Once your attention is directed towards the positive consistencies of your strength journey, the tougher lessons learned will be met with understanding and grace (from yourself).

Clarity, patience, and trust in the process is what truly matters. You’re not just training to look good for the weekend, you’re training for an independent lifestyle when you’re deep into your sixties, seventies, eighties and nineties!

If you’re in need of some relatable & trustworthy guidance, our doors are open for you.

“Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life! Think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success.”

-Swami Vivekananda

This quote may seem aggressive but can you imagine a commitment so strong, to your nutrition and weight training? You’d accomplish each of your goals relating to appearance, health, strength and mental clarity. You’d be a happier person and many others would be inspired by your focus.

With only 100lbs of iron on the rack, this weighted hip hinge is a great accessory in today’s training. The goal is to move slower and deepen the connection between muscle and mind!

You tell the hamstrings to engage, (on cue) they do!
You tell the glutes to engage, (on cue) they do!

We will add more deficit to deepen the hip hinge and recruit more hamstrings/ glutes for the movement.

Can the Abductor Machine help me grow my glutes?
Yes. The Abductor Machine can “help” shape and grow your glutes but it is NOT a magic “big butt” machine, all by itself. If the goal is bigger glutes, treat the Abductor Machine as an accessory or finisher but not the main lift.

Some examples of what works well in our gym, are:
1. Hip Thrusters + Abductor Machine + Proper Nutrition
2. Belt Squats + Abductor Machine + Proper Nutrition
3. Barbell/Dumbbell Walking Lunges + Abductor Machine +
Proper Nutrition

Your weight training journey should be a fun one.
Remove unnecessary friction by keeping your training simple and very consistent. Always remember, nutrition, sleep, and hydration are just as important as your weight training program.

*You’re not just training for the weekend, you’re training to enjoy life as a strong, healthy, & independent 65 to 85 year old person. If you’re interested in learning more about how our program can help you, please comment below.

There’s a quiet woman like Kim in every single strength community, and it is universally known, that she is “a real fighter!”

You may not know the intimacies of her fight.
You may not be open enough to understand her fight.
You may even be too afraid to ask her about her fight.

But what you do know, is that there’s a fight in her for positivity, ownership of her strength, clarity & confidence, belief in family & lineage, greatness in motherhood, a continuous commitment to discipline and a few extra reps while coach is in her face!

We are very proud to say that Kim has lowered her Visceral Fat from Level 23 to Level 19. That is an amazing achievement in her health and we are thankful she is getting stronger with us!
