Not every workout is going to look the same.

Some days you'll feel great. Some days your coach might need to modify a movement. Some days you'll add weight or hit a PR, and other days you'll just get the work done.

That's okay.

Because the workouts that change you aren't just the great ones. They're all of them, stacked together week after week.

Get your workouts on the calendar. Make them part of your week. Come in even when you don't feel 100%.

Just keep showing up. đŸ’Ș

🏆 Three years in a row!

Straight Shot Training has officially won a 2026 SASS Choice Award for Gym/Fitness Center, making this our third consecutive year receiving this award.

What makes this one so meaningful to us is how it happens: our community votes for it.

This October will mark five years since we opened the doors to our studio in Frederick. There are people in these photos, and people we'll see in the gym tomorrow, who have been with us for nearly every step of that journey. You've trained with us, brought your friends and family through our doors, shared our posts, told people about us, left reviews, supported our events, and, once again, showed up to vote for Straight Shot.

As a small, locally owned business, that kind of support means more to us than we can really put into words. We don't have national name recognition or a massive marketing budget behind us. What we have is an incredible group of people who believe in what we're building here, and year after year, you've helped Straight Shot continue to grow.

The award may have our name on it, but this is absolutely a reflection of the community that has made Straight Shot what it is.

To everyone who voted for us, everyone who has trusted us with their training, our coaches who pour so much into the people they work with every day, and everyone who has supported this small gym with big dreams over the last five years: thank you.

Three years in a row. That's pretty dang cool. 🏆🏆🏆

And we couldn't have done it without you.

Welcome to the 100 Club, Bruce, Christine, Nishi, and Mar!

These four officially joined the Straight Shot 100 Club in August, and we couldn’t be happier to add their names to the wall!

The 100 Club has always been about more than hitting a number. It represents the consistency that actually creates progress. You keep showing up, keep putting in the work, keep trusting your coaches and your program, and over time, you get better. Stronger, more capable, more confident, or whatever your goal happens to be.

And these four have done exactly that.

We’re also incredibly grateful for what Bruce, Christine, Nishi, and Mar bring to our community. They’re familiar faces in the gym, they’re welcoming to new members, they support the people training alongside them, and every time they walk through our doors, they’re supporting our small business and helping Straight Shot continue to grow.

100 sessions is a lot of showing up, and that deserves to be celebrated.

Congratulations, Bruce, Christine, Nishi, and Mar! We’re grateful to have you here, and we can’t wait to see you hit the 250 Club next!

Something hurts, so you should probably skip your workout, right?

Not necessarily.

One of the biggest things we’ve learned over 19 years of personal training is that your body isn’t going to feel exactly the same every time you walk into the gym.

Knees get cranky. Shoulders get sore. Backs get tight. Sometimes you’re dealing with an injury or coming back from something that changes what you can comfortably do.

That’s why your workout at Straight Shot isn’t set in stone.

If something is bothering you, tell your coach. We can change an exercise, adjust the range of motion or load, change the setup, or train something completely different that day. We regularly work with members dealing with shoulder issues, preparing for joint replacements, returning to strength training after giving birth, and navigating all kinds of other limitations.

Of course, there are times when an injury needs medical attention or you’ve been given specific restrictions that we need to follow. But having something going on doesn’t automatically mean you need to stop strength training altogether.

As Coach John puts it, “If you can physically get here, we can train you.”

That’s a pretty good summary of how we approach training at Straight Shot. Get here, let your coach know what’s going on, and we’ll figure out the best way for you to train that day.

We went into a lot more detail about how we train around pain, injuries and physical limitations in our newest blog. We’ll drop the link in the comments if you want to read the full article.

IT’S DAY ONE! đŸŠƒđŸƒâ€â™‚ïž

Training for the Sheppard Pratt Turkey Trot in Frederick officially starts today!

There are Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced 5K running programs, plus a strength training program designed to go right alongside them.

