Ever watched someone squat heavy or deadlift with effortless form and thought "how do they do that"?

This is how.

Strong Start is your low-pressure, high-fun intro to the barbell and kettlebell — coached in our 1,500 sq ft Calgary HQ. In 90 minutes, you'll learn the fundamentals of the back squat, deadlift, and key kettlebell movements (swings, deadlift, squat) — then put it all together in a short, beginner-friendly workout.

No experience required. Just bring a willingness to learn and move.

You'll be learning from Mo Youssef, head coach at Bells of Steel. Mo holds a National Certificate in Strength & Conditioning and trained under Olympic champion Mohamed Ehab. He specializes in coaching adults — especially newer lifters and the 40+ crowd — and has a knack for breaking complex movements into cues that actually click.

If you've ever felt intimidated by the barbell, Mo is the person you want in your corner.

• Proper setup and technique for the back squat
• How to deadlift safely with a barbell
• Kettlebell fundamentals: swing, deadlift, and squat
• Bracing, breathing, and movement cues you can take to any gym

This workshop is open to the public and designed for beginners. It's perfect if you're brand new to lifting, returning after time away, or training at home and want real, hands-on coaching from an expert.

• No lifting experience required
• Able to perform a comfortable air squat and hip hinge pattern
• Injury-free, or cleared to train by a medical professional

When you sign up, you'll be asked to confirm the following:

• I can perform at least 5 controlled bodyweight squats
• I can hinge to mid-shin, or am willing to be coached
• I am injury-free or cleared to train
• I agree to the waiver and photo release

• 90 minutes of small-group coaching with Mo (max 6 participants)
• A short, fun workout to put your new skills to the test
• A free Bells of Steel t-shirt for every attendee
• Exclusive discount codes for Bells of Steel gear

Spots are limited to 6 to keep Mo's coaching personal and hands-on — once they're gone, they're gone. Photos and short video clips may be captured during the session for Bells of Steel social media.
