OUR MISSION
At Cosmic Absolute, our mission is to help people unlock their true potential through fitness, community, and creativity. We provide science fiction–inspired coaching to transform bodies and minds, build a tribe through our apparel that unites those who strive for greatness, and inspire others through our original trading card game and comics.
By merging real-world self-improvement with an epic fictional universe, we turn every goal into a mission, every workout into a quest, and every setback into a plot twist — because becoming your best self is the greatest story ever told.
JOSHUA SALGADO
Owner | Coach | Creative Director
I’m a combat veteran and certified Personal Trainer with nearly 800 flight hours aboard the C-130H as a Loadmaster in the U.S. Air National Guard. Over the years, I’ve traveled to more than 19 countries and operated in some of the world’s most demanding environments — experiences that shaped my mindset and commitment to personal excellence.
I am also the first military aviator born with bilateral clubbed feet, and the first hybrid athlete with this condition to complete high-level physical challenges, including the Marine Corps Marathon and the HYROX Challenge in Washington, D.C. What many saw as a limitation became my greatest source of strength. It’s this journey — of transforming obstacles into opportunities — that defines not only how I train, but how I coach others to push beyond their limits.
Fueled by that mission, I founded Cosmic Absolute — “Gym Wear for the Gym Nerd!” — a sci-fi-inspired fitness brand that merges performance apparel, online coaching, and original storytelling. We are the first gymwear and coaching brand to feature a fully developed trading card game (TCG) and indie comic series, bringing fitness and imagination together in one powerful universe.
Whether you’re an athlete, a nerd, or someone starting your comeback story — I’m here to help you level up in body, mind, and spirit.
OUR VISION
At Cosmic Absolute, our vision is to build a multimillion-dollar brand that transforms the landscape of fitness and storytelling. We aim to bring our original sci-fi universe to life — first through apparel, coaching, trading cards, and comics, and ultimately on the big screen as a feature film or streaming series.
Our goal is to become a household name, inspiring a global movement that redefines what it means to be strong, disciplined, and imaginative. Cosmic Absolute isn’t just a brand — it’s a new mythology for a new generation, and a call to unlock your ultimate potential.
