“Bryce, Danni and the whole CBB community have been an absolute game changer to my training! The app has SO many program options from how many days a week you want to train, to the intensity and even going into comp or off season training, so I could really make it fit my busy lifestyle. The discord community on its own is absolutely priceless! Having an entire community of people from all over the world with different experiences and expertise at my fingertips 24/7, is unbelievable when it comes to looking for ideas on things to test and try to maximise my training that have already worked for others. The discord is like a true family, They are always encouraging, they will always boost you up when you need it and will always tell you when you need to push harder! I will be forever greatful for my CBB family!”

“I joined the CBB App shortly after my first powerlifting meet when I needed guidance on what to do next with regards to programming. Upon joining I was met with a whole community of like-minded lifters focused on getting stronger as well as dozens of program templates and coaching advice directly from Bryce and his coaches.

Not only was I able to make great progress in the past two years using the programs, but I gained a ton of knowledge from communicating directly with the coaches and other members of the community.

The app is super easy to use during your workout. And with uploading footage directly to it, you are able to save storage on your phone and track all your progress in one place. “

“I started using the app in Spring of 2021. I was also one of the first Discord adopters. I started originally with the intent of trying the new 2nd edition of the CBB 16 week program and thoroughly enjoyed it. As time went on and the program library grew, I really saw how great this could be for anyone coming in down the line. The Discord community also grew proportionally and remains one of the biggest draws. Everyone is incredibly supportive and the weekly check-ins with the CBB coaches helped me quite a lot through a few sticking points I was having with my squat. When I started using the app, I had a competition total of 415kg. My gym total estimate was about 440kg. In September of 2021 I totaled 497.5 at a meet. To this day my handler regrets my 3rd bench and swears I had 5kg more. It would have matched my app-estimated bench max perfectly. After my meet, family and career obligations caused me to lift sporadically for quite a while. The community helped keep me grounded and the program library updates kept me interested enough to stick with it through my rough patch. In February 2023 I reached a point where I could focus on strength once again and used the Covid Comeback program to resituate myself. I will be competing in 4 weeks and as it sits now my app-estimated total is 565kg. In my time with the CBB app and community I've added at least 100kg to my total and have vastly improved my physique. It's hard to overstate how much I recommend joining. You will not regret it.”

“After watching content from Calgary Barbell for quite some time to learn more about the sport I fell in love with, I decided to try out their app. I was somewhat skeptical about paying for training programs because I believe there are plenty of methods available to help you get stronger. However, the opportunity to receive direct feedback and form analysis from seasoned lifters like Bryce and Danii really captivated me. My lifts have improved significantly, not to mention my overall perspective on the sport and even life in general. Another fantastic aspect of being a member of the app is the amazing community that has formed on the Discord server. We share and discuss lifts, celebrate PR‘s together, educate each other about the sport and nutrition, talk about mental health or even go off-topic sometimes and have a laugh. I have nothing but love and appreciation for these people!”

“The training app is an easy recommendation for anyone even remotely interested dipping their toes in powerlifting, or even a more seasoned, intermediate lifter. Program array is vast and very well executed. The private discord group is the glue that holds all this together. Lots of great people, all in various stages of their lifting journey. Make sure to use the Check-in thread to get some professional eyes on your lifts and get some stellar feedback!”
