Small groups only work if the coach actually coaches. Ours still compete, write their own sessions, and show up when you're on the platform. No clipboard warriors.

CRITERIA / BEFORE YOU APPLY
ADMISSIONPROTOCOL.
Review our non-negotiable floor rules and roster terms before submitting your assessment form below.
ROSTER CAPACITY100 / 100STRICT HARD CAP
RULE 01INTENT & COACHABILITY
NO STRENGTH MINIMUM. 100% COACHABILITY.
We do not filter by squat total, we filter by intent. Whether you squat 135 or 650 lbs, you must accept technical instruction, adhere to programmed velocity protocols, and respect platform rotation.
RULE 02FIXED PLATFORM BLOCKS
RESERVED RACK. ZERO WAITING.
You train within your assigned window (Morning, Midday, or Evening) to guarantee a 1:4 athlete-to-coach ratio. Chronic unexcused absenteeism forfeits your rack block to the waitlist.
RULE 03CLOSED FACILITY PROTOCOL
ZERO DROP-INS. ZERO GUEST PASSES.
LOCKOUT operates as a closed private training hall. We do not offer day passes, open-gym access, or guest allowances. Every lifter on the floor is a vetted member.
RULE 04EQUIPMENT & SANCTUARY
RESPECT THE ELEIKO BARS.
Banging calibrated steel plates is encouraged; abusing competition bars, leaving unstripped platforms, or filming with intrusive tripods is strictly grounds for roster removal.
RULE 05TERMS OF ADMISSION
MONTH-TO-MONTH. 14-DAY NOTICE.
No 12-month lock-in contracts. To pause or cancel, provide written notice 14 days prior to your billing date. Relinquished slots immediately revert to the application pool.
