We no longer offer trials. We believe in providing the best possible service to our members and offering free trials would reduce the attention we could give to both the trial attendees and paying members. We do have a buy one get one class pack that allows you to try out both the strength class & endurance-based class that we offer.
Our complimentary consultation is how we ensure we are putting new members in the proper classes/training, depending on their goals. It also prevents injuries and ensures your first experience with us is exceptional.
We focus on strength-based results using simple, science-backed training. Our programs are designed to help your body adapt properly, not just feel tired. That means clear structure, intentional training, and enough rest and recovery to actually get stronger. Instead of mixing everything together and slowing progress, we follow proven principles that lead to consistent results you can build on over time.
We track it! Your training is logged over time so you can see real improvement, not just how tired you feel. Strength gains, endurance progress, and effort levels are all recorded so nothing is left to guesswork. This gives you clear proof you’re moving in the right direction and confidence that the process is working.
They support each other. Strength training builds muscle and makes your body more efficient. Endurance training improves how well your heart and energy systems work. Together, they raise your overall capacity so you can train harder, recover better, and see results faster than doing only one or the other.
These classes are for everyone! In any class you’ll find people that have been doing these kinds of workouts for years, and others that are just getting started. We know its our responsibility to ensure that EVERYONE gets a good and safe workout. Everything is at your own pace and everything can be modified.
Even though all our classes are beginner-friendly, we still require a consultation for new attendees to ensure safety and the best experience. This allows our coaches to help you properly perform exercises during the class and give modifications as needed.
Everything can be modified! If you have an old injury, any mobility issues, or restricted movements of any kind, please let us know. We’ll make sure to provide alternatives and modifications throughout your program.
