One thing that makes Starting Strength Gyms different is how we adjust training to fit the individual person in front of us — and how closely we watch what you're doing under the bar.
Member Patrick from Starting Strength Columbus puts it this way: with technique, it's a matter of millimeters, and it makes a phenomenal difference.
Patrick has had shoulder trouble for over 15 years. Working with his coach, he's built up to pressing 95 lbs overhead — something he'd never done on his own. In the bench press, his coach set him up on an angled bench to reduce strain on the shoulder and keep him progressing. And when Patrick came in with a back tweak from yard work, his coach adjusted the session, and he left feeling better than when he walked in.
A shoulder that's been bothering you for years? An achy knee? A back that flares up? Our coaches help you figure out how to adjust your training so you can keep getting stronger.
