Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We use an evidence-based approach to training. Depending on the student's current fitness level, and goals, we would usually start with basic movements, to make sure proper technique is used. After having a solid foundation of basic movements we progressively increase the difficulty and load of each exercise. We believe in improving movement quality first before lifting heavy weight.
