Power lifting

Get seriously strong

Powerlifting, the squat, bench press, and deadlift, is a regular part of training at Community Fitness Davis. You'll build real, measurable strength under a coach's eye, whether you're chasing your first bodyweight deadlift or a new PR.

Getting Started

Strength is a skill

Every week of our programming includes dedicated strength work built around the big lifts. Your coach teaches the setup, watches your form, and helps you pick the right weights, so you get stronger without getting hurt.

Beginners start with the movement patterns and build up. Experienced lifters follow structured progressions aimed at new PRs. The barbell doesn't care where you start, only that you show up.

Why we prioritize strength

  • It changes everything. Stronger muscles, denser bones, better posture, easier daily life.
  • It's measurable. Add weight to the bar over time and watch your progress in black and white.
  • It compounds. Strength makes every other kind of training, conditioning, sports, life, better.

Start with the basics

If you're new to this style of training, our 3-session on-ramp teaches you the foundational movements one-on-one with a coach before you join group classes. Learn more abouthow we train, or get extra barbell time in open gym every day.
