the beginner barbell club
The beginner barbell club is a huge passion project of mine. I love introducing women to strength and powerlifting training. And I am hugely passionate about removing the barriers that exist for women who want to get involved in gym-based training and strength sports.
Next intake 3 February 2025!
Powerlifting and strength gyms are pretty daunting, I get it. I’ve been lifting for 15 years and I still feel anxious when I walk in to a new powerlifting gym for the first time.
I created the beginner barbell club because I was tired of fear and intimidation being the barrier between women and strength training. I was tired of women reverting to subpar training, training alone, or training in environments that don’t inspire them because the alternative was just so far out of their comfort zone.
That was five years ago now. I still love doing it.
So if you want to learn the ropes with a barbell, lift well, get strong as hell and do it with a group of people that you’ll actually love training with, I am dying to meet you.
In eight weeks we will,
Improve your strength, fitness and muscle mass,
Learn how to squat, bench press and deadlift with correct technique,
Learn how to perform an array of other barbell, dumbbell and and machine-based exercises,
Be confident to walk in to a gym alone and completely own it,
Understand how to write training programs,
Recruit new friends and training partners and
Of course get a whole lot stronger.

The team at TSF are incredibly supportive and invested in the success of every member and have cultivated a community and culture that I didn’t think was possible in a gym environment. I love that I can walk in and see all different bodies, genders and ages lifting heavy stuff and there is zero expectation that only a certain body type or aesthetic can be a powerlifter.

Billie has the most amazing balance of holding your hand just enough to make you feel supported, but not too much that you lose your autonomy. She is not afraid to call you out when you need to hear the hard truths, and you always listen because you know she’s only saying it because she wants the best for you. However I show up is enough for her, but I show up the best I can be, because of her.
