Live a Longer, Stronger and Healthier Life
Barbell training for adults
We use barbells to build real strength. Think better balance, stronger bones, and fewer injuries due to falls or weakness. Every lift is taught with low-risk, high-reward techniques, tailored to your age and level of training experience. We’re here to help you lift confidently and safely
We offer functional training classes to improve stability, functional movement patterns, and cardiovascular health. These classes are designed to keep you moving safely in your everyday life to keep doing everything you love.
Every 3Score Gym member receives individualized programming and coaching. Whether you’re brand new to lifting or a seasoned athlete, we meet you where you are and help you get where you want to go (with encouragement, not ego).

Our Scientific Approach
We use research-backed methods, not trendy workout fads – collaborating with experts in aging and movement science. 6 and 12 month memberships include a biannual InBody scan to track your lean muscle mass and overall progress. Contact us to learn more about InBody.
You are front of mind
You will start with an in-person assessment to ensure our programming meets you where you are and teaches you safe movement patterns. Our goal is to get everyone lifting with barbells. But if you have limited range of motion or impingements we have various techniques to adapt lifts and training to ensure you still can get to those compound lifts at your own pace.
Barbells & Weights
By focusing on compound lifts that engage multiple joints and muscle groups, barbell training builds strength in natural movement patterns, engaging all the small balance and support muscles as well as the large muscle groups.
Functional Training
Functional movement training enhances your stabilization and overall fitness, empowering you to move with confidence and ease. Our classes focus on helping you build a body that’s strong, balanced, and ready for whatever life brings—to keep you doing the things you love.
Personalized Coaching
You will start exactly where you are, with a program tailored to your current abilities and goals to ensure steady, safe progress.You’ll get personalized guidance that helps you stay motivated and achieve your best results efficiently.
Scientific Approach
All training programs rely on the most recent information coupled with our tried and true methodology to meet your needs and help you hit your goals. We measure progress by not only weight increments on the barbell but also collaborating with health professionals and lean muscle mass measurements via biannual InBody Scans.
Who are our classes for?
We have designed our gym and our program specifically for adults. We have specific training and programming to address a number of issues faced by adults, due to injuries and everyday aging. We specialize in training to optimize life after forty.
Injury Prevention & Optimized Performance
Weight training along with supplemental functional movement training will help correct imbalances that have been created from repetitive movements and optimize performance to help you reduce your chances of nagging injuries and have you move better and stronger in your everyday life.
Sarcopenia
Sarcopenia is the loss of muscle mass and subsequent strength as we age. By focused weight training not only can you maintain muscle mass but increase it as you age and become a stronger version of yourself.
Endurance & Aerobic Fitness
We offer HIIT training focused on VO2 max efforts to maintain and even increase your endurance and aerobic fitness. Let us help you decrease your overall risk of all cause mortality and keep you participating in all the activities you love.
Osteopenia & Osteoporosis
As we age many of us face Osteopenia and Osteoporosis diagnoses. Incorporating strength and resistance training into your life can maintain and at times increase bone density to allow you to become that active participant in your life with confidence.

We will provide a positive and supportive environment to encourage you to become the stronger and healthier version of yourself.
