  • I am a 71 year old senior who worked with Adam over a period of 5 months. He took time assessing my physical limitations and developed a training plan that was flexible, interesting and kept me motivated. My strength , endurance and stamina improved. Adam was always encouraging. Can’t recommend him enough.

  • Great workouts! Adam really does a good job catering to each person's needs and his focus on form/injury prevention has helped me immensely in my journey getting back in shape! Would highly recommend to anyone.

  • I've been working with Adam of Strength Affirmations for a few months and have been very happy with his service. He is knowledgeable, professional and well-prepared. Adam is great at knowing the right challenge level for me. I enjoy our sessions and am pleased with the progress I've made. I highly recommend him!

    Cara Quinn

  • I've worked with Adam for about 6 months now. I've reached personal bests on lifts that I would never have attempted on my own. Not once have I felt pressured or uncomfortable - I leave every session feeling great. Adam is professional and supportive but not over the top. I appreciate the flexibility, thoughtfulness around progression and realistic expectations that he brings to our sessions.

Why Strength Training is Important:

Increases Muscle Mass and Metabolism

Building lean muscle boosts your resting metabolic rate, enhancing calorie burning and supporting healthy weight management. The American College of Sports Medicine highlights the metabolic benefits of regular resistance training. Learn more.

Enhances Bone Density

Weight-bearing exercises stimulate bone growth and improve bone mineral density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis. The National Institutes of Health provides detailed information on how exercise supports bone health. Read more.

Improves Insulin Sensitivity

Regular strength training improves the body’s response to insulin, helping to regulate blood sugar levels and lower the risk of type 2 diabetes. Research available on PubMed Central explains these metabolic benefits. Explore the study.

Boosts Mental Health and Confidence

Beyond the physical benefits, strength training releases endorphins that enhance mood and reduce stress. Harvard Health Publishing discusses how exercise can naturally alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety. Read the article.

Reduces the Risk of Chronic Diseases

By lowering blood pressure, improving cholesterol levels, and reducing body fat, strength training plays a key role in preventing cardiovascular disease and other chronic conditions. Harvard Health also provides insights into how building muscle contributes to overall health. Learn more.
