There is a LOT of misinformation and myths about weight training, passed down by many well-intentioned coaches, trainers, and gym buddies.
I should know, I once was one! That was before I got a degree in kinesiology and became a personal trainer and coach.
But, NOTHING bothered me more than my own kids coming home from the gym with the same, old, and false BRO-SCIENCE.
That is why I created this site…
to write training programs for my own teens,
and now they are available for your growing, teen athletes.

How to use this site…
ALL the advice on this site is FREE, including all tutorials, advice, instruction, and program content.
I just ask that you pay ($5) for my workout tracking spreadsheets available for both my lifting programs and skills training.
Tracking you progress is one of the keys to success in the weight room and on the court. It doesn’t matter how many videos you watch or advice you read only, it’s only hard work and strength of character to consistently put in the reps that will lead to gains speed, strength, and skill.
