Hi, I’m Erin!

I’m owner and head trainer at Holmes Strength and I help people move better, feel great and get really, really strong.

I believe everyone - yes, every single human being - can benefit from strength training. When programmed intelligently, strength training not only improves athletic performance, but it also reduces injury risk, promotes pain-free movement and builds a resilient body FOR LIFE.

No matter your age or training ability, you deserve to feel and perform your best, and I want to help you.

Fitness fundamentals for lifelong optimal health.

Improve Joint Health

Help prevent injury with proper joint care. Joint mobility is an expression of strength, and describes the range of motion of a particular joint that we have control over. Mobility is functional and it is a crucial component in any well-balanced strength training program. Let me help you improve your mobility and build strong, resilient joints.

Functional & Sustainable Training

Sadly, many people’s current understanding of what constitutes an effective workout is sweat, excessive soreness and fatigue. This couldn’t be further from the truth. In order to build true strength and achieve your fitness goals, you must train intelligently and purposefully. A well-designed strength training program is based on the fundamentals of movement and uses methods backed by science to achieve superior results that are functional outside the gym and sustainable for a lifetime.

Build Strength As You Age

The benefits of strength training for older adults is undeniable: Increases in bone density, prevention of age-related muscle loss, improvements in overall strength and power generation, increased metabolism, better cognitive functioning, greater independence…the list literally goes on! You can greatly improve your quality of life by getting stronger at any age. It’s that simple.

After 28 years behind a desk with a resulting bulging disc in my lower back, my wife introduced me to Erin. We have fun workouts two or three times a week that focus on core stability and basic movement. Within a year I am getting out of bed without issues and was able to run a sub 1:54 half marathon this past winter. Thank you for giving me my life back, Erin.

Erin is incredibly knowledgeable and articulate about teaching how to do every exercise properly for the best gains and mobility. She creates awesome workouts for me and I’ve gotten and continue to get the strength gains I wanted. I’m currently training for Yukon 1000 endurance canoe race and I feel stronger than ever! I’m so grateful I was referred to her and have referred others with complete confidence.
