Weight Lifting 101
We are excited to announce a new program called Weight Lifting 101. Dr. Taylor Goodwill will be leading this series to help keep our athletes and patients safe when they are working out in the gym. We will be covering proper warm up techniques, core engagement for loaded activities, and proper techniques for classic lifts. These lifts will include deadlifts, RDLs, bench press, shoulder press, and other traditional exercises.
The first class will focus on the lower body. Additional classes will be held for upper body and other power exercises. The goal is to have everyone learn the proper form then move onto circuit style training classes.
Classes are limited to 5 people and are $30 per session. If you are interested in buying a package of several classes, click here.
