Questionnaire

YOUR JOURNEY TO SUCCESS BEGINS WITH OUR GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHER

Our goal is to help you become the best lifter you can be. In order to do that, we need to understand:

Your goals and concerns, your current lifting ability is (if any) and whether you have participated in other sports, the time commitment you are able to make to your training. We can start that process via e-mail and then explore things further during a free initial visit. Once we agree to work together, the training process can begin the same day, if you wish. That process is somewhat different for those with Weightlifting experience versus those who are new to the sport.

One way to help us get to know you is completing the attached optional questionnaire here.
