About Us

Starting Strength Scottsdale is a barbell-based strength training franchise gym specializing in the Starting Strength method — a proven, evidence-based approach to building strength through free-weight barbell training. Operated by owner and head coach Matthew McGill, a retired U.S. Air Force veteran, the gym provides one-on-one and small-group strength coaching serving the Scottsdale area. We can train anyone — young, elderly, and everything in between.

We help our members build real, measurable strength to address the physical challenges of aging — pain, weakness, and loss of independence — so they can live stronger, more capable lives. Our coaching is grounded in the methodology developed by Mark Rippetoe, delivered with a high standard of individualized attention and honest, straightforward guidance.
