Announcement: Since we are hosting the Cupid Classic this weekend, we will be bringing a lot of bumper plates up to Concordia High School on Friday evening. As a result, bumper plates will be in very short supply on Saturday morning (i.e., the day of the meet, 02/11/17). We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and we thank you for understanding. As a side note, the shortage of bumpers is a great reason to come on up to the school and support your fellow lifters! And of course, afterward, join us at the Mueller house for feasting and fun (a sign-up sheet is up at the gym for bringing sides or desserts)!Upcoming events:

The Jordan family is looking strong this morning! A little while after husband Matt finished lifting, wife Marcie shows up and finishes off her lifting day with a solid set of fahve at 147.5 lbs while son Wesley stares down the photographer. #strongfamily #deadlift #linearprogression #startingstrength #startingstrengthgym
