Discover How to Build Lean Muscle, Drop Body Fat, and Get Confident in the Gym—All in this 2 minute video

"At 44, I'm in the best shape of my life and indebted to the Capital Strength Team... I can out-lift my 16 year old son and outlast both my 10 year old and 7 year old.

Perhaps most surprising (considering my age) I get compliments on my derrière quite often. The best result? My doctor is very pleased with my low heart rate, low blood sugar, low blood pressure, bone density, and muscular frame"

"Capital Strength taught me what I was missing. I learned proper technique, correct form specific to weight lifting, and how to progress and improve on a program—getting stronger each workout.

That’s why Capital Strength is unique: they keep the classes small so that trainers have time to help each client... So if you’re looking to invest in real training that'll teach you life-long skills to stay fit and healthy... progressing past your plateaus... Capital Strength is your gym!"

"I recently moved to Raleigh and looking for a gym was a top priority. Capital Strength has great trainers, programs and equipment. Convenient and easy to get to, and easy to schedule workouts with the app. And CLEAN and ORGANIZED.

Compound lifts were new to me, so good trainers were essential. Ben's coaching has helped me gain confidence and trust myself. His cues and coaching help keep me from overthinking and slow down. Ben, Eli, Peter and Carey make me want to show up and try my best. I'm really happy with my progress."

"I sincerely doubt there's a more qualified trainers in the area. Whether your goals are weight loss, to look better/build muscle, improved performance on the playing field, or general health, Capital Strength will help you achieve those goals.

Fair warning: the training you'll receive at Capital Strength is not what you'd get from your standard commercial gym. They aren't going to stick you on a treadmill for an hour and call it "training". Be prepared to work hard, but also be ready to see serious results in the coming weeks and months."

"I've been consistently training at Capital Strength & Conditioning for about 6 months now and can say without doubt it is one of the best decisions I've made for myself and my health in a long time. I'm an active person and have wanted to try personal training for years, but always talked myself out of it. I am so glad I took the leap of faith to try it!

The staff at Capital Strength & Conditioning are incredibly welcoming and informative and the facility is well equipped, clean, and easily accessible.

If you are looking for a great environment, supportive staff and fun/tough workouts you should definitely check them out!"

"Phenomenal group of folks who really care. It has the feel of having a 1 on 1 personal trainer without the insane cost. They hold you accountable and will push you to stay on track."

"Fantastic space and team. I appreciate how the trainers tailor workouts to clients' unique needs, are patient and steady, and encourage steady progress without risking injury. My goal has been to simply more easily and confidently move around, and I've already learned so much about movement and my body through my training.

I feel much more energized and confident with all my physical activity thanks to my sessions, from my regular runs, to chores around the house, to just playing with my dog. Starting these sessions was one of the best decisions I've made in a long time."

"...I look forward to my sessions every week, and even feel a little sad when I go too many days in between them...

Matt trains me in a way that is effective, safe, and fun. He pushes me to try things I'm afraid to, but is super respectful of my boundaries when I don't think something is working for me, or if it's causing pain.

I've never done such challenging workouts without a single injury, and my fitness is better than it's ever been."

"My wife and I love this place! The folks are very friendly and knowledgeable about training.

I would recommend Capital Strength & Conditioning to anyone looking to get in shape."

"I love this gym! As a woman over 60 I never thought I could feel as strong & fit as I do now. I even skied down a couple of black diamonds last week. So happy I started strength training at Capital Strength!!"

"Training with Capital Strength & Conditioning has been a game changer for me! I was looking to take my fitness and strength training to the next level and the trainers at Capital have helped me do just that.

I love how professional and personable the trainers are and the flexibility to schedule sessions within the app. If you want to challenge yourself, recomp your body and take your fitness to the next level…look no further! This is the place.

"I have been working out at Capital Strength & Conditioning since its opening and I absolutely love it. My workouts there have been challenging and fun! Personal training has helped me improve my form and discover fun new exercises.

