We always start with a conversation for a handful of reasons and the first is to get you started in the best manner from day one. We aren’t trying to upsell or bundle things, literally the opposite. Our goal is to build a plan that is sustainable and effective for YOU so that you can train for the long term, for resilience, for life. From the platform —> Your life. This also ensures that you know at least one person at the gym right away and helps keep this community safe as we know everybody that walks through these doors.
And we know your needs change over time so we won’t lock you into any commitments or contracts so you can add, or remove, memberships monthly. We also do remote and hybrid coaching so if getting to the gym is a challenge, just text us “Remote” at either link above and we’ll get you started wherever you train!
In the words of our athletes
You’ll notice we don’t have before and after pictures or any of that nonsense. Your results are yours and we believe that you own the earned strength, confidence, and grit that you build in this space.

"The Resilient Strength is purposeful, inclusive, and responsive..."

“Hands down the best experience I’ve had in a fitness space...

How does a 24/7 gym work?
I've never lifted before, can I train here?
I don't want to compete, can I still train?
How do I start?
Do y'all require a contract to start?
Do y'all offer mobility and stretching?
Follow our journey.
You'll notice we use “athlete” often. That's you! We are using our bodies to achieve our goals here, which makes us all, who train, athletes.
We are a community of gritty, capable, and caring athletes. We get to work hard, with a consistent base of support, so that we can do more: live more, lift more, adventure more, and do more of the things we love. We are diverse in our pursuits and unified in a Resilient Strength.

"I love this gym and community...If you have fitness goals, this is the place to be." “I love this gym and community . Brian and Holly have worked hard to create a safe and fun community. If you have fitness goals, this is the place to be. I just competed in my first weightlifting comp and Holly and Brian made it the most fun and smooth experience for me. I constantly feel supported and cared for , and couldn’t ask for better coaches to help me become a stronger athlete. Not to mention other coaches like Paola, who’s always ready to help. And the special mascot, Kilo . I couldn’t ask for a more supportive community! "A wonderful, welcoming, and strong community." “Brian and Holly have created a wonderful, welcoming , and strong community at The Resilient Strength that only amplifies the quality coaching. They meet you exactly where you’re at and help you meet any goal. I came in with only some powerlifting knowledge, and in a year competed in three powerlifting and weightlifting competitions. Can’t recommend them highly enough!” -Jules "The Resilient Strength is purposeful, inclusive, and responsive..." I have such a great amount of respect for the place and community that Coaches Holly and Brian have built. Coach Paola also helps create an incredible space where people want to keep showing up for themselves and for their goals. The Resilient Strength is purposeful , inclusive , and responsive to the needs of the athletes that enter through the front door, whether they are trying to introduce themselves to the world of strength training, or if they are trying to take their game to the next level. I have trained here for a little less than a year, and my only regret is that I took so long to find this space. I consider myself an aspiring powerlifting competitor. It is deeply reassuring to have personal coaching that will align with my interests, and is actively helping me achieve the dreams and PRs that I want to reach. The amount of growth I have experienced as an athlete in such a short amount of time is beyond my expectations, and I am exceptionally grateful for the ride. Highly recommended. "They’re the real deal." “Resilient Strength is easily the best all around gym I’ve been to, and not just by what it has to offer equipment wise, but because of the people and level of coaching available . Coach Brian Wilbur is an AMAZING coach to say the least. Between him and coach Holly they are masters of anything weights. I came in wanting to compete in Olympic lifting and ended up doing my first competition and have nationals ahead. And the other athletes are the most welcoming group I’ve ever met. As a former 3 year varsity football starter and all-league player, I highly recommend the Resilient Strength and their coaches to get you ready for your next competition, season, and or level. They’re the real deal.” -Ethan "My body feels great and my progress rate is astronomical...: I really love Weightlifting (snatch and clean and jerk). I consume all the content, but thought I was just weak and bad. After hearing a few breadcrumbs from videos, I found out that I was pretty good for an old guy! I wanted to start competing as a Masters athlete and discovered that I needed to get hooked up with a USAW gym. This was one of the closest and I was so sold by my intake call with Brian. Brian has been a exceptional coach - everything you want. I'm mostly a remote athlete, but cherish my chances to join my teammates at this gym - the energy is so supportive for everyone no matter their stage. Everyone is just competing with their past selves and we're all there to support each others' journey.

