Your Strength, Our Box

February 28, 2010

StrengthBox Poster

After two whirlwind months of rumination, preparation, and sleep deprivation, (not to mention massive anticipation!), we are ready to open the StrengthBox for real. You know you want to come check us out. Here’s what will happen if you come train in our facility:

  • You’ll get stronger.
  • You’ll get leaner.
  • You’ll get faster.

It is my strong suspicion that these three elements will come together to produce the following effect:

  • You’ll get HAPPIER with your new lean, strong, fast, badass self.

How will we get you there, you ask? Well I’ll tell you. We’ll use natural human movements… that means we’ll only ask you to do things that make sense and have a real-world application. Why go to a gym where they tell you to lift nothing heavier than 3lbs when your groceries weigh more than that? If you fall down a hole, all the jazzaerobicize in the world won’t help you get out. But StrengthBox will. If your parent or sibling or child passes out/falls/gets stuck under something heavy, those three pound dumbbells will have prepared you not at all to lift the heaviness. But StrengthBox will have.

Did I mention that people who can lift heavy things, pull their own body weight, and run really fast also tend to be dead sexy? Well, there’s that, too. Also, they’re more fun at parties.

So come check us out… our lovely home on the web is StrengthBox.ca. We’d love to hear what your goals are, and we’d love even more to help you reach them.

P.S. Are you pregnant? About to be pregnant? Recently pregnant? Three years postpartum and still trying to shake the last of the baby weight? Girlfriend, we need to talk. Drop me a line at Liz at StrengthBox dot ca. We’re going to make you even more amazing than you already are.

Recess! Cliffhanger! Part Two!

February 21, 2010

Cliffhanger update: StrengthBox opens its doors March 1st. Shake off your lingering winter insulation at our unique training space in East York… we’ll get you freakishly fit in groups or one on one! Check out www.strengthbox.ca for more info on rates and just what it is we’re doing over there.

This past Recess was bruuutal! I brought out the big guns to whip the Dolls into top shape, developing their explosive power and superhuman speed. 24 minutes of intervals fit the bill and then some… the lovely skating ladies barely had enough energy left over to leap into the foam pit willy-nilly!

Exciting Cliffhanger: Update!

February 8, 2010

Ok, we all know that Recess! is awesome. (If you don’t already know that, you really need to come out and try a class). We’ll continue playing tag and flying into foam pits at The Monkey Vault (Saturday mornings, 10:30 and 11:30, come on down, $15 cheap) until it’s no fun anymore (never!). But what would you say if I told you that Recess! will soon have TWO fantastic homes? That’s right, kids, the Big Exciting Cliffhanger announcement is here:

The Original Recess! will continue, at 10:30 and 11:30am at The Monkey Vault. Recess II: Son of Recess! will begin in the not too distant future at our (prepare for Epic! Announcement!) Very Own Training Space in East York. Greg Carver (he of MovNat fame) and Howie Tse (firefighter extraordinaire) are joining me in opening StrengthBox, a training facility that will redefine your very human existence.

StrengthBox will emphasize natural movement, powerful strength development, high intensity intervals, and gymnastic skills. We’ll be working in small groups and one on one… We are open and available to any and every skill level, and we’d really like to welcome you to the StrengthBox family! Life should feel good, people. Let us show you how to get lean, strong, and capable of superhuman feats.
