Central Coast Barbell

2025…. What a year. Lost my amazing gym. Gained a beautiful son. Highs and lows. I started the gym as a dream to have somewhere better for strength athletes to train. I loved it, and losing it felt like losing a family member. But I gained love unlike anything I’ve felt before. Having a kid can be hard, but his smile…

Anyway, Happy New Year to you, my friends. I wish nothing but the best for you

2025…. What a year. Lost my amazing gym. Gained a beautiful son. Bought another bike, got a matching tattoo with brothers. Highs and lows. I started the gym as a dream to have somewhere better for strength athletes to train. I loved it, and losing it felt like losing a family member. But I gained love unlike anything I’ve felt before. Having a kid can be hard, but his smile…

TIPS FOR BENCH PRESS Grip the bar as tight as possible Pull shoulder blades back together Deep breath and leg drive Bench is definitely one of our favourite lifts for upper muscle mass and strength. Always warm up with a lighter weight, work each set with good form and technique before overloading weight. Progressive overload and range of motion are key in making progress. Be sure to work antagonist muscles as well as stabilising the shoulder joint to help reduce mobility issues. Accessory work for lats, shoulder and triceps will see you gain an even bigger bench. If competing, practice cues and pauses throughout training. Come and train in our fully equipped strength gym and have a go for yourself. Casual visits $20, memberships starting at $80 a month D/D. #strongsince2008 #centralcoastbarbell #gym #centralcoastgym #powerlifting #strongman #getthickordietrying #centralcoast #training #bench #powerlifting #benchpress #chestday #chest #benchtraining #gymmotivation

So what’s your excuse? Tim has cerebral palsy. He’s been a friend and client of mine for a few years now and this is him pulling 80kg then 85kg single handed. #training #gymmotivation #cerebralpalsy #cerebralpalsyawareness #mates #ccb #getthickordietrying #centralcoastnsw
