Strength Training in Hyde Park, Boston

— FAQ
Common questions
I've never lifted before. Is StrengthCamp for beginners?
Yes. All levels train in the same room. The coach scales the weight and the movement to you, and your first two weeks are deliberately lighter while you learn the lifts. Most newcomers leave more confident in the squat rack than they expected.
When does StrengthCamp meet?
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 7:00 PM, plus Saturday at 7:00 AM. Come as often as your membership allows — most members train three to four times a week.
How is StrengthCamp different from BootCamp?
BootCamp is conditioning — high intensity, high heart rate, the hardest 60 minutes of your week. StrengthCamp is a strength program: barbell and dumbbell work on a year-long progression, with your lifts tested every 8 weeks. Plenty of members do both.
How is this different from CrossFit?
We're not a CrossFit affiliate. Our programming is periodized, joint-conscious, and progressive. Different room, different goals.
What if I join in the middle of a block?
You can start any week. Whatever week the room is on, your first two weeks are scaled down while you find your loads — then you fold into the plan with everyone else.
What happens if I miss a week?
Nothing breaks. The plan is written down, so you pick up where the room is and scale back for a session or two. Miss three weeks or more and you simply repeat the two-week on-ramp.
Will I get bigger? I just want to be lean.
Strength training preserves and builds muscle, which raises your resting metabolic rate. That's how you get leaner without living on the cardio deck. "Big" doesn't happen by accident.
What about my back / knees / shoulders?
Day-one movement assessment catches the limitations. Programs are written around them, not in spite of them.
Is there a contract?
The unlimited membership is $125 bi-weekly plus a one-time $199 registration fee, and it auto-renews — you can cancel after three months. The registration fee is waived if you commit to 12 months. Prefer no commitment? Drop-in and class packs are available.