Never run a 5K before? We’ve got you. Already a runner and want to get faster? We’ve got you too. And if you’re finding this after today, don’t worry. You can still jump in and get started.

Dave is officially in the 500 Club! đŸ’Ș

This one is pretty special because Dave has been with us since before Straight Shot was even Straight Shot. He trained with Coach Jonny at another gym, came along when we were renting space from another studio, and was here from day one when we finally opened our own place.

Now, at 83 years old, Dave is still in here three times a week training with Coach Jonny and Coach Kim, getting stronger, cracking jokes, and usually finding his way into the coaches’ office if there happen to be any treats laying around. 😂

And that’s what makes 500 sessions such a cool milestone. Dave is a great example of why strength training needs to be something we prioritize for our entire lives. He’s our most seasoned member, and his consistency and commitment to staying strong is something all of us can learn from.

But beyond the training, Dave is just a huge part of Straight Shot. He and his wife have supported us from the very beginning, they’re always at our events, and they’ve been in our corner every step of the way. Dave is one of the kindest and most generous people you’ll ever meet, and if you’ve spent much time around here, there’s a pretty good chance you know Dave and love having him here just as much as we do.

We’re incredibly proud of you, Dave, and really grateful that you’ve chosen to make Straight Shot part of your week for all these years.

A different workout every time isn’t a better workout.

There’s a big difference between exercising and training.

If the exercises, weights, reps, and goals are constantly changing, it becomes really difficult to know if you’re actually making progress.

That’s why repetition is intentional at Straight Shot.

We want you to see exercises again. We want you to know what you did last time. We want you to have an opportunity to add weight, perform another rep, improve your technique, increase your range of motion, or simply execute the movement better than you did before.

And we track it.

Your exercise history in our app gives you and your coach a record of what you’ve done so we can make informed decisions about what comes next.

That’s part of the Straight Shot Training System.

Your workouts aren’t random. They’re part of a plan designed to help you make measurable progress over time.

Because the goal isn’t to constantly give you something different.

The goal is to help you get better.

A little look at what 7 AM looks like at Straight Shot. đŸ’Ș

There’s something about getting your training done before the rest of the day gets going.

Our mornings are full of people getting stronger, working toward their goals, and starting their day with something they did for themselves.

We have Semi-Private Training sessions every weekday morning at 6, 7, 8, and 9am. Perfect if you want to get your workout in before work and get on with your day.

Come get stronger with us.

500 SESSIONS. đŸ»đŸ’Ș

In February 2023, Scott walked through our doors for his first session at Straight Shot.

Three and a half years later, he’s officially a member of the 500 Club.

Over those 500 sessions, Scott has completely transformed his strength, his body, and most importantly, his overall health.

But what we’re celebrating today is the consistency it took to get there.

Week after week, year after year, Scott has continued to show up, put in the work, and make his health a priority. And he’s managed to bring plenty of humor along with him for the ride.

Scott is also the brewer right next door at Rockwell Brewery, and if you’ve been to one of our studio potlucks or happy hours at Rockwell, there’s a pretty good chance you’ve enjoyed some of the awesome b**r he’s made!đŸș

Scott, we’re incredibly proud of everything you’ve accomplished over the past 500 sessions, and we’re grateful for everything you bring to the Straight Shot community.

WELCOME TO THE CLUB! đŸ’Ș

July brought another group of Straight Shot members into the 100 & 250 Clubs!

Congratulations to Tanya, Madhu, Renee, Marg, Paul, and Sai on reaching a huge milestone in their training!

Getting to 100 or 250 sessions means a lot of weeks of making time to train, showing up, and putting in the work. Life gets busy, schedules change, and some weeks are easier than others, but consistency over time is what adds up.

And that’s exactly what these milestones represent.

We’re incredibly proud of each of you, and we’re grateful you’ve chosen to make Straight Shot part of your journey. 💚

Keep showing up. There’s another Club waiting for you!
