Project STRONG is for women of any age who are ready to increase strength, improve movement capacity, build a more resilient body and mind, and most importantly, become more confident with the barbell. Whether you have specific strength goals or are just ready for a new approach to fitness that rewards not just dedication and consistency but the bravery of pursuing something tough in the face of intimidation, Project STRONG is the program for you.
Are you looking to get stronger, build lean muscle, increase bone density, and just feel like even more of a badass living life? We’ve got you covered! Project STRONG is designed to be accessible to anyone who is brand new to strength training OR somewhat familiar with the barbell but new to strength focused programming.
We'll spend our first week learning (or relearning) how to squat, deadlift, and press properly (including modifications that are appropriate for your body) and the remainder of the series getting #strongertogether. This means attendance during the first week is especially important so make sure your calendar is open, or contact Coach Meg to schedule a makeup session.
When we're done, you'll know how to navigate the weight room in any gym and approach your lifting session without fear as well all the extras around properly fueling your newfound STRONG endeavors (things like warming up properly, eating to grow/maintain your ass kicking muscles, how to incorporate cardio), and anything else that might help you on your journey to lifting glory.
During Project Strong you will...
“KELSEY SAYS: “As a woman, barbell work is supposed to be intimidating, right? Meghan inspires me with her strength and passion for barbells. She takes this daunting strength tool and makes it fun and exciting. I started with very little barbell experience and her wonderful understanding of technique has helped me become more confident with each move. I hope to continue working with her in both nutrition and barbells to get stronger than ever.””
Regardless if you plan to coach, mentor, or just train for your own personal development you will not be disappointed in your choice of signing up to get certified or just get credit for attending a kettlebell certification. Whether you are a fitness professional or kettlebell enthusiast, any Kettlebell instructor certification goes well beyond three life changing days.
Build dramatic strength, explosive power and cardiovascular endurance. Become an expert KB Instructor or just look and move like one. Kettlebell training develops a wide range of attributes: slow and dynamic strength, various types of endurance, muscle hypertrophy, fat loss, health, etc. Whether pursued as an individual challenge or to establish a professional qualification, we will train to pass the same extensive testing requirements of a KB Instructor. You want to be stronger, and you want to get there safely. Strength with safety is our specialty—and no one in the world does this better than our Certified KB Coaches.
We are preparing for the STRONGFIRST KB Certification that will take place SPRING 2018. Plan to train for a minimum of 6 months, ideally 8 mos. if you want to certify and pass. Plan to take the first 8-week session to get a taste of this training style. Commit to all 8-week sessions and become a Hardstyle Human!
We get a lot of questions about how to prepare for Kettlebell certifications. With that said, we wanted to share our own experience in preparing for the rigors of the ultimate kettlebell certification weekend by offering small group training for those who are interested in taking their kettlebell experience to the next level.
Regardless if you plan to coach, mentor, or just train for your own personal development you will not be disappointed in your choice of signing up to get certified or just get credit for attending a kettlebell certification. Whether you are a fitness professional or kettlebell enthusiast, any Kettlebell instructor certification goes well beyond three life changing days.
A Kettlebell certification weekend is like nothing else you'll ever experience. It’s a journey of strength and self discovery. There really isn’t a physically demanding certification (that we're aware of) that even comes close to this experience. And, what you learn about strength and human movement is unmatched, especially when you are learning under the best in the world.
You need to maximally prepare for 2-3 INCREDIBLE days of learning and physical stamina to become a certified coach (or just move like one).
Now that you have some background, we want to provide the plan below.
During our Team Training Phases we will...
Includes meeting 1x/week in your Hardstyle Training Tribe, an individualized training plan for you to utilize in your home or during access to Open Gym at FUELhouse, and opportunity to access our T/TH KB classes for a discounted rate.
If there is a need to offer more times we can accommodate based on demand and number of participants interested. We offer Kettlebell Classes at FUELhouse on Tuesdays and Thursdays and encourage you to take 1-2 of these classes in conjunction with your small group training sessions to work on your skills and get more eyes on YOU! We can offer a discounted package of classes for you to purchase if you are interested in attending a class(es).
Remember that this is about practicing the drills and perfecting form while increasing the conditioning needed to have a successful Cert weekend. We will be smart and prepare you to arrive at your weekend ready to learn and succeed, not suffer and fail!
