Toronto Strength Workshop

Sunday September 20th, 2009
10:30 am – 12:30 pm
Bang Fitness, 610 Queen St. West, 2nd floor
$50 ($40 for Precision Nutrition members)

Want to get stronger? Leaner? More badass?

Or just learn a few fundamentals?

For the price of a single one-hour session with one of the “personal trainers” at a big-chain fitness club you can:

  • Learn the basics.
  • Make the weight room less scary.
  • Get some tips and tricks.
  • Analyze your form.
  • Talk shop and get your training questions answered.
  • And do it all in a friendly environment.

No scary big alpha male bodybuilder dudes. Nobody giving you dumb advice about how you’re going to “get too big” or “hurt yourself”. Nobody will make you cry or puke. No BS about “toning”, Jazzercise, or getting superskinny.

Just friendly folks. A welcoming space with lots of fun toys. Helpful advice. Other like-minded people. Lots of humour. And good information.

If you’re new to weight training, you’ll learn some of the important principles of getting strong while staying safe. If you’re already doing it, you’ll learn how to be better at it.

We might even bust out the sledgehammers. But only if you’re real nice.

We’ll cover:

  • What makes weight training “work”?
  • Why is weight training so awesome?
  • What techniques keep your body in proper alignment?
  • How can anyone — even YOU — learn to squat in just a few minutes?
  • What the heck is that crazy lift and why is it so damn FUN!? (And useful?)

Spaces are limited, so register now. This workshop will be co-ed.
