Coming back from injury starts with two questions.

1. Where do you want to end up?

Having a goal of brushing your teeth without shoulder pain requires a different approach than wanting to be able to bench press again.

2. Where are you right now?

If you can only lift your arm to shoulder level, we find exercises you can do within the range of motion you’re comfortable with, and work to get stronger within that range of motion.

Simultaneously, we’ll start slowly and safely exposing you to more range of motion - eventually starting to work to get stronger in those new ranges of motion once you get comfortable there.

Genuine curiosity is the most common trait that great coaches share.

If there are things you want to be able to do when you turn 70, don’t stop doing them.

Will you lose some physical capabilities as you get older? Sure. That’s part of aging.

But age isn’t the MAIN reason you lose these capabilities.

You lose them because you stop doing them.

The longer you allow yourself to NOT do these things, the less likely you’ll be able to re-gain those qualities.

The best time to start was 20 years ago. The next best time to start is today.

Coach Mike brings the group through a beginner-friendly pull-up variation.

“We train athletes like the pros” is a red flag, not a selling point.

One of the benefits of small group training is the attention to detail in your exercise ex*****on.

More stress on the muscles, healthier joints.

Win-win.

This is a partnership. Like any good partnership, two-way communication is required.

That’s our number one ask of our members. Over-communicate with us, so that we can provide you with what you need on any given day.

Feeling planks mostly in your shoulders or neck?

If you can hold a plank for minutes on end...

We’re going to question if we’re getting into what we would define as a “true” plank position.

Good planks should cook your abs, not your arms.

When done with great technique, even those with the strongest core should only be able to hold a plank for a minute or two.

You change your body with two things:

1. Consistency
2. Long periods of time.

Training for athletic development is a 12 month/year process.

It’s essential to take a look at an athlete’s calendar year and identify time where training becomes more of a priority, and time where it takes a back seat.

..But that dial can never be turned to zero.

Take a peek into our small group training session, where Coach Mike works a group through a portion of a session that includes an arm and core circuit.
