Life Takes Strength. Train For It.

Stronghold is a monthly subscription program that helps busy adults turn fitness into a true foundation in life. We aim to establish fitness, family, and faith as unshakeable "strongholds" through practical strength training that carries over into every other area of your life. Delivered via Teambuildr, the workouts use only dumbbells, kettlebells, and bodyweight - 4 efficient sessions per week that take 30 minutes or less and can be done anywhere. No fluff, no fads: just training that leaves you energized, resilient, and ready for what matters most. Join for $25/month and start building strength that lasts. 

Inside Stronghold, We Believe...

#1:  Fitness Should Add to Your Life - Not Drain From It.

In a world that demands more from you every day - work, family, commitments - most fitness programs pile on the pressure, leaving you wiped out and wondering why you started. But what if training actually gave you energy? What if it sharpened your focus, boosted your mood, and made you better at everything else?

Stronghold flips the script. Our strength training sessions are efficient, intelligently programmed, and built to fit around your real schedule. You'll finish workouts feeling accomplished and ready to tackle the day, not crawling to the couch. Busy adults like you deserve training that recharges your life, not depletes it.

#2: Strong Bodies Help Us Become Strong Spouses, Parents, and Leaders.

Weakness shows up in subtle ways: snapping at your kids after a long day, skipping quality time with your spouse because you're too tired, or holding back in leadership roles at work or church. Physical strength isn't just about lifting - it's the foundation for showing up fully in the roles that matter most.

In Stronghold, we train with purpose: functional movements that build the durability you need to lead your family, support your spouse, and step up in your community. Members tell us they feel more patient, present, and capable. If you're ready to turn your body into a tool for better relationships and impact, this is where it starts.

#3: Strength Training Does Not Need to Be Complicated, But It Does Need to Be Effective.

The fitness industry bombards you with endless gadgets, apps, and "revolutionary" methods that overcomplicate everything. You end up confused, inconsistent, and no stronger than when you started. But real progress comes from proven basics, not bells and whistles.

Stronghold keeps it straightforward: Progressive dumbbell, kettlebell, and bodyweight workouts that deliver steady gains in strength, mobility, and endurance. No guesswork, just results you can measure and feel. If you're tired of complexity holding you back, join a program that delivers simplicity with serious impact.

#4 - Excuses are Valid Challenges That Require a Proper Solution.

We get it: "no time," "too tired," or "life's too chaotic" aren't just cop-outs - they're real hurdles in a demanding world. But ignoring them keeps you stuck, while most programs shame you into quitting.

Stronghold meets you where you are. Here's how we turn common barriers into non-issues:

Limited on time?

Stronghold workouts can be completed in 30 minutes or less - 4 focused days per week that fit even the busiest calendar. Miss a day or need a schedule switch? Train at any time throughout your day by simply picking up where you left off.

Don’t have a gym membership?

Don’t need one! If you have a set of dumbbells, a kettlebell, and an open space, you can complete every workout and develop serious strength. If you do enjoy going to the gym, take Stronghold with you in your pocket for a proven plan for success.

Been a while since you last worked out?

Stronghold is perfect for you. Every exercise includes coaching & guidance for modifications at your fingertips. If you need additional help, a coach is just a message away!

Love fitness but don’t know what to do?

Walk into any space with a powerful checklist to maximize your time & efficiency. You’ll instantly know which exercises to do, how to do them, sets, reps, rest periods, and more.

Turn those barriers into breakthroughs - members overcome them every day and come out stronger.

#5: True Strength Comes From Training With a Deeper Purpose

Most programs stop at the physical. You get stronger for a while, but when life hits hard - loss, stress, doubt - the gains feel hollow and motivation fades.

Stronghold is built different. We believe your body is a gift on loan, meant to serve your family, your community, and your faith. Training here creates the kind of steady, quiet strength that carries you when everything else shakes. Members consistently say the consistency of lifting builds discipline that spills into prayer, patience, and purpose. If you're ready for training rooted in something eternal, you've found it.
