Powerlifting + Mental Health: Freedom Barbell Plus Launches Soon!
We're launching one of the world's first powerlifting programs that combines fitness + mental health
for people of all ages, genders and fitness levels.
It's called
Freedom Barbell Plus.
The First Group Starts August 16th, 2022
in Exton, PA.
Powerlifting is Healing We've teamed up with Dr. Kresge of Kinetic Physical Therapy to create Freedom Barbell Plus: one of the world' first programs that combines the benefits of powerlifting + mindfulness to help set people free from anxiety, depression, and the consequences of trauma and mental health conditions. It does that by empowering athletes to become phenomenally strong, centered and skilled through regular powerlifting, mindset and mindfulness training in a safe and supportive community of like-minded peers.
We chatted with Dr. Kresge about the physical benefits of powerlifting here in this video a few months ago.
