. - For sure I’ll share it, maybe he’ll get better jokes by then.

Coach Laith’s approach to training changed my view forever. Since starting to train with him, I managed to hit targets I wasn’t aware I was able to achieve. His unique coaching makes it way more enjoyable than traditional coaching. I would definitely recommend checking out his training program.

What made you want to start working with Laith? I started training CrossFit 8 years ago, and Laith was the head coach at the gym. He also coached most of my 5:30 PM classes. He was incredibly dedicated, making sure to teach every movement correctly and ensuring everyone in the class lifted weights or performed exercises safely to prevent injuries. What’s changed since you started training with him? From Laith, I learned that knowledge is essential, understanding my body and movements is key to performing exercises correctly. He taught me that proper form matters more than speed or lifting heavier weights, as doing a workout right is far more important than rushing through it or adding extra weight. What do you enjoy most about the coaching experience? Laith coached us with strict attention to form, ensuring we performed every movement correctly, yet his sense of humor kept us motivated, making the hard work enjoyable. Would you recommend this to someone else? If so, why? Absolutely, I would highly recommend Laith as a coach. If you're looking to achieve your fitness goals while having fun and enjoying every session, then Laith is the perfect choice
