Starting Strength Coaching: One Hour Session
We offer 60 minute sessions with a Starting Strength Coach. During this time, we can work on 2-3 lifts, depending on your needs. Most often, we focus on the squat, press and deadlift. If you would like help with the bench or power clean, we can always schedule a second visit. These sessions can be scheduled during the week or on the weekend.
Price for one person for a 60 minute session is $120. Price for two people for a 60 minute session is $200. May not be used consecutively.
One Day Clinics: A Two Hour Coaching Session
Our One Day Clinic is a comprehensive, two hour tutorial with a Starting Strength Coach on the 4 main lifts: Squat, bench, deadlift and press. We will review and cover proper technique and performance of each lift, but this is a workout. We will go heavy enough to find errors in your form. We will also help your with programming and nutrition. Scheduling is by appointment only. Please allow for up to two hours to get through all 4 exercises. Our One Day Clinics are ONLY scheduled on the weekends, Saturday mornings from 10:30-12:30 or Sunday (TBD). We do not schedule clinics during the week.
Price for one person is $250. Price for two people for a clinic is $415. Contact us for group rates.

Jay put me through the paces for an hour. We worked squat, OHP, and deadlifts. I learned more in that hour than I have in the last five years on YouTube. As Rip says, everyone needs a coach. I highly recommend anyone working with a barbell in the greater Baltimore area go see Jay.
Jay has been coaching me for about a year and I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. He’s not only a great coach, but a good dude. I would recommend him to anybody who wants to learn how to lift properly. I just do what he tells me to do and my numbers just keep going up.
My wife and I had a session with Jay about a year ago. He was able to fix an issue with my wife’s deadlift form (Step 4) that she was struggling with despite having an online coach.
Also, his advice of “staying tight” throughout the body during the lift has been very useful for me.
