What Happens In The Clinic
Learn The Main Lifts
We teach the squat, press, deadlift, and bench press, time permitting, using the Starting Strength model.
Find Your Starting Weights
You leave knowing where to start so your first training sessions are appropriately challenging and productive.
Learn How Training Works Here
We cover warm-ups, basic training logistics, and how progress is tracked so you understand the process rather than just the movements.
See Whether We Are A Fit
The clinic also gives you a direct look at how coaching works at Chicago Strength & Conditioning before deciding on ongoing training.
Great Fit For
- New lifters who want to get started under expert supervision
- People returning to training who want a clean restart
- Experienced lifters who want a form check from a Certified Starting Strength Coach
- Visitors or remote lifters who want a single in-person session
What Comes Next
If the clinic goes well and you want to continue, the usual next step is Barbell Club.
If you already know you want more time up front, the 5-hour private onboarding option may be a better fit.
For most people, though, the Intro Barbell Clinic is the right first step.
