Dropped in for a session with some regulars. Great attention from Blake and small class format for effective workout
Best gym in Boulder! I've belonged to large box gyms, and also did
Crossfit for a few years. I always lost motivation at the large box gyms. Crossfit was fun, but eventually my body kept breaking down and I never got time to focus on getting stronger.
This gym teaches power/oly lifts and integrates kettlebells/other exercises through a systematic approach. I never felt pressured to lift too much, but always received attention to my form and improvement.
Owners and trainers at the gym are very smart and knowledgeable. I always came home feeling great from the workout, improved my strength, and could still function the next day (unlike crossfit).
The coaches are some of the best in the nation and most of them compete at the regional level. They coach focusing on form/technique, improving while not getting hurt and and having fun.
Before meeting the staff at Barbell Strategy a couple months ago, I had never successfully gone to a gym more than 3 times...ever. I could have counted on one hand the number of times I had lifted a kettlebell or barbell. That seems like a distant memory; I'm now regularly exercising 3-4 times a week, and I'm already beginning to feel the difference in strength and body confidence. Blake has a saint-like amount of patience, basically teaching me how to lift from complete scratch, and adjusts the program as necessary to make sure I am perfecting my technique.
Whether it's with friends, family, class instructors or personal trailers, I've never been able to actually keep up with a regiment, or actually learn how to properly exercise, until I started going to Barbell Strategy. Now, when someone from Boulder tosses their manbun back and casually asks, "Do You Even Lift, Bro?", I can confidently say, "Yes. Yes I Do Even Lift. Bro."
This is the anti-hype gym. They offer nothing more than the essentials: barbells, kettlebells, pullup bars, racks, and platforms (there are some rowers). Coaching and programming is simple and effective. There is no push to sell you anything, no fancy marketing, no weird competitive attitudes. It's very pragmatic. The coaches only care about getting you fit. They don't even seem to care too much about what sells, as long as what they do actually works (which it does, sometimes shockingly fast).
There aren't a lot of gyms, anywhere, you can simply get access to a good set of weights and a bar. You either have to sign up for the whole CrossFit thing where you can't really follow a consistent program (by design, not saying it's a bad thing), or fight over the one good bar at the YMCA.
If you want coaching, you can get it. If you want a class, you can do that too (though people will come in whenever and workouts overlap rather than being on a fixed clock). If you just want a place to follow your own program, maybe get some expert input from great coaches, you can have that too. If you want to actually learn how to get strong and fit, lose weight, and don't care too much about being sold on a fancy program or a spiffy gym, this is the place for you.
(For context, I'm an ex-CrossFit coach, an ex-Natural Movement instructor, distance runner, a longtime martial artist and general fitness practitioner.)
