Resumes September 22 with expanded hours and services! You can expect:

Weightlifting Club

Group sessions with ongoing coaching in a supportive community. Helps form and keep a fun weekly lifting routine. Optionally train for quarterly meets — lifting parties at the gym! Follow club programmed workouts or your own training.

Weightlifting Club Onramp

90 minute personal sessions for newcomers. Includes snatch, clean & jerk, and other lifts used in training. Graduates are cleared to join club sessions. Beginners learning the lifts can expect 3 or more sessions, others maybe just 1 for intake.

Personal Coaching
Weekdays, 2:30-5:30 pm & 7:00-8:30 pm
45-90 minute personal sessions suited to you, your goals, and your training. Excellent for focused improvement in weightlifting technique, consistency, and confidence.

Individualized Programming
Accelerate your weightlifting progress with monthly training tailored to your needs and goals. Ongoing adjustments ensure the time you spend training is as effective, efficient, and satisfying as possible.

In the meantime, RCF Barbell SODO is still open for unsupervised training to gym members and guests with passes. Until coaching resumes, it's a great opportunity to explore weightlifting educational resources, pick something of interest, and practice applying it.
