Metabolic has changed my life. When I step through their doors, it is my time – My time to leave everything behind, my time to feel my heartbeat, my time to get better.
The Metabolic Community fulfills me in so many ways. It took me from an isolated stay at home mom back to the confident, social and independent woman that I used to be
Going somewhere where that is not only recognized but celebrated daily is a whole different feeling. I’ve never felt stronger physically or mentally than I have in the past year.

Metabolic Training is a form of strength training that prioritizes low rest periods between sets and full body workouts in order to simultaneously build muscle, develop strength, enhance mobility, and improve cardiovascular conditioning. Because it is so efficient & effective, it is an extremely popular training program that has a high degree of flexibility to cater to a wide variety of age groups, experience levels, and fitness goals.
Due to the union of “Time Under Tension” with targeted rep counts, Metabolic Training delivers incredible results when it comes to developing strength and building muscle. When combined with doing all of this in less time than most people are used to, it is no surprise that once most people start implementing Metabolic Training as their primary fitness program, it becomes a transcendent moment in their fitness journey that truly changes the way they view fitness.
Our founder, Matt Phelps, is one the forefathers of Metabolic Training, and developed the philosophy through years of trying to master the challenging task of implementing effective strength training in a group setting. The structure, organization, and programming are second to none, and help form the foundation of an even stronger community of like minded individuals.
Building lean muscle tissue is predominantly a process determined by genetic predisposition; Metabolic Training will develop as much lean muscle as you are genetically predisposed to building through the strategic emphasis of both “higher rep” and “lower rep” programming.
If you are a woman that is concerned that you will get “too big” doing Metabolic Training, you simply do not possess the testosterone levels to develop massive amounts of lean muscle tissue, so this should not be a concern. Instead, you will develop a healthy amount of lean muscle to support a strong metabolism, and an active lifestyle!
Provided that loading and training are accounted for, you will not lose any size doing Metabolic Training; in fact, you will likely notice new hypertrophy in your delts, glutes, and upper back! If you are lacking in cardiovascular conditioning at the start of your Metabolic journey, we recommend you prioritize the “indicator lift” of each day, and back off the intensity of the other movements. As your fitness level “catches up” with your strength, you will get into the best shape of your life, and optimize lean muscle mass development.
While this is highly dependent on age, ability level, and outside activity, we have found that, generally, the “sweet spot” is 3-5 times per week.
If you are pregnant, postpartum, or have past injuries you should always receive medical clearance from your physician before partaking in any new training program. With that said, we have had countless clients in all of these categories safely participate in our program with modifications provided by our coaching staff.
