As such we ask that everyone complete one of the 2 training option below at home – 1 if you have a full home gym, one if you’re just body weight or you have a KB, DB, or band. On that note, we do still have a little equipment to lend to our active members, please reach out to me @ cincinnatistrength@gmail.com to schedule a pick-up or if you have any immediate questions. Finally, if you haven’t joined our now-highly-active FB members group, please do so, tons of great info, content, and communication there.
