FRIDAY POWER CIRCUITS JUST GOT A MAJOR UPGRADE.
You already know Power Circuit Fridays hit different. But now?
They’re about to level all the way up.
Starting this week, every Friday Power Circuit class at LIFTED is officially sponsored by lululemon. That means more power, more perks, and a weekly chance to win a major lululemon prize—just for showing up and putting in the work.

Sophie Lis Comes to LIFTED – July 19
We’re thrilled to announce that Sophie Lis, the visionary jewellery designer from London’s Notting Hill, is joining us at LIFTED on Friday, July 19 for an exclusive, in-studio experience that fuses strength, style, and cosmic symbolism.
If you’re not yet familiar, Sophie Lis is more than just a designer—she’s a force. Her jewellery is rooted in symbolism, the cosmos, and a commitment to empowering women. Each piece is handcrafted to be timeless and bold, a reflection of the women who wear them—independent, powerful, and unapologetically themselves.

Why the Strict Press Humbles Everyone—And Why You Need It
Let’s be honest: the strict press hurts your feelings. It’s one of the most frustrating lifts in the LIFTED Strength Lab—and that’s exactly why it stays in the rotation. No bounce, no momentum, no leg drive to save you. Just you, the barbell, and gravity doing its job.
The strict press (aka overhead press) is a raw test of upper body strength—and for most people, it’s the lift that exposes the gaps. Want to build real strength? Start here.

WHY POWER CIRCUIT WITH HOLLY RILINGER HITS DIFFERENT
This isn’t random movement.
This is Power Circuit—and every second of it is designed to challenge your system, push your thresholds, and build strength that translates beyond the gym.
At LIFTED, we build programming with purpose.
Power Circuit is a high-intensity blend of strength, power, and conditioning, grounded in the science of adaptation and performance. You’ll rotate through focused stations—each one engineered to train different energy systems, build muscular endurance, and sharpen total-body coordination.

THE BIG 5: WHY THESE MOVEMENTS WILL CHANGE YOUR TRAINING (AND YOUR LIFE)
At LIFTED, we don’t play random workout roulette.
There’s no throwing exercises at a whiteboard like spaghetti and hoping they stick.
We train with purpose—and it all starts with The Big 5.
These five movement patterns are the foundation of strength. Master them, and suddenly life feels lighter, training gets sharper, and your body works like the powerhouse it was built to be.

LIFTED x The lululemon Summer Club: SOLD OUT SWEAT, SUNSHINE, & STRAIGHT HEAT

DUE TO DEMAND: NEW LAB CLASSES JUST ADDED
You’ve been showing up, filling the floor, and asking for more. So here it is:
More Lab. More chances to lift. More sweat. More fire.

TRAINER TIP: Why EMOMs Hit Different at LIFTED
Let’s talk EMOMs. That’s Every Minute On the Minute—and no, it’s not just some fitness buzzword. It’s one of the most effective, no-BS training tools we use in the Strength Lab.
Here’s how it works: you’re assigned a task—say, 10 squats or burpees—and you start at the top of every minute. Finish early? You earn rest. Drag your feet? The clock eats you alive. It’s simple. Brutal. Beautiful.
At LIFTED, we don’t use EMOMs because they’re trendy. We use them because they deliver. Every. Damn. Time.

“Grip Strength = Real-Life Power”
This one’s not just about hands — it’s about connection. The way you grab that bar, the way you own the weight, the way you hold on when it gets heavy. Grip is the gateway. And when it fails? The rest follows.

Progress Isn’t Always a Heavier Bar
Let’s get one thing straight: chasing your 1-rep max every week is not the flex you think it is.
We tested your max at the start of summer for a reason—so we can train smart beneath it. Not because we’re afraid to go heavy, but because we know the real gains come from putting in the work under the ceiling, not constantly trying to punch through it.

Hormones & Heavy Lifts: Holly Rilinger Featured on Hit Play Not Pause Podcast With Host Selene Yeager.

Train Your Core — Without Endless Sit-Ups
When most people think of "core training," they picture high-rep sit-ups, crunches, and bicycle kicks. While those exercises can have their place, they only scratch the surface when it comes to truly developing a strong, stable, and functional core.

AND THE WINNERS ARE...
Our Grand Opening Weekend was one for the books—sold out classes, serious energy, new faces, new formats, and a whole lot of sweat. But beyond the workouts, we went BIG with our giveaways… and now it’s time to announce the lucky winners.
