About this event

Description

Weight Lifting 101 is designed for anyone who is new to resistance training or looking to build a strong foundation with proper technique. In this small group setting, you’ll learn how to safely and effectively perform essential lifts such as squats, deadlifts, bench presses, and more—reducing the risk of injury while maximizing results. This program focuses on building confidence in the weight room by breaking down movements step by step, correcting form, and answering questions in a supportive environment. You’ll also learn how to structure a balanced workout routine that fits your individual goals, fitness level, and schedule. Whether you’ve been unsure where to start or want to feel more comfortable lifting weights, Weight Lifting 101 will give you the tools, knowledge, and confidence to train safely and successfully.


Meeting dates are set for this group and will only be moved if the instructor cannot attend the class. Refunds for missed class will only happen if the instructor is unavailable for one of the dates and a makeup is not offered.
