Congrats to our member of the month, Britt Wilson! Brit has accomplished so much this year at PDXstrength. We are always in awe of her impressive double under skills, she dialed down her push-ups like a boss, she dropped 12lbs, and she’s such a positive force in classes! We can hardly wait for what 2015 will unfold for Brit! Congrats on being our PDXstrength member of the month!!! Brit don’t Quit!
Why Set Goals?
Goal setting is used by top-level athletes, successful business-people and achievers in all fields. Setting goals gives you long-term vision and short-term motivation . It focuses your acquisition of knowledge, and helps you to organize your time and your resources so that you can make the very most of your life.
By setting sharp, clearly defined goals, you can measure and take pride in the achievement of those goals, and you’ll see forward progress in what might previously have seemed a long pointless grind. You will also raise your self-confidence , as you recognize your own ability and competence in achieving the goals that you’ve set.
Last year at PDXstrength we had great success with our goal setting workshop. Numerous members and coaches reached their goals for 2014. Taking that one hour to really focus and create a game plan to complete the goals that they set, helped tremendously.
We obviously would love for our athletes to reach their goals for 2015, so we are offering a goal setting workshop on January 10th, at noon.
Join a supportive and inspiring community as you share, and create your SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time Bound) goal game plan. This workshop will help with accountability, struggles and motivation to strive towards the goals you set.
In this workshop we will discuss and write down our goals for 2015. We will create a game plan for each goal and share them with each other. We will also talk about the month long nutrition challenge for those that would like to focus on their nutrition and alcohol consumption. Please bring a pen and your thoughts, ideas, dreams and drive! 2015 is going to be great!

To give thanks and appreciation to all our amazing members, we’d love for you to gift a buddy some fitness! On Saturday December 20th or 27th, bring a friend to our 8 am or 9 am boot camp class for free!

Our January Beginner Bootcamps are already filling up quickly. Before diving into our Group Strength and Conditioning classes, we require most athletes to take our 6 week Beginner course. In our Beginner bootcamp, we cover all of the basic movements we perform in PDXstrength and slowly introduce the high intensity of our workouts so folks aren’t just blindly racing into a tough workout and getting hurt. Safety is our priority, so we keep the Beginner classes small.
Once you complete your Beginner program, you will be able to sign up for PDXprep or at the discretion of your coach, begin taking our group strength and conditioning classes. Click the link below to sign up! 2015 is gonna be your year to excel!
