Built for People Who
Actually Lift
LiftStrong started because the fitness internet is broken. Too much gatekeeping, too much clickbait, too many “fitness influencers” selling cookie-cutter programs. We're here to fix that.
I grew up as the unathletic kid who was intimidated to even walk into a gym. When I finally did, I was overwhelmed by conflicting advice. Everyone had an opinion. Nobody had a plan.
So I did what any obsessive person does — I read everything. Research papers, training manuals, nutrition textbooks. I experimented on myself for a decade. And what I found is that building strength isn't complicated. The industry just makes it seem that way because confusion sells.
LiftStrong is the resource I wish existed when I started. Clear, actionable, science-backed. No subscription to unlock the good stuff. No “DM me for the secret.” Just the information you need to get strong.
