The Thanksgiving Challenge is officially underway — 22 of us, 10 weeks, one goal: show up lighter and stronger on Thanksgiving.

Pictured is my breakfast. There's are many breakfasts but this one is mine (obscure Full Metal Jacket reference). There's a ton of information in there.

Tip #1: It's calories in vs. calories out. That's the equation, full stop. Hormones, food quality, timing, sleep — those are confounders that nudge the numbers around; they don't replace the math. Understand the core mechanism in isolation first: consistently eat less energy than you burn and the weight comes off. Everything else is fine-tuning.

Want help? We offer Nutritional Counseling and Programming — and if you're interested, full spectrum, hands -on training in person and remotely through our training app.

Reach out by DM to start your trip towards better health and fitness.

I'm currently rehabbing my right rotator cuff (details unimportant) and it's not easy. I'm a lifting coach and not a PT so I work with professionals to find my way back from injury.

The old rule of “just rest it until it stops hurting” is dead.

Rest doesn’t rebuild tissue. Load does. And I'm loading my shoulder in small doses like three sets of five reps.

Your body doesn’t adapt to sitting on the couch—it only adapts to stress. When you completely shut down an injured muscle, tendon, or joint, the tissue heals weak, brittle, and disorganized. You lose capacity, the area atrophies, and the second you jump back into training, you blow it out again.

Rehab is training. Get back to it.

Barbara joined us a while back, but a year ago she started to fight back against osteoporosis in her hips and osteopenia in her spine. Instead of backing down, she committed to real, progressive weightlifting. One year later, her latest scans show she is completely normal in her lower back, and the bone loss in her hips has stopped entirely.

​When you lift heavy weights, your muscles pull directly on your bones, creating mechanical tension. This load triggers osteoblasts—the cells responsible for building bone—to draw in minerals like calcium and lay down fresh, dense bone tissue (a principle known as Wolff’s Law). Regular cardio or light movement simply cannot generate the force needed to spark this remodeling process. Progressive resistance training literally signals your body to reinforce its internal framework, reversing bone density loss where you need it most.

​If you’re ready to build a stronger, more resilient body just like Barbara, start with our $149 Assessment. We will evaluate your current movement patterns, identify baseline strength, and map out a safe, personalized lifting plan tailored to your medical history and bone health goals.

Come check the Pro Shop at Strong Sports Gym. I'm clearing old inventory to make room for a full selection of casual athletic wear and accessories in the Spring. Didn't miss it in all the old styles.

Congratulations to club member Arjuna Burgos for his unreal win in Belgium at the West Flanders stage race. Wow!

Endurance sports also sit on a foundation of strength. Get in the gym.

Watch Emmett on his first set of low back squats. Incredible.

There’s a common myth that young children aren't ready for strength training because they don't know the technical jargon.

The truth? Young children can start lifting with progressive overload if they have proper coaching. Kids are movement sponges—they don't need a dictionary to learn great form, they just need the right cues.

Instead of telling a young athlete to "hinge at the hips," an expert coach tells them to "slam their chest down." Kids translate external cues into safe, precise mechanics instantly. They take technical instruction well because their nervous systems excel at visual and physical adaptation.

Progressive overload at this age isn't about heavy weights; it’s about mastering control, adding a clean rep, or perfecting tempo.

Young boys and girls build incredible movement literacy, safety habits, and athletic confidence long before they ever read a training book.
