Recent scorecards

+42.5 kgdeadlift · 16 weeks

“I bake from 3am, so a gym that takes 11pm seriously changed everything. The coaches log every bar I touch — I've never trained with this much attention.”
Priya · pastry chef, on The Protocol

2× bodyweightback squat · 9 months

“Came in unable to squat to depth without pain. Movement screen found it in week one; nine months later I squatted double bodyweight on Test Night.”
Marcus · paramedic, Foundation → Protocol

Elena · touring musician, One-to-One
