Everyone is welcome at Everyday Strength. Everyone has different body types, abilities, and fitness levels. We ask that you come to the gym ready to do your best with kindness and respect for yourself and others.

Discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, or gender identity), national origin, disability, or age is illegal. We will not tolerate it from anyone (coaches or athletes) in this gym.

No. Everyday Strength has specific programming and only offers group classes and personal training with a coach. We do not provide “open gym” time at this time.

Maybe. Maybe not, if that is your only goal. Everyday Strength’s program promotes functional strength, mobility, and stamina. Clients are responsible for the calories put into their bodies. Weight Loss is and always will be a mathematical equation, so the question is, are you ready to look at your lifestyle? Weight loss is not our primary focus. Some of our members lose weight, and some gain weight. Our members who consistently come to the gym will likely see changes in their body composition and appearance over time, gaining lean muscle mass and improving their muscle-to-fat ratio. They will see improvements in strength, mobility, and stamina. Many report looking and feeling better, even if the number on the scale does not go down.  We encourage members to make small changes at a time to see sustainable results.

Sign up for our Trial Membership, where you get four weeks for the price of two. This way, you can get a feel for our gym and program. 

It depends…were you able to attend classes regularly during your 4-week trial? If you are ready to commit, the longer-duration memberships are the least expensive way. However, if you are new to functional strength training and did not attend regularly during your trial, starting with a shorter membership, 14 weeks, would be a good start. You will pay more monthly but won’t be committed to a longer contract that may not work for you. Shorter-length contracts also work best for those with upcoming travel plans or anticipating a move or career change. Then you need to decide whether or not you want to come three times a week or pick unlimited for 4 to 5 times a week.

You may Upgrade during your current contract if you are on a 14-week membership and love it so much you want to move to a 26 or 52-week commitment. However, you may not downgrade from a longer-duration membership to a shorter one until your contract ends. If you are on a 3 x week contract and want to upgrade to an unlimited, you may. Once again, you may not downgrade from unlimited to 3 x week until the end of your current contract. All changes must be requested in writing at least two weeks in advance. When the upgraded membership goes into effect, you will start a new contract period.

You may do so in writing at least two weeks prior to the contracted end date. You may also end your contract by paying the full amount upfront.

You can make changes in the app under finances. Please note credit and debit cards are charged an extra $5 a month to cover fees associated with using them. Late payments due to insufficient funds, expired credit cards, disputed charges, etc are charged $25 late fee monthly. Contracts not paid in full will be assigned to a collection agency.

We program for five days a week: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. However, we realize not everyone can attend five days a week, and many attend three times a week. You will see the best progress with 4 or 5 days a week. We do not recommend less than two days a week as you will likely have a difficult time achieving your fitness goals, getting over the hump of being sore all the time, and you will have slower progress with the more technical movements.

A spot is held for you when you sign up for a class. If you know you can’t make a class, we ask you to cancel your reservation with as much notice as possible. People may be waiting on the waitlist or watching the schedule for openings. The “late cancellation” window begins 1 hour before class, and you will be charged a late cancellation fee. Attending the classes you sign up for is about respect for your coaches, classmates, and yourself. When you fail to show up or cancel late, you deprive others of the opportunity for others to train.

No, ideally. We understand unavoidable emergencies occasionally happen, but please allow enough time to get to class and prepare to start on time. Being on time and ready is also about respect for your coaches, classmates, and yourself. When you show up late, it delays and disrupts the entire class. If you are running late, please let your coaches know. Late shows are subject to a late show fee.

We do not put memberships on hold for time away, sickness, or injury. We have membership options that can accommodate travel schedules. We are skilled at modifying workouts for individual injuries. We have helped athletes train with modifications through severe injuries. We have dealt with injuries ourselves. We believe that life needs to go on (more than ever!) when you are dealing with an injury. Please do not come to the gym if you are sick or presenting with potential sickness symptoms. Contact us to discuss your circumstance if it is a unique or sustained sickness.

As an athlete at Everyday Strength, we expect you to work hard, do your best, and play a positive role in our community. Leave your ego at the door. Results come from hard work and dedication to the programming. When you show up with integrity, it sets an example and encourages others to do the same. Support and encourage each other; we train as a group to maximize the overall results. We will not tolerate negative or hateful attitudes and comments. We also expect you to uphold half of the athlete/coach relationship, which means communicating your needs and concerns and accepting feedback and input from your coaches. The coach/athlete relationship is essential as it is a critical component of a positive gym atmosphere. If we cannot resolve relationship issues among athletes or athletes and coaches, we may ask you to discontinue training with us.

Like you, we train hard. We test out movements and workouts on ourselves. We will never ask you to do something we wouldn’t do or believe to be beyond your ability. The programming is methodical and systematic. We constantly monitor energy levels and progress. We know what it is like to be in the different stages of learning, and we will do our best to ensure that you see a successful progression as an athlete.

We will strive to help you do your best every day. Our goal is to teach you to perform technical movements safely and efficiently. We will encourage you to work to your capacity but never push you beyond what we believe you can accomplish with safety and good form. We can individually modify workouts (as required) to accommodate different fitness levels, injuries, or other limitations in the class environment.

We are receptive to questions and feedback and do our best to answer your questions or concerns about your training, fitness, and health.

For people already doing Functional Strength Training and are now pregnant, this is safe unless there are specific complications and your doctor has recommended NO exercise. Otherwise, we will work with you throughout your pregnancy on movements, range of motion, and intensity modifications. Pregnancy is an exciting time and a very individual process.

We do not currently have childcare for every class, but we offer a Kid & Me Functional Strength Training Class where babies to school-age kids can attend class with their parents, grandparents, or caregivers. Please see the schedule for details.

At Everyday Strength, our priority in coaching is the consistent quality of movement, followed by intensity. A high coach-to-athlete ratio allows us to accomplish this during training sessions. The athlete is responsible for following the coaches’ specific instructions. There is an inherent risk of injury in ALL sports, but we work hard at Everyday Strength to minimize this risk with structure, explicit instruction, and interactive and attentive coaches.