After both my children, I used their training to bounce right back in to even better shape!"

"With smart training I got better results without overstressing my body...

The Capital Strength Team is professional and engaged. They give helpful guidance and tailor my workouts to safely push me to get stronger."

"I was hesitant to get started strength training again after being out of sports for almost 10 years, but everyone at Capital Strength was so inviting and welcoming it made my transition so much easier. Everyone is so friendly, knowledgeable and always pushing you to do your best. I broke my ankle some time ago which holds me back from some movements but because they are so experienced in this sport, they are able to help me modify my movements to get me to where I need to be."

"I can’t say enough good things about Capital Strength and Conditioning. I’ve been training here for several years now and consistently found the team to be excellent. Many people my age (69) have retired from training and without the consistent encouragement I get at Capital, I might have gone down that same path.

Even when I come in for a session with various aches and pains, they are able to work with those limitations and actually help me with rehab."

"All the coaches at Capital Strength are exceptional. I’ve been at Capital for over a year and a half now and I can't believe the physical (and mental) gains I've received. I look forward to going to the gym now! They are great at creating engaging workouts, explaining exactly what muscles are being worked, and checking in on progress outside of the gym. They are quick on their feet when it comes to altering workouts due to injury or fatigue.

Capital Strength recently expanded their location. The facility is clean and everyone there is extremely friendly. They have every piece of equipment you could ever need. I would recommend it to anyone looking to grow - muscle, endurance, AND confidence."

“Capital Strength is the best gym I've ever worked out at. There is tremendous space and equipment options available for anyone at any point in their fitness journey. . . In just a little over 2 months, I've lost 5 inches on my waist, and gained significant muscle in my chest, arms, and back.”

"I started coming to Capital Strength two years ago when I was new to the Raleigh area. My main goal was to gain weight. I’ve always been the skinny guy in my friend group and I tried CrossFit as well as other gyms and nothing seemed to help put on weight. I found Capital Strength, and told the coaches what my goals were, and they put a program together for me that has completely changed my life.

Two years later and I’ve gained 40 pounds in muscle. Each coach pushes you day in and day out, not to mention the culture and community of this gym is top notch. All walks of life work out here. If you’re serious about making a change, this is a great place to invest your time and money to do so."

"This place is great!

Everyone who works here goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable, educated, and pumped to get through a hard workout.

Cannot say enough great things about this place and the people."

“I’ve been training at Capital Strength for the past 6 months or so. The staff is exceptional and the facility is very clean and offers pretty much anything you could ever need to meet your fitness goals.

There is such a sense of community at Capital Strength and I just can not say enough about my experience here. I highly, highly recommend giving them a try. You will not be disappointed!”

“I came in with no experience and I felt like they gave me a great foundation.

I am always looking forward to the next session.”

“I've been lifting weights for 25 years and have learned more from Coach Matt and his trainers than anywhere else I've trained.

They are all experts and understand the small refinements that can take you to the next level. Whether you are just starting out or have years of experience, the trainers are always eager to help.”

“I've been working out at Capital Strength now for right around 4 months, and it's hands down been an awesome experience.

The coaches have always been fantastic to work with. I'm always looking forward to my next session as soon as I walk out the door!”

“I started training at Capital well over 12 months ago. I cannot speak highly enough of them. They are professional, knowledgeable and their understanding of the human body is exceptional.

Outside of developing strength, they have helped me address compensations in my movement patterns and has aided in the prevention of overuse and injury in my daily work.

They have readily amended and adapted sessions based on how l was feeling on the day. This has been invaluable. They have gone over and above and is the best trainer l have had.”

“Hands down best personal training gym in the triangle!!!! If you’re looking for a fitness transformation, improve your health or any kind personal health journey, you can’t get a better experience than here.

What sets this place apart from any other gym in the area is the staff. They work with you to build customized plans based on your specific goals, body type, life-style.

They’re respectful and patient, they push you when they need to, take a step back and show genuine care for your imitations. Their willingness to communicate is outstanding.”
