We have been training women locally to lift weights and strength train since the late 80’s. When we started Fay’s Fitness in 1993, our motto was “Women Should be Strong”.

Back then, our whole business model was to 1) educate women on the benefits of strength training and 2) help women learn how to strength train properly. We recognized the benefits of strength training for women. Women could build strong muscles and strong bones. They could shape their bodies and with the additional muscle added, would have a kickass metabolism that would help them maintain a healthy weight.

And then we trained women to workout – hundreds and hundreds of them. We have had nearly 600 women come and train at our gym over the past 30 years.

Barb and I keep adapting and learning new ways to train. With all this learning, adapting and helping others in the gym get better at their workouts, it was easy to lose sight of the basics which our whole business was based on. We still train people, but most of the training is with people that have been to our gym in the past or have some experience.

So it’s a good time to get back to basics. In fact, there has never been a better time.

Strength Training 101 for Women is basic strength training. It starts at the beginning.

Is this you?

• Do you understand that strength training has benefit to you but don’t know where to start?
• Are you intimidated by a gym setting where everyone seems to know what they’re doing but you?
