Home / Getting Started / Intro to BTS

We invite you to become healthier, faster, and stronger; walking in the door can change your life, so SIGN UP NOW! You don’t need to lose weight before starting. You don’t need to be able to run before starting. You don’t need to be in better shape before starting.

We take you AS YOU ARE and help you along your personal journey to becoming healthier, faster and stronger! Be sure to wear comfortable workout clothes, tennis shoes and bring a bottle of water, whatever makes sense to you.

Fundamentals

Our 4-class Fundamentals will orient our new members to Birdtown Strength and our programming. This general preparedness course is designed to set you up for success. We want to understand your goals and expectations. In return, you will be coached through 4 one-hour classes where we can help set you up for success at BTS. These classes will also allow us to learn more about the way you move and where your strengths and weaknesses lie. You will learn the essentials and other popular movements and skills.

Each class will involve learning new skills, practicing those skills, maybe even a short WOD and cool down. Come prepared to learn, prepared to think and prepared to sweat!

The standard Fundamentals Course is included with the first month of your training plan. Once the Fundamental classes have been successfully completed, all scheduled classes are available to you via the online schedule. This is the first day of the rest of your life! And you are going to rock it!

Private Fundamentals

If our standard monthly Fundamentals course does not fit your needs, reach out! A Private Fundamentals course can be arranged during other hours or beginning at a different time during the month. Reach out to us at  info@birdtownstrength.com to learn more.

Let’s get started!

Ever wonder what the vibe for open gym is? The picture sums it up. Amanda is doing today’s workout and Claudia is getting in some extra stretching. Open gym is a time where you can do anything you want (safely and appropriately of course). Open gyms are every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday at noon and Sunday 9-11am. Come hang out!

Veterans Day is a day to reflect upon the heroism of those who died in our country’s service. This year’s Veteran’s day workout honors Navy SEAL Chad Wilkinson who died by suicide on Oct. 29, 2018, due to the effects of numerous deployments, several TBIs, blast-wave injuries, and PTSD. Our goal is to honor Chad’s life and legacy, and to raise awareness for suicide prevention.

For time:
1,000 weighted step-ups

♀ 35-lb ruck, 20-inch box
♂ 45-lb ruck, 20-inch box

Today’s workout is a long grind. Complete as a team, with a partner, or individually for time. Reduce the load and height of the step-up as needed. If you have completed this workout previously, look back and use that information to help you tackle today’s effort.
