    This month, we want to highlight two of our hardworking, early morning members, Erika Garcia and Gustavo Mendoza. Erika joined BFP at the end of August, 2020, Gustavo joined one week later, and between the two of them, they have attended more than 1,200 sessions. Some highlights from their past year at BFP: Erika ran her first Spartan Sprint in Charlotte last April.

  • Barbell Power Clean
    2 Mar 2023

    Barbell Power Clean

    Let’s break down the barbell power clean! If you have ever trained or are currently training with us at BFP, you know we love to program barbell power cleans. In fact, it is one of my favorite lifts to coach! In the beginning stages, it can feel awkward because it requires speed, coordination, mobility, and kinesthetic awareness. Once you get past the learning curve, this is where you can build on strength and power with the lift. Power cleans are not secluded only for athletes, weightlifters, or crossfitters. I firmly believe this lift can be performed by most gym-goers, even if it’s not with a barbell, you can still replicate the movement with other implements (kettlebells, ....

If you know, you know! “Ms. Ann” joined BFP a couple of years ago during a significant weight loss journey. From no barbell experience, to executing ALL major lifts with a barbell. From 12 sessions per month, to 20 sessions per month. From lacking endurance, to pushing the effort of anyone nearby. From lacking accountability with nutrition, to gaining knowledge and accountability from nutrition coaching. Ms. Ann wants results!

    This month I want to spotlight Courtney Winter as our member of the month at BFP. Courtney has been a part of the BFP family since late 2019. She came to us as a runner who wanted to get faster by complimenting her running with strength training. When she is training at BFP, her work ethic does not go unnoticed. I always hear her cheering on her fellow members and leading by example as she pushes herself as well as her peers. I can honestly say every time I coach her, she gives it 100% for that session. The reason I wanted to spotlight her this month is that she is having a comeback! I applaud her for how she has handled the last year. In a sense, life kicked her down, as she battled ....

    BFP Family Member of the Month: Laura Bussey Core values: Courage and Determination This month we would like to recognize Laura Bussey as Client of the Month. Laura had the courage to walk into BFP Sneads Ferry as a beginner. No formal use of barbells prior to her first session. The courage she used to walk in and start working out compiled with the determination to become a better version of herself is a recipe for success. Laura bought into the BFP way and became part of the 5pm family where she began to gain knowledge support and confidence. With the increase in confidence, Laura is now completing all barbell exercises. Not only is she completing the barbell exercises, but she has ....

    This month, I want to highlight one of our morning members, Sarah Brown. Sarah is what I call a “super mom” (just to be clear, all moms are super moms). I call her this because she has six kids and seems like she has everything under control. Personally, I don’t know how she does it, but Sarah is always cheerful to talk to at the gym and whether or not the workout is her stress reliever, she busts her butt! Sarah actually came up to me the other day and said she just celebrated her one year of training at BFP. Within that year, Sarah has had some great results. Her body fat percentage has dropped about 11%, while losing about 27 lbs of body fat and adding about 4-5 lbs ....

    This month at BFP, I want to give a shout out to Bryan Wilson! He has been a member at BFP for about two years and with that, has had his ups and downs. Currently, he is on the mend from an injury that would keep most people out, but seeing him show up, willing to let us modify for him and still get a good workout has been a testament to his hard work and dedication. Usually, Bryan trains in the evening session and if you’ve ever lifted with him or near him, you know he is as strong as an ox! Over the years, I’ve seen Bryan hit some PR’s on his lifts, improve his conditioning levels, and overall body composition. Needless to say, he is super consistent and has seen ....

Simply the best gym that I have ever joined.   The coaches made sure I knew how to do all the lifts correctly when I first started.  Since then, I've gotten consistently stronger by following their training program.  The atmosphere is encouraging, friendly, and fun.

Four years with our family here and I can't say enough good things. The coaches are kind, energetic and passionate about their jobs. Our teenagers have positive body images and are learning life long healthy habits. Silas, Joe, Blake, Iris, and Shawn have taken the time to know every member and truly care about each person that walks through the door.
