⭐ Five Star Friday: Karen! ⭐
“Excellent workout, wonderful people, fantastic facility. Well done.” — Karen
Karen may be a newer member, but she jumped into TrAk head-first — thanks to a friend’s nudge — and hasn’t looked back. 💪
She’s the kind of person we love coaching:
✔️ Brings real effort
✔️ Asks great questions
✔️ Wants to understand how and why things work
That curiosity and willingness to learn is what leads to real progress — and it helps us coach even better.
We’re fired up to have Karen as part of the TrAk fam and excited to see where her journey goes from here. This is just the beginning. 🔥
Drop a ⭐ below to welcome Karen and show her some love!

🔥 Wednesday Weekly Review 🔥
Another week in the books at TrAk — and another step forward across the board.
This past week we saw:
💪 Progression in our strength cycle
🔥 Conditioning sessions that tested grit and built capacity
🏅 New attendance milestones hit by members
📈 Personal records stacked up
😂 And plenty of laughs in between sets
That’s the magic of showing up consistently — the progress sneaks up on you.
Stronger lifts. Better conditioning. More confidence. More energy for life outside the gym.
It’s never just about the workout.
It’s about the people, the community, and building something sustainable together — one session at a time.
Proud of this crew and excited for what’s coming next.
On to the next week 💪🔥

🔥 Movement Monday: Med Ball Rotational Throws 🔥
At TrAk, we don’t pick exercises just because they look cool or make you sweat.
We choose them because they train the body as a system — not a collection of isolated parts.
That’s why we love med ball rotational throws.
This isn’t just “core work.”
It’s training myofascial slings, motor unit recruitment, and force transfer from the ground, through the hips and trunk, and out through the upper body.
In real life, strength doesn’t happen in straight lines.
You twist. You rotate. You decelerate. You change direction.
Med ball rotation throws:
✅ Teach the hips and torso to work together
✅ Challenge trunk stability while producing power
✅ Improve coordination and timing across the entire kinetic chain
✅ Prep the body for heavier lifts, faster movement, and safer sport and life activities
This is how we build bodies that don’t just lift weight — they move well, absorb force, and stay resilient.
At TrAk, movement has intention.
And when you train the connections, not just the muscles, everything gets stronger.

⭐ Five Star Friday: Kevin Edition ⭐
“TrAk has been an incredible gym/community to be a part of the last 2 years…
The coaches actually care, the environment is fantastic, and it never feels like a chore to get your workout in.” — Kevin
Kevin is the definition of show up, work hard, enjoy the process.
He’s consistent, he’s strong, and he somehow makes deadlifts look even better while rocking a Diapers & Deadlifts shirt. 💪👶
He embodies everything we believe in here:
✔️ Build strength
✔️ Resist chaos
✔️ Live big — especially as a dad
And yes… he also occasionally has to keep his buddy Chris in check when the jokes start getting out of hand mid-set 😂
Kevin, we’re lucky to have you as part of the TrAk fam. Thanks for bringing the effort, the laughs, and the dad-strength energy every week.
Drop a ⭐ in the comments to show Kevin some love!

WEDNESDAY WEEKLY WORK: Strength. Chaos. Life.
Another Wednesday in the books — and this past week at TrAk has been peak “this is why we do what we do.”
From last Wednesday to this one, we watched:
💥 Benching and heel-elevated squats that made legs + lungs burn (in the best way)
💥 KB work, rows, tricep kickbacks — all the little details that build big results
💥 Members grinding through conditioning and smiling after like, “Okay… I needed that.”
But the coolest part?
It wasn’t the reps.
It was the stories that showed up between the reps.
This week we heard members say things like:
✨ “I feel younger than I have in years.”
✨ “I went out and actually had the energy to enjoy it.”
✨ “I bounced back from that injury way faster than I expected.”
✨ “I finally started training after years of putting it off intimidated — and I’m already proud of myself.”
That’s our core values in real life.
Build strength. Resist chaos. Live fully.
Every heel-elevated squat, every bench press, every KB swing… this is you all choosing strength over stagnation, choosing resilience over excuses, choosing to live bigger instead of shrinking your life down.
And for the new folks — welcome.
You’re already showing up in ways that matter.
You’re stepping into your next chapter even when it’s uncomfortable.
And that’s the good stuff.
Here’s to another week of becoming stronger humans — inside and outside the gym.
Keep going, crew. You’re building something real. 💪🔥

⭐ 5 Star Friday: Shouting Out TASHEA! ⭐
New to TrAk… but already training like she’s been here for years.
Her review says it perfectly:
“Very professional, clean establishment. Coaches are engaging and motivating! Flexible class times. A great place to put in work with great people!”
And let us tell you — she puts in the work.
Even when she gives us that legendary side-eye as we slide a little extra weight on the bar… 👀😂
…she still goes for it.
Every. Single. Time.
Tashea shows up with kindness, effort, and a willingness to grow — and that’s exactly the kind of energy that makes this community special.
She’s stronger than she gives herself credit for, and watching her confidence build rep by rep has been a blast.
We’re so grateful she chose to start her journey with us — and this is only the beginning. 💪🔥
Drop a ⭐ for Tashea and help us celebrate her strength!

🔥 Movement Monday: Deficit Push-Ups (aka the Shoulder Insurance Policy You Didn’t Know You Needed) 🔥
One of our favorites in this block? Deficit push-ups — especially with neutral-grip handles and tempo work.
Here’s why we love them (and why your shoulders will too):
💪 1. Deeper Range = Stronger, Safer Shoulders
Most of adult life happens in tiny ranges of motion — typing, texting, steering wheels, Zoom calls.
But the few times life forces us into a deeper range?
Yeah… that’s when stuff goes pop.
You know the moment:
Your phone falls between the seats → you reach back like a Cirque du Soleil performer → rotator cuff says, “I’m out.” Leaving you aching for a week or more
All that… just to skip a song 😅
Deficit push-ups safely strengthen that deeper range so you’re not fragile when you accidentally move like a human.
🧠 2. Neutral Grip = Happier Wrists & Shoulders
Using handles puts your wrists in a more natural position and lines up the shoulder joint better.
Less cranky joints → better push → stronger chest, shoulders, and triceps without feeling “beat up.”
⏱️ 3. Tempo = Muscle, Stability, and Control
Slowing the rep down — especially the lowering phase — builds:
• Real muscle
• Joint control
• Core stability
• And confidence under tension
Tempo = gains you feel AND see.
🔥 Why We Program Them
Because strong adults need:
✔️ Resilient shoulders
✔️ Strength through full ranges
✔️ Smart progressions that actually translate to real life
This is how we keep you lifting, playing, carrying kids, doing yardwork, and living pain-free for decades.
