Yes. We offer early morning, lunch, and evening sessions and work to accommodate schedule changes based on gym capacity. If you miss a session during the week, you can make it up within the same week. Many of our busiest members maintain consistent progress despite demanding careers because the program is designed for flexibility.
Your coach will help you maintain consistency around travel. When you're in town, you train. When you travel, you rest and come back ready to pick up where you left off. The program is designed to accommodate real life, not require perfect attendance.
Just three sessions per week, typically 60-75 minutes each. That's around 3 hours per week total for a complete strength training program. Most busy professionals find this far more sustainable than trying to work out 5-6 days a week or spending hours in a gym without structure.
When you travel, you can train at any Starting Strength gym nationwide, follow a workout we program for you, or take a rest week. We work around your schedule to keep training consistent without the stress.
Absolutely. In fact, beginners often see the fastest results because they're starting from a lower baseline. Our efficient programming delivers maximum return on your time investment. You'll track measurable strength gains every week while spending far less time than traditional gym routines.
Strength training requires rest days between sessions for proper recovery and adaptation. Training more frequently doesn't lead to faster results and can actually hinder progress. Three sessions per week is the optimal frequency for consistent strength gains.
We work to accommodate schedule changes when possible, depending on gym capacity. Your coach can help you find alternative session times or make-up opportunities if your regular schedule shifts. Just communicate with us and we'll find a solution.
