🏋️‍♂️ About Us – The Art of Weightlifting

We didn’t start this to go viral. We started because we were pissed off.

Too many people in the gym getting hurt.
Too many lifters plateauing for years and no one noticing.
Too many “experts” who’ve never missed a lift or trained through a torn callus.

That’s what this is.
A pushback.
A guide.
A shoulder slap.
A journal.
A gym conversation in blog form.


đź§  What This Really Is

This site isn’t clean. Not really.
You’ll find technical breakdowns, yeah. Deadlift angles. Squat mechanics.
But also—mental breakdowns. Doubt. Overtraining. Not knowing if you’re doing enough—or doing it all wrong.

We write from inside that fog. From experience. From lifting platforms, from rehab benches, from the floor after a missed PR.

Some of us compete. Some coach. Some just lift.

But all of us know the feel of steel in our hands and the silence before a big set.


❌ What We’re Not

We don’t do:

  • Copy/paste workouts off Reddit
  • Sponsored gear labeled “our favorite” (it’s not)
  • Buzzwords like grind harder or beastmode

We do:

  • Hard-earned advice
  • Stories from under the bar
  • Education that doesn’t sound like a lecture

👣 Who This Is For

Not for clout-chasers.
Not for the guy lifting with mirror muscles and a messed-up back.
This is for you if:

  • You record your squats—not for likes—but to fix your hinge
  • You’ve questioned your program. your rest. your diet. yourself.
  • You’ve failed reps and still showed up the next day

🧩 What You’ll Actually Find

  • Training templates that explain the why, not just the what
  • Technique corrections without sugar
  • Recovery tips you might actually listen to
  • Raw stuff. The kind lifters don’t usually post

🎯 Why We Do It

Because we’ve been there

Injured and silent.
New and ignored.
Strong and still doubting everything.

And because weightlifting saved us, in ways we’re still figuring out…


🙋‍♂️ Wanna Talk?

Cool. We’d like that
If you’re a coach, lifter, gym owner—or someone just obsessed with barbell craft—reach out.
Even if it’s just to say:
“Hey, thanks. I needed that article.”

Thanks for reading
We’re not perfect. Neither are our squats.
But we’re showing up—one rep, one word, one honest post at a time.