"I love this gym and community...If you have fitness goals, this is the place to be." “I love this gym and community . Brian and Holly have worked hard to create a safe and fun community. If you have fitness goals, this is the place to be. I just competed in my first weightlifting comp and Holly and Brian made it the most fun and smooth experience for me. I constantly feel supported and cared for , and couldn’t ask for better coaches to help me become a stronger athlete. Not to mention other coaches like Paola, who’s always ready to help. And the special mascot, Kilo . I couldn’t ask for a more supportive community! "A wonderful, welcoming, and strong community." “Brian and Holly have created a wonderful, welcoming , and strong community at The Resilient Strength that only amplifies the quality coaching. They meet you exactly where you’re at and help you meet any goal. I came in with only some powerlifting knowledge, and in a year competed in three powerlifting and weightlifting competitions. Can’t recommend them highly enough!” -Jules "The Resilient Strength is purposeful, inclusive, and responsive..." I have such a great amount of respect for the place and community that Coaches Holly and Brian have built. Coach Paola also helps create an incredible space where people want to keep showing up for themselves and for their goals. The Resilient Strength is purposeful , inclusive , and responsive to the needs of the athletes that enter through the front door, whether they are trying to introduce themselves to the world of strength training, or if they are trying to take their game to the next level. I have trained here for a little less than a year, and my only regret is that I took so long to find this space. I consider myself an aspiring powerlifting competitor. It is deeply reassuring to have personal coaching that will align with my interests, and is actively helping me achieve the dreams and PRs that I want to reach. The amount of growth I have experienced as an athlete in such a short amount of time is beyond my expectations, and I am exceptionally grateful for the ride. Highly recommended. "They’re the real deal." “Resilient Strength is easily the best all around gym I’ve been to, and not just by what it has to offer equipment wise, but because of the people and level of coaching available . Coach Brian Wilbur is an AMAZING coach to say the least. Between him and coach Holly they are masters of anything weights. I came in wanting to compete in Olympic lifting and ended up doing my first competition and have nationals ahead. And the other athletes are the most welcoming group I’ve ever met. As a former 3 year varsity football starter and all-league player, I highly recommend the Resilient Strength and their coaches to get you ready for your next competition, season, and or level. They’re the real deal.” -Ethan "My body feels great and my progress rate is astronomical...: I really love Weightlifting (snatch and clean and jerk). I consume all the content, but thought I was just weak and bad. After hearing a few breadcrumbs from videos, I found out that I was pretty good for an old guy! I wanted to start competing as a Masters athlete and discovered that I needed to get hooked up with a USAW gym. This was one of the closest and I was so sold by my intake call with Brian. Brian has been a exceptional coach - everything you want. I'm mostly a remote athlete, but cherish my chances to join my teammates at this gym - the energy is so supportive for everyone no matter their stage.

