What is Tailboard S&C? Tailboard Strength & Conditioning is a weekly training program designed to make you stronger, faster, and more durable — without the guesswork. Built by a firefighter who competes in strongman and runs marathons, this isn’t one-dimensional training. It’s a well-rounded program that respects your time and delivers results. Who is it for? Anyone who’s tired of spinning their wheels. Whether you’re new to structured training or a seasoned athlete looking for a smarter plan, Tailboard meets you where you are. Every level is welcome. What’s included? 6 days of programming per week, updated every single week so the plan always stays fresh and intentional. You also get full access to community boards to train alongside others, leaderboards to track your performance and stay competitive, and direct coach access so you’re never left on your own. The bottom line. $15 a month. No fluff, no filler — just consistent, well-built programming from a coach who trains the same way he programs. Show up, do the work, get results.

Working as and with Firefighters and tactical athletes since 2014; CPT, Strongman competitor, and marathon runner. I built Tailboard for the person who's done guessing - simple, effective programming to get stronger, faster, and built to last. I love throwing down with my friends, and nothing brings me more joy than getting to share in their accomplishments.

FAQs
Who is this for?
Tailboard Strength & Conditioning programs are built for everyone from firefighters, tactival athletes, and everyday lifters who want to get strong, move well, and stay ready for physically demanding jobs.
How often are programs updated?
For our flagship team programming its updated every sunday going into the new week. Some of our pre programmed 8-16 week programs available for purchase are continuously being re-evaluated and updated.
What if i miss a day?
Missing a day isn't a setback, i personally believe just jumping back in as normal and continuing moving forward is the way to go.

""Hate giving myself atta boys, but i need to in order to give Tailboard SC some credit for keeping me in the gym and helping with the drive toward certain fitness goals. He finally got me there at the ripe young age of 42, i was stoked to finally join the 1000lb club. Thanks Riley, much appreciated."
