What is Maverick's Barbell

If I'm ever in a position to open a gym, Maverick's Barbell would surely be its name. Not only does the name belong to the coolest pup on the east coast, but it represents my approach to both fitness and sport. While nothing I do or preach is unheard of, it is a little more than just telling you to do more reps or lift heavier weights. My goal is to help you find what's interesting to you in fitness and to give you enough basic knowledge and understanding of it so that you can be confident in going forward with your goals on your own.

A little about the editor

Hi, my name's Hunter, and I'm a die-hard fan of all things gym. Though my professional career has lead me into software development, my schooling and extracurricular activities all revolve around the exercise sciences. In the past, I've held numerous positions in varying gyms from South Carolina to Pennsylvania, all from which I learned differnt training styles. I've held certifications such as the Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) from the NSCA and have worked with athletes in disciplines such as powerlifting, gymnastics, weightlifting, and plyometrics. To date I've ran one marathon, one 70.3 Ironman, countless 5-10ks, but my true passion lies within strength training.