Book Intro We are a gym community of gritty athletes with big hearts, we pour into our training. We train hard so that we can do more. More weight on the bar. More everything in life. Our community and our culture are our greatest assets. Promoting positive change through consistent and caring hard work, we cheer on wins, we help stand each other up after failure, and we attack hard things knowing that we have each others backs. We get to come to the gym, and expand our capacity, so we can show up for the people in our lives. Our athletes are supported, cared for, and valued in this space. All we ask is your absolute best effort every single day. So whether you've never touched a barbell or you're looking towards international medals, we've got you. We've coached folks through it all. Looking to go from zero to strong? We got you. Love lifting and want to compete? We hella do that. Have specific goals for your lifts? We'll crush 'em. Whatever your strength needs are, let's get there together. Don't just hear it from us, check out what our athletes have to say below and on the google. Experience it for yourself - schedule a tour or drop into class for free. Meet Our Coaches We don’t have trainers, we have coaches Your coach, to be specific. One person, a partner in the gym and out, to support your specific goals, pain points, and life. Your coach knows where you’re at, they know where you’re going, and how to get you there. They know where you hold stress, where you injured yourself in college and when life gets hectic, how to best support you staying healthy and strong through it. A trainer is interchangeable, a person who shows you a movement, and keeps you accountable for the time you’re in the gym together. A coach supports your journey, while teaching you what you need, rather than needing them forever. Experience the difference and a better way to train. Holly Noll No one expected Holly to become a coach and spend now well over a decade owning a gym. PE was not a favorite growing up, and sports have never been anything other than somewhere to get bullied or fall short. An overweight kid, she spent her young life in activism, and punk rock/hardcore, booking and playing shows, touring, etc. After a young career spent as a professional chef, and an aggressively amateur musician, she saw CrossFit and a sport that appealed, a sport that looked cool, tough, equal. Where women were held up as the incredible athletes they are, rather than marginalized to "women's sports". Lifting weights seemed like someplace to belong. Competitive CrossFit became Competitive Powerlifting became Competitive Weightlifting, with a non-linear path circling back to each other occasionally in pursuit of the simple act of loving strength and movement. She loves working with athletes of all kinds, and currently has a full roster that is the Resilient Powerlifting Team. She's coached athletes to state records, national qualifiers, international meets, countless gold medals and PRs, multiple back-to-back "best teams" in USAPL, and holds the current CA state record in Bench in USPA as well as American and Pan-American records in the Snatch. The Resilient Strength Powerlifting team accepts applications in in a rolling fashion so please reach out asap if you'd like to join, as we can get you training and in with the team. Coaching the Individual Brian Wilbur Brian is a lifelong athlete who played football professionally in Spain and France. He came to strength coaching through the confluence of sport and teaching, a former high school football coach and math teacher he found his calling in working with athletes. He is our Head Weightlifting Coach at Resilient Strength and coaches both our Youth and Adult teams in the sport of Olympic Weightlifting to develop athleticism and teach grit, resilience, kindness, and perseverance. He’s a a competitive weightlifter himself, retired quarterback, and former offensive line coach who also uses weightlifting with ball-sport athletes who compete on the national stage in, football, rugby, and more. Brian holds Pan-American records in snatch, clean & jerk, and total and is the 2025 America’s Cup 94 kg class champion. He received his Masters in Coaching and Exercise science at Concordia University-Irvine. He is a USA Certified Weightlifting Coach, and International Youth Coaches Association Speed & Agility Coach. Blue Collar Coaching Paola Garcia For the entirety of her adulthood, Paola has been countering negative stereotypes about strength to encourage young women to take up space in the gym. She is well-versed in the challenges faced by new and seasoned lifters and has experience breaking down barriers. In her own fitness journey, Paola has transformed her body and mind through the power of strength training and her own coaching. She analyzes the bigger picture, not just progressions in the gym, to boost wellbeing, performance, and confidence. As a UC Berkeley student and certified personal trainer, Paola is always learning from her research and network of fitness professionals to become the best coach she can be. She has advanced skills in collaboration and problem solving, so whatever your circumstances are, Paola will work with you to make your fitness goals your reality. Paola loves what she does and is excited to show you how strength can improve every aspect of your life. Paola is a decorated competitive powerlifter who holds the USPA California State Record in Deadlift and is competing at 2026 USAPL Equipped Nationals. Chase RPE 10 Sierra Watkins Sierra is our assistant weightlifting coach and incredible athlete. She’s a former professional rugby player with extensive experience in training speed, explosive power, as well as the core movements of olympic weightlifting: snatch, clean, jerk, squat, pull. WL Class w/ Sierra Ash Ash is a seasoned mental health professional and dedicated motorcycle rider coach with over 15 years of experience in each field. Combining a passion for psychological well-being with hands-on leadership in site management, he brings a unique blend of empathy, organizational acumen, and strategic vision to every role he undertakes. Let’s not forget that Ash spent much of his youth racing bicycles with the USCF as a category II rider. Throughout his 15‐year career in mental health, Ash delivered individual and group counseling to diverse populations, including adults and families, collaborating with multidisciplinary teams—psychiatrists, social workers, and community organizations—to design and implement treatment plans. As a rider coach, I developed and delivered advanced motorcycle rider training programs, emphasizing safety, technique, and mental readiness, as well as risk assessments to ensure client safety and stress management. Cycling taught me how to compete both as a team and as an individual, and that my performance had a direct impact on everyone on the team. Cycling taught me grit and how to win the battle in my head, and to keep pushing forward, no matter what that voice says. In powerlifting, I have used this same mindset to keep moving forward and stay focused on goals and live life as an athlete. Finding the Resilient Strength community has been a true gift that has shown me that I have a blend of skills that would lead me to the joy of coaching strength training techniques and helping people find that “Fight and Grit” that we all hav The Resilient Strength 0 Skip to Content Home Get Started About Us Testimonials Virtual Tour FAQs Coaches + Ethos Coaching Videos Coaches Podcast Remote + Hybrid Drop In Let's Go!
