Bend, Don't Break

Mobility, Powerlifting, Bodybuilding
Coaches
Katie Kollath and Heather Hamilton

Move better, be stronger. We combine main compound lifts, smart accessory movements, and auxiliary mobility work so that you can lift heavy, move well, and live pain free.

Many strength programs neglect the necessary priming and mobility work to keep the joints healthy; and many mobility programs involve endless stretching, but don't cover the strengthening work the joints require.

Make your body bulletproof by gaining strength through the compound lifts and maximizing joint health for your hips and shoulders.

If you want to get strong as hell and become unbreakable, this team is for you.

FAQs
Who is this training for?
Anyone who wants to get strong and live pain free. We recommend having some experience with resistance training under your belt before jumping into this program, but we still welcome all levels.
What equipment do I need?
Barbell, plates, rack (or pull-up bar), and dumbbells
How many days per week is this program?
5 days/week, but don't stress if you can't hit all 5. 3 is solid but we've got 5 programmed for those who want to maximize strength and mobility or they just can't stay away from the gym.
What happens if I miss a day?
No problem. Go back and pick up where you left off. You can switch around your recovery days as needed, too.
Is the mobility work on separate days?
The mobility work is incorporated into each day to maximize performance on the main lifts. There is a fifth day that is predominantly mobility work, as well.
