About

I'm Jennifer Smith, Owner of Starting Strength Beaverton, a strength training gym for people of all ages and abilities.  After decades of running, I discovered the Starting Strength method of barbell training and soon found myself stronger and happier than I'd ever been!  I wanted to share the genius of barbell training with everyone I knew and Starting Strength Beaverton was born. In a world of gyms crowded with nautilus and cardio machines, we offer small-group, privately coached barbell training led by our Starting Strength Coaches - the most skilled and knowledgeable in the industry.  We receive referrals from doctors, physical therapists, chiropractors, and friends and family of our members.  Our motto is "Strength is for Everyone," and everyone in our gym gets stronger - guaranteed. I'm thrilled to be a part of changing people's lives!
