Become the Strongest Version of You
Why should I do strength training?
Strength training isn’t just about looking good—it’s about building a body that performs. Whether you’re stepping on a platform, hitting the mats, or just want to move and feel better, strength is the foundation. A common fear is that lifting will make you “big and bulky,” but in reality, training with a barbell builds lean muscle, power, and resilience without unwanted size. You won’t just wake up looking like a bodybuilder, but you will wake up feeling stronger, more capable, and in control of your body.
Beyond aesthetics, barbell sports like powerlifting and strongman develop real, functional strength that carries over to everything you do. Strength training preserves muscle as you age, reinforces bone density, and protects your joints, keeping you active and injury-free. It boosts metabolism, supports weight management, and even improves mental toughness—whether you’re grinding through a heavy set or pushing through challenges in life. If you want to move with confidence, lift with purpose, and build a body that’s strong for the long haul, barbell training is the key.

I met Will a few weeks before my first bikini competition when my trainer was no longer able to work with me. I was seeing a specialist on a very restricted diet. We immediately went to work putting on a bit of muscle with the short timeline and I had a blast at my first show with the only goal of getting on stage. I'm now 5 months out from my next show already in better shape, lifting heavier and eating normally, on track to be competitive for my second competition. Will has helped me work towards one of the most challenging goals I could give myself with patience, dedication, and a few good laughs
