Why should teen girls lift?
Builds Strength: Duh! Weightlifting helps build muscle strength, which is essential for overall physical health, functionality, and performance.
Increases Bone Density: Weightlifting has been shown to increase bone density, reducing the risk of bone injuries and osteoporosis later in life.
Enhances Athletic Performance: Regardless of your sport, weightlifting will improve performance by increasing strength, power, and agility. Being stronger makes everything better!
Promotes Confidence: Achieving strength and fitness goals through weightlifting boosts self-esteem and confidence.
Teaches Discipline: Weightlifting requires consistency and dedication, helping teens develop discipline and goal-setting skills.
Reduces Risk of Injury: Strengthening muscles and bones through weightlifting (with proper technique!) can reduce the risk of injury during physical activities and sports.
Improves Mental Health: Regular exercise, including weightlifting, has been linked to improved mood and reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Empowers Independence: Learning proper lifting techniques and building strength empowers teens to take control of their own physical fitness and well-being.
Fosters Social Connections: Participating in weightlifting classes or group workouts can provide opportunities for social interaction and support from peers who are likeminded.
Promotes Long-Term Health: Establishing healthy habits like weightlifting during adolescence can set the foundation for a lifetime of physical fitness and wellness. Many people struggle when they are done with their competitive athletic career and getting involved with weightlifting can help with that transition because they already have experience in a fitness setting that is not solely focused on sport.

NO!!!! I love working with all athletes! I work hard to make this a well rounded strength program that will benefit all athletes! I also thinks it’s great to get multiple sports all mixed together!

The class is scheduled for 1 hour. It is great to get there 5-10 minutes early to get in any extra prehab you might need! We will occasionally run a few minutes over, but can always get them out right on time if needed!

I am working on an offering for a slightly younger age group, so stay tuned! I do allow 12 year olds to attend if they have already been a 1 on 1 client.
The facility I run classes out of also has a youth program you may be interested in. More info HERE
