Our training philosophy is based around one thing above all else; the principle idea that physical strength is one of the most important qualities a human being can possess. That is why the primary focus of our training is on getting brutally strong. No matter what your sport or hobby, be it football, MMA, skiing or rock climbing, your performance can be dramatically improved by getting significantly stronger. That is because strength is the basis for all athletic qualities.
If you want to:
• Run faster
• Hit harder
• Jump higher
• Build muscle
• Lose fat
• Improve your endurance
• Bulletproof yourself against injuries
• Enhance your quality of life
• And boost your confidence and self esteem…
You have to do one thing, first and foremost- GET STRONGER!
That is why, in lieu of gimmickry and flashy nonsense such as stability and balance training, we focus our attention on building real world, functional strength. This can only be done with barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, bodyweight exercises, ropes, tires, sleds and other non traditional implements and methods not found in the majority of gyms. Machines, mirrors, slide boards, speed ladders and Bosu Balls contribute nothing to strength or performance and thus are a complete waste of time for most athletes and weekend warriors.
To get strong you need to train in an environment that fosters hard work and intensity. This can’t be achieved at sterile, commercialized, “fitness centers” with easy listening music and fancy machines. Which is precisely why you won’t find either of these at Renegade Gym.
While our primary focus is on building strength it should be noted that we don’t train powerlifters or Olympic lifters. We borrow training concepts and ideas from both disciplines and blend them into our own unique system designed to create well rounded, explosively powerful, athletic freaks. Strength is only useful if you can apply it in real world situations and can repeatedly display it time and time again, long into the fourth quarter of a game or the end of a long day of snowboarding or surfing.
At Renegade Gym we build modern day warriors who are not only strong, but highly conditioned enough to actually use that strength when it counts.
