Strength & Conditioning

Small-group strength and conditioning coaching designed to help you get stronger, move better, build confidence, and push past plateaus.

Strength That Carries Into Real Life.

Our strength and conditioning classes are designed to improve strength, endurance, athleticism, confidence, and overall fitness through structured coach-led training.

What are Strength & Conditioning Classes?

Strength and conditioning classes at Burleson Strength & Fitness combine resistance training, cardio conditioning, kettlebells, battle ropes, sled work, and functional movement into coach-led group workouts designed to improve strength, endurance, fat loss, confidence, and overall fitness. Every workout is scalable, making the classes effective for beginners, experienced lifters, athletes, and adults looking to improve long-term health and performance.

Are Strength & Conditioning Classes Good For Beginners??

Yes. Our strength and conditioning classes are designed for all fitness levels. Every exercise can be modified based on experience, injuries, mobility limitations, or current fitness level.

Beginners receive coaching on proper form, movement patterns, pacing, and technique while building confidence in a supportive environment without feeling overwhelmed.

Can Strength & Conditioning Help With Weight Loss?

Strength and conditioning training is highly effective for fat loss because it combines muscle-building resistance exercises with conditioning work that increases calorie burn and improves metabolism. Building muscle also helps the body burn more calories throughout the day while improving strength, energy levels, and overall body composition.

What Types Of Exercises Are Included In Class??

Classes may include:

  • Kettlebell training
  • Sled pushes
  • Battle ropes
  • Dumbbell strength work
  • Core exercises
  • Functional movement patterns
  • Conditioning circuits
  • Athletic performance drills

Workouts are designed to improve real-world strength, endurance, stability, and overall athleticism.

MEET SHANTEL

Shantel also understands that many women have historically been taught to fear strength training or believe they should “take up less space.” Her coaching flips that narrative completely. She teaches women how to become stronger, more capable, and more confident without intimidation or unrealistic expectations.

Whether someone is brand new to fitness, returning after years away from the gym, balancing motherhood and stress, or looking to become more athletic and competitive, Shantel adapts training to the individual while still creating the motivating atmosphere of a team environment.

SHANTEL HOWARD

Strength & Conditioning Coach | Strongwoman Competitor | Women’s Strength Advocate

Shantel brings a rare mix of competitive strength experience, real-world coaching, and relentless encouragement to every class she leads at Burleson Strength and Fitness. Her coaching style is built around one core belief: strength changes more than your body. It changes how you move through the world.

7 years of lifting experience and 2 years competing in Strongman and Strongwoman events, Shantel understands firsthand what it takes to build confidence, resilience, and physical capability from the ground up. Her competitive background includes:

Competitor in Riveter 2

Competitor in Sasquatch Showdown 3


Her passion for strength sports gives her classes a unique edge. Members don’t just train harder. They learn how to move with purpose, improve real-world strength, and discover abilities they never thought they had. Kettlebells clang, sleds grind across turf, heart rates spike, and somewhere in the middle of it all, people begin standing a little taller.

Coaching Philosophy

Shantel specializes in helping people feel powerful again, regardless of age, experience, or fitness level. She understands that many clients walk into the gym carrying years of insecurity, stress, injuries, or intimidation around fitness. Her goal is to replace that fear with confidence through structured, supportive strength and conditioning.
