| | WHAT IS A STRONGFIRST GYM?
A StrongFirst Accredited Gym is a facility whose ownership and management are committed to supporting the StrongFirst mission, embodying our Core Values, and following our Code. At the very minimum, two certified instructor designations must be held and maintained to qualify. This ensures that every student benefits not only from the depth of understanding of StrongFirst principles across several modalities, but also from the instructor's experience and dedication to pursing advanced knowledge, first class coaching skills, technical prowess, and a disciplined strength practice.

| | | | Controlling Gravity for Better Squats, Deadlifts, and Presses by Dr. Michael Hartle
In order for you to "lift," you must produce more force than the pull gravity has on the load. But what goes up must come down. If you’re only paying attention to one half of every squat, deadlift, and press—the concentric or acceleration phase—you’re missing out on a heap of strength and stability that comes from training the eccentric or deceleration phase. That kind of imbalance can set you up for injury down the road. It’s time to stop letting gravity boss you around and tame it to help, not hinder. READ |
| | | | With the release of The Quick and the Dead book, we’ve received several questions about how to deload push-ups using a band. Pavel outlines his preferred way in the book. In this week's video, Master StrongFirst Certified Instructor Karen Smith (and her assistant Master Instructor Pavel Macek) shares her favorite band-assisted drill to practice one-arm pushups that allows students to train a full range of motion.
