LIFT

LIFT is one of the best strength training workouts available in a group training environment. This is not a Crossfit class.  Our programming follows the same methods used in Division 1 college athletics and professional sports programs and is designed to help anyone looking to build strength and lean muscle.  Our LIFT program utilizes traditional lifts with barbells, kettle bells, and dumbbells.  This is a great workout for adding lean muscle, gaining overall strength, and learning proper techniques for improving strength.  We center the workout around barbell exercises like Squats, Bench Press, Deadlifts, Military Press, & Cleans.  We follow a Linear Periodization model that progresses from lighter weights with more repetitions to lower rep ranges and heavier weights.  Every 12 Weeks we test your 1 Rep Max and help you use the correct percentages during our group workouts.  The format works well for beginners or experienced lifters.  Combine LIFT with HIIT on a weekly basis to get the perfect combination of Strength & Conditioning.

Benefits of Strength Training

Increased Muscle: Development of lean muscle tissue.

Improved Metabolism: Muscle burns more calories at rest than fat, contributiing to weight management.

Enhanced Bone Density: Weight-bearing exercises help maintain or increase bone density.

Better Joint Health: Strengthening muscles can provide better support to joints, reducing the risk of injuries.

Overall Performance: Improved muscle strength contributes to better balance, speed, and control in sports and other daily activities. 

They Call it Strength Training but is it?

Strength Training is the new buzzword in fitness and Strength training workouts are supposed to make you stronger.  Any exercises can technically make you stronger initially if you are new to exercise.  If you don’t increase your weights over time, you will eventually be doing endurance training.  Your body will adapt to high repitition training and your initial strength gains will plateau.  True strength training programs test your LIFTing ability and program your workouts based on a percentage of your score.   The numbers matter and they need to be adjusted over a training cycle in order to contiue your progress.  Barbell based Lifting programs provide better access to compound lifts and weights that are more effective at improving overall strength.  With any LIFT, technique proficiency should come before weight.  Our program focuses on teaching proper techniques and progressing the workouts accordingly.   

MOVE

MOVE is our interval-based Strength & Conditioning program designed to complement the strength developed in LIFT. Each workout is organized into four focused training blocks featuring upper body training, lower body training, core strength, and athletic movement. MOVE is programmed around the opposite muscle groups trained in LIFT, creating a balanced approach that develops strength, mobility, stability, endurance, and overall athletic performance. Using dumbbells, kettlebells, bodyweight exercises, plyometrics, and functional movement patterns, MOVE helps members build a strong foundation while improving the way they move and perform. While MOVE delivers many of the benefits associated with High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), it does so while emphasizing proper technique, controlled movement, and quality repetitions rather than simply moving as fast as possible. For many new members, MOVE is the ideal place to start, providing expert coaching, scalable exercises, and a supportive environment to build strength and confidence. Pair MOVE with LIFT throughout the week to experience a complete Strength & Conditioning program.
