Most fitness programs treat you like you need to be fixed.
We believe your body deserves respect, curiosity, and a movement practice that actually fits your life.
Learn from someone who's been questioning fitness dogma for 30+ years.
Chip founded BodyTribe on a simple idea: training should build you up, not break you down.
Over three decades, he's trained with legends like Tommy Kono and Mel Siff, coached athletes internationally, run a brick-and-mortar gym for nearly 20 years, and created a massive library of training content. But what sets him apart isn't the credentials. It's the philosophy.
Chip teaches you to think, not just follow.
Instead of handing you a cookie-cutter program, he gives you the principles to build your own movement practice. One that respects your body, fits your life, and develops skills you'll actually use.
You'll understand the "why" behind every movement, so you can eventually program yourself.
No fitness guilt. No suffering for suffering's sake. Just honest training that builds capabilities.
Three decades of teaching bodies, spirits, and minds how to move better.
Before I ever met Chip Conrad, people were convinced that we would become friends. Those people were right; Chip is not only one of the brightest minds in fitness but his kindness and caring make him one of a kind. Chip has the ability to take a lot of stuff and compress it into something understandable and insightful. I have learned so much from him...especially how the movements connect and combine together. He is brilliant. He is innovative. I strongly suggest this: When Chip speaks...listen.
Chip is a wonderful guy, deep thinker, explorer, and a really effective teacher. I have watched his work, bought his book and DVDs, learned a lot from him, and even had an ice cream cone with him...I am always drawn in by Chip's creativity...I always learn or reinforce an idea when i tune in.
Lift incredibly heavy stuff, move like a cat, and more importantly, the ability to teach anything to anyone. Chip is the real deal. If you want to be able to do it, and do it right, he is the coach to learn from.
