Steel Factory athletes after a training session

Coaching

Coaching that meets
you where you are.

Whether you're picking up a barbell for the first time or chasing a scholarship, coaching at Steel Factory starts with where you actually are — then builds relentlessly from there.

What we coach

Five things we train for.

Strength

Barbell foundation, progressive overload, real numbers.

Performance

Sprint mechanics, jumping, change of direction, power output.

Mobility

Range of motion that holds up under load and in competition.

Conditioning

Work capacity built for your sport, not for a leaderboard.

Athletic Development

Long-term progression for young athletes, season to season.
