Strength Training made simple

Have you had a trainer that used a bunch of jargon that confused you? That wouldn't listen to your point of view? Strength training isn't meant to be complicated, it's just not always easy. This program gives you the guidance to get stronger and live life on easy mode without the focus on your body or gender. Just lift weights and be yourself.

Got an hour? That's all you need

Long workouts aren't needed. One hour, 3 to 4 days a week is right where you need to be to make progress. Too much can cause strain on your body and lead to injury. More isn't more, doing it smartly is going to lead you to a healthier you.

Join an Amazing Community

Our mission isn't just to get a barbell in everyone's hands, it's to help introduce barbell training to those that might have felt marginalized in the past. We are a firm believer in supporting the LGTBQI+ in the gym and taking up space. Your strength is important too, no matter where you're starting from or what body you have.

FAQs

Will I really be stronger with only a few exercises?

Yes! If you are consistent with your training, putting effort in, and following the program: you'll be stronger. We've done this hundreds of times, we've seen what can happen with consistency.

I'm not sore after my training, am I not doing enough?

Being sore or putting in so much effort that you want to (or actually do) puke after a training session doesn't mean you've gotten a good, smart workout. The amount of effort, especially just beginning, to get results is a lot less than you think.

I have almost no time, how long are the workouts?

They should take you no longer than 1 hour to complete. Put your headphones in, put your head down, and go crush it for an hour and then get back to your life!

Do I need to belong to a gym?

Unless you have a well equipped garage gym, a gym is essential for this program.
