The Strength Co Gyms

The Strength Co. is a barbell gym focused on coached strength training for beginners and experienced lifters alike. It operates as a Starting Strength affiliate, and its sessions follow the Starting Strength programming for squat, deadlift, bench and other basic barbell lifts. Coaches supervise training, correct technique and offer small-group sessions, an Intro to Barbells course and open gym time.

The gym is built around power racks, platforms and barbells rather than cardio machines or group classes, and it has no locker rooms or showers. New members can book an intro session to learn the lifts before choosing how they train. The Strength Co. is in Costa Mesa, on Newport Boulevard, and the owner, Grant Broggi, works directly with members.
