NEW AT THE SCHOOL OF STRENGTH  | FEBRUARY 14, 2019
Ladies and Gentlemen,

Love is in the air—and whether you are celebrating with your significant other, training partner, best friend, or taking some time to treat yourself nicely (swings are always good for that), we wish you a Happy Valentine's Day. 

If you haven't already signed up for the May 4th Tactical Strength Challenge, the "get your free t-shirt" deadline is March 22nd. Don't miss out on this year's original TSC design...and on a great day of deadlifts, pull-ups, and snatches. Anyone interested but not sure how to start training, head to a StrongFirst Accredited Gym or find a StrongFirst certified instructor. They'd love to help. And if you've been competing but want to challenge your deadlift personal best, grab a copy of Reload: Your Barbell Strength Blueprint. 

Happy lifting.
