Semi-private coaching combines individualized strength programming with hands-on coaching in a small-group setting. Sessions are limited to 6 lifters, allowing everyone to follow their own program while receiving personal instruction, technique guidance, and support from an experienced strength coach.

Semi-private coaching is designed for adults ages 18 and older who want to build strength, improve their fitness, and make consistent progress. Whether you're completely new to barbell training or an experienced lifter, your program is tailored to your individual abilities, goals, and training experience.All participants must be at least 18 years old to enroll.

Each 90-minute session follows your individualized strength program, which tracked through the Coachrx app. You'll train alongside other members while your coach moves between lifters, providing hands-on instruction, technique corrections, and guidance throughout your workout. New lifters receive additional attention during warm-up sets, while experienced lifters are coached through their heavier sets. This allows everyone to train at their own pace while receiving personalized coaching.

Getting started is simple. Booke your $200 Intro to Barbell Clinic, a private session where you'll learn the foundational barbell lifts and receive hands-on instruction. After completing the clinic, you can choose between our 2-day ($399/month) or 3-day ($499/month) semi-private coaching memberships and begin your strength training program. ​

For safe and effective barbell training, we recommend the following:Shirt: A comfortable cotton T-shirt.Shorts or pants: Athletic clothing that allows you to squat and move freely.Footwear: Firm, flat-soled shoes such as Converse or Vans, or dedicated weightlifting shoes. Soft, cushioned running shoes are not appropriate for barbell training because they provide a less stable surface under load.Weightlifting belt: Optional.No specialized equipment is required to get started.

You're never too old to start building strength. At Classic Barbell, we work with adults of different ages, experience levels, and physical abilities. If you have an injury or mobility limitation, we can modify exercise selection, range of motion, and training intensity to accommodate your indivual needs when appropriate. Certain injuries or medical conditions may require clearance from a healthcare professional before beginning.Our goal is to help you train safely, build strength progressively, and improve your physical capabilities over time.
