At the gym, at home, anywhere
The safest and smartest way to getting stronger, leaner, and more athletic
No more
feeling broken post workout,
thinking you just have to eat less and move more,
worrying if your coach truly understands your goals,
garbage high intensity programs,
gimmicky diet books,
useless supplements,
wondering if you’re hitting the right rep/set scheme for your goals,
or wasting time trying to figure it out on your own.
We’ve been there too.
We know that you want to feel good, look good, and perform pain free. So do we.
That’s why in 2009 our founder created and built Ambitious Athletics. His personal goal to look and feel young forever sent him down a path of a variety of training methods and certifications to open our training facility in downtown Washington DC.
What you really need is scientifically based, time-tested programming from an experienced expert.
Ambitious Athletics methodology combines the best methods used by professional athletes, bodybuilders, and powerlifters. This sustainable hybrid system will keep you pain-free and change how you look and feel, fast.

Here’s what you get
Training structure
Upper, lower, total. Upper, lower, upper. Max effort, dynamic effort. Reverse pyramid. Max effort, hypertrophy. We use the best methods.
Our training program is mapped out well in advance with two goals in mind,
1) make you feel strong as f*#k, and
2) make you look good as f*#k.
We look at the year the same way professional athletes do: we view these as “training seasons”; preseason, in season (summer), and off season. Throughout our training phases, we wave and periodize volume, loads, intensities and training focus, so you don’t burn out; you just keep getting better.
Our training program is often written for a Monday - Saturday training schedule.

Ambitious athlete FAQs
+ WHO IS THIS PROGRAM BEST SUITED FOR?
This training program is ideal for people that have some training experience under their belt and can read a training plan. You might be an ex-athlete or someone who loves training just as much as we do, are looking for structure in your training, a change of pace, are tired of being burnt out and beaten up, want to stay strong and competitive but are not looking to compete in competitions, or you just love training and learning and want something new.
+ HOW LONG IS THE PROGRAM?
The Ambitious Athlete program is ongoing and constantly evolving. The compliments we receive from our members are about the sustainability of the programming and the feeling like they could do this forever.
+ WHAT EQUIPMENT WILL I NEED?
The equipment that we use can be found in most gyms. Barbells, kettlebells, dumbbells, TRX, and resistance bands generally make up the bulk of our training programs with the exception of some conditioning equipment like battling ropes, stationary bikes, sleds, and sandbags. While these additional items are not necessary and won't limit your progress and results, they are helpful and do assist in low impact exercise and variety in a training program.
If you’re looking to build out a home gym or purchase some of your own equipment, we suggest using Sorinex, Rogue, Resistance Band Training, and TRX. You can also find great non-biased product reviews and tips on how to build out at home gym, here at http://www.garagegymreviews.com.
+ CAN I SCALE OR MODIFY EXERCISES?
100% - we give you options right in the app if you need to opt out of a particular exercise. We assume that you have enough experience and the intuition to modify as you see fitting. You can also post to our private group and ask questions or gather feedback from other members and your coaches.
+ Is this CrossFit?
No. More like cross training. We use a variety of tools, methods, and applicaitons that do not involve Olympic weightlifting
+ WHAT KIND AND HOW MUCH PERSONAL COACHING CAN I EXPECT?
As much as we can give without this becoming a personal training/individualized program. We trust that you have a fair amount of knowledge in regards to weightlifting and signed up with us for more structure in your life and training program. We’re 100% available to you through our private Facebook group to provide help and feedback.
