    Boston does seem to be an untapped market! I saw that the SSC there moved to Charlotte, NC, another untapped market.
    I'm a ONLINE client of Dan Flanick, but luckily I live close enough to get over there for an occasional in person session. The combination keeps me moving on up.

    Ya, we don't do this at SSOC. Our goal is specifically to work with people who want to make that commitment. Certainly you could reach out to an individual coach and ask if they'd do that. We obviously do that here for free without (sans the personalized programming assistance), though the level of detail in our response, speed of reply, attention we're giving while doing it, and patience with you in general is going to be a lot higher when you've shown commitment by paying for the service.

    Home gym. Newton. You? I have a YMCA family membership, but was sick of dealing with sharing and hogging the power rack.

    Adding to the fire here. Heck, I'd take a SS coach almost anywhere in New England. I'll probably buckle eventually and make the trip to NYC, but I can't do that once or twice a month -- which would be ideal (and obviously I'm willing to pay for!)

    Just listened to Wolf on today’s Barbell Logic podcast. He stated that he has a goal of eventually opening up a gym, but probably wouldn’t be in Manhattan. Too costly.

    Wolf amove to Boston and tap into this market!! Most gyms here suck! Great opportunity....

    I can't imagine Boston is a hub of affordability. But honestly, I don't like the northeast much. If I leave NYC and have to rebuild my business from scratch, I'm going to do it somewhere I like better.

    Alas, you will have to find another person to throw your money at.

    Andy Baker's Barbell Club is $27/month and you can cancel anytime. There's a Facebook group for form checks.
