Strength and Size Starter Program
“Build muscle and functional strength efficiently.”
What your issues tend to be
You feel ‘old’ and not as strong as you used to be. You’d like to train more but you are not sure how to do it properly and are worried about injury.
You know that building muscle is good for long term health and hormones, but you don’t have time to train like a bodybuilder.
You want to build functional strength and muscle, without spending hours in the gym. You want to be able to deal with whatever life throws at you, without injuring yourself.
Perhaps you have some weights at home but don’t know how to make the best use of them. Maybe you have no equipment yet but would like to train at home and are wondering what is best to get.
Or perhaps you are just sick of waiting for the machines in the gym, and would rather get your workout done with minimal equipment.
What you need right now
You need someone to cut through the YouTube bullsh*t and teach you the key principles behind strength and muscle building for normal people, not gym rats.
You need an expert you trust to show you the correct techniques and training methods to reach your goals.
You need a program to follow that is straightforward to understand, involves minimal equipment and still gets you the results you want.
Strength & Size Starter Program
The Strength & Size Starter Program is designed to build your confidence, increase your training knowledge and get you tangible results without spending hours in the gym.
We do this by coaching you in person, in a workshop format, so that we can address your specific issues and starting level. Along with the workshops, you will receive a monthly training program based on the exercises we cover in the workshops. This program will maximise your available time and equipment to get results over a 3-month period.
The Strength & Size Starter Program consists of:
- 3 in-person monthly workshops, at our base in east London.
- A small group environment (max 1:6 coach to athlete ratio) so that you get plenty of individual attention and feedback.
- A 3-month written training program based on each workshop’s content, which builds in complexity as you progress through the workshop series.
- Feedback and advice from the coach as you work through the training program in your own time, at home or in your local gym.
Each workshop covers a different type of training approach to building strength & muscle, utilising different equipment, such as bodyweight, resistance bands, dumbbells and barbells.
You can do all three workshops for a fully rounded training program, or do a single workshop as a standalone event.
Workshops
Workshop 1: Bodyweight, Bands & Plyos
This is our simplest workshop in terms of equipment – all you need is your own bodyweight and a couple of resistance bands. We recommend this workshop as a starting point, especially if you are not a regular gym goer.
Workshop 2: Dumbbells
How do you train the whole body if you only have a few dumbbells? This workshop will show you how. Dumbbells are incredibly versatile and you can build impressive muscles with just this implement.
Workshop 3: Barbells
The original and best! We love the barbell for building pure strength. Whether at home or in the gym, you only need a handful of exercises to get exceptional results with barbell training. Since barbell exercises tend to be more technical than other types of training, we recommend this workshop to ensure you are lifting with correct technique.
Who is the Strength & Size Starter Program for?
The Strength & Size Starter Program is best for people who want to get stronger and build muscle mass for everyday strength and long term health.
The Program is suitable for those who are new to strength training or have tried it before but not achieved the results they want.
You do not have to be strong to start this Program! The equipment needs are basic, and you only need your own bodyweight to get started.

Do I need any equipment to do this program?
You don’t need any equipment to get started, as the first workshop requires very little. You may want to purchase some resistance bands after doing the first workshop, but this is optional. You can also use the equipment in a local gym if you don’t want to have it at home.
Is there an online option?
Currently there is not an online-only option. The workshops are in person, as we can deliver a highly effective and personalised experience when we see you in person.
Is this Program just for men?
Absolutely not, this program is also suitable for women who want to put on strength and size efficiently, with minimal equipment.
