📢PERSONAL TRAINING SHOUT OUT📢

Do I really need a caption for this one? Look at this man
🙌👏
Jon has been putting in work for almost a year now and is only about 10lbs away from his goal weight! 😤

Jon came to us with a few goals, lose body fat, continue to gain muscle and prioritize athletic movement as he is involved in several sports leagues in Charleston! 🎾

Jon showed great improvement but has made huge changes the past few months and it shows! 🤟

Two milestones worth celebrating this week!! 🏆

Jared joined us exactly 10 weeks ago and hasn’t missed a weekday since.

Monday–Friday × 10 weeks = 50 Strive classes 🤯

Meanwhile, Hailey hit an incredible 100 classes in just under 18 weeks!!

But our favorite part? Both of them came back to our ENGINE benchmark this week and crushed their previous times ⚡️

The milestone numbers are fun, but that is what showing up consistently is all about: getting stronger, more confident and seeing what your body can do!

50 classes. 100 classes. A whole lot of consistency.

Way to STRIVE, Jared + Hailey. 👏 Happy to have you both on the team!

You want to move more, but pain feels unpredictable.
Stress keeps your body feeling constantly “on.”
You worry about making things worse.
Or you find yourself doing too much…then nothing at all.

That is exactly what we’re talking about at .

Together, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Licensed Professional Counselor will help you understand how pain, stress, and the nervous system interact—and give you practical ways to respond differently.

Expect:

simple nervous system calming strategies
practical education around pain and movement
tools for getting out of the all-or-nothing cycle
a gentle, adaptable movement session

Our goal is not to push you through pain. It is to help you feel more confident understanding your body and taking a manageable next step.

PERSONAL TRAINING SHOUTOUT📢

Will is a Sophomore wrestler at Lucy Beckham. He had a huge Freshmen season wrestling at 106lbs last year! Last week Will walked out of Strive at 130lbs😤

Will has put in a tremendous amount of work throughout the summer! Showing up 3 times a week for the past 3 months and getting after it every time he walked through the door!

Over the last three months we have progressed all of his major lifts, dialed in his nutrition and continued to work sport specific exercises that will translate to the mat

All I have to say is this kid is locked in and the 126lb weight class better watch out🤫

Help us give a big Strive welcome to Katlynn! 👏

Katlynn recently joined our team as a Certified Personal Trainer, and we’re so excited to have her bringing her energy, experience, and passion for helping people get stronger to Strive.

With a background in athletics and certifications in both personal training and adaptive & inclusive fitness, Katlynn believes training should meet people where they are—and help them realize just how capable they can be.

You’ll see Katlynn coaching classes, working with personal training clients, and helping us continue to grow our small group training at Strive.

We’re pumped to have her on the team. If you see her around the gym, make sure you say hi! 👋💪

Welcome to Strive, Katlynn!

Your group chat finally has plans. 💪

Grab 1–3 friends and start training together with Coach Katlynn at STRIVE ⚡️

This is small-group personal training—not a crowded class. You’ll get personalized programming, real coaching and a consistent time to train with people you already enjoy being around 🫶🏼

No experience required. No figuring it out alone. Just your own coach, your own crew and a plan built to help you get stronger.

Katlynn is opening only a few small-group training times as she builds her schedule. Once those times are filled, we’ll begin a waitlist.

Your group’s first session is FREE.