We look forward to working with you and coaching you on your way to your success in achieving your KB certification.
1. Rocking connects the shoulders to the hips. It teaches them to cooperate. When the shoulders move into flexion, the hips do too. When the shoulders move into extension, so do the hips. This is foundational for the gait pattern as opposite limbs not only move together when we walk or run, they mirror each other; at least they should. Rocking connects and coordinates our opposing limbs.
2. Rocking restores our posture. To move well and remove any limitations from our body, we need to have optimal, reflexive posture. When we rock, we reestablish or reaffirm the cervical curve and the lumbar curve in our spine. Having said that, if you rock, please hold your head up! Unless of course you are looking for lost contacts or money on the floor. Otherwise, your head should be up and level with the horizon.
3. Rocking integrates all our joints together; it makes the body “whole” and doesn’t isolate it into parts and pieces. It helps mobilize the toes, feet, ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, neck and wrists. Want to restore immobile ankles? Rock. Want to recover from hip or knee surgery? Rock. Want to heal angry shoulders? Rock. Rocking teaches the brain how to hold, or stabilize, the joints, while the body moves.
4. Rocking activates the vestibular system in a linear, forward and back, motion. This activation helps feed the brain information about where the body is and what all the parts of the body are doing. This forward and back motion also soothes the brain; the mind and emotions. It can calm you down. It can allow you to enter into a more restful state.
5. Rocking helps keep the back happy. Rocking can help soothe back pain and even chase it away until it becomes a rare occurrence. For back discomfort, rocking is the number one “go to.” Who wouldn’t want to be able to rock throughout their life if it would help with back pain?
Join us at the Original Strength Pressing RESET Workshop in Seattle, WA at FUELhouse Gym, Saturday, November 4th, 2017. We will teach you how to restore and rebuild your Original Strength by relearning the foundation of your strength. The OS Pressing RESET Workshop is intended for any breathing human being. In this workshop you will learn how the human body (your body) is capable of remembering the way it was created to move. No matter your age, health, physical condition.
What's your dryland routine? If your answer primarily involves "pint-lifting" at your favorite aprés ski spot, you have your work cut out for you. However, it's never too early (or late... for you pint-lifters out there) to begin training for snow season. Getting and staying fit for your winter sport is a year-round activity if you want to avoid injury, improve your performance, increase endurance, and get the most out of your season pass.
With ski/snowboard season just around the corner, we want your body ready for those long days on the slopes! If you haven’t been working out during the off-season…you might be in some trouble! Cross-training your body for your winter sport will give you more strength on the mountain and can help prevent injuries.If you haven’t been cross-training, don’t worry, it is not too late, we have the solution for you and your buds.

PROGRAM DESIGN:
Our mission and focus is to make sure you don’t get left behind on the slopes. Our solid winter sports conditioning program, designed by elite training staff at FUELhouse gym and in partnership with sports chiropractors from Kinetic Sports Rehab, physical therapists from MTI Physical Therapy and local NW ski instructors, develops aerobic and anaerobic fitness, muscular endurance and strength, fast-twitch speed and agility, balance and coordination. Alpine skiing, Nordic skiing, ice-skating, and snowboarding are all intense terrain sports that require a high level of fitness for skill improvement and injury prevention.
It doesn’t matter what level you are, to avoid injuries and prepare for the demands of the terrain, every winter athlete should prepare with 8-10 weeks of dryland training. As the name implies, dryland training, incorporates strength training and mimics the movements you'll be doing on the snow, ice, and everything in between.
Our classes will feature a mix of strength, balance, plyometric, and cardiovascular exercise aimed at strengthening specifically for skiing, snowboarding, cross country, skate, and snowshoeing using a variety of equipment from your bodyweight, barbells and kettlebells. A typical class will progress from a 10-15 minute core warm up, to 30-45 minutes of moderate to high intensity exercise featuring varying exercises every week, and conclude with a 5 minute full body reset before you leave.
Our second mission beyond fitness is to provide a platform for snowsports enthusiasts to mix, mingle and congregate in preparation for when the snow begins to fly. FUELhouse gym not only is an elite training gym but a community gathering space for those who love all things PNW.
