Roxanne Myers, LMT, NSCA-CPT, SFG Team Leader, is co-owner of Primitive Strength and Wellness alongside her husband in Amarillo Texas. Primitive Strength opened its doors in 2013 with the intention of using the principles of StrongFirst and Functional Movement Systems. Roxanne was honored to be promoted to StrongFirst Team Leader in 2017.
Roxanne became a Licensed Massage Therapist in 1999. Most of the students she coaches are also massage clients. She feels this gives her a deeper body knowledge of her students. Her primary goal in both modalities is to get her students more body aware they can slowly progress with minimal pain and no injuries.
One of our Team Leaders recently broke new ground—her goal was to complete "Sinister" with the 36kg bell, which is 60% of her bodyweight. This is how she did it.
Tammy Baskett is a 61-year-old dedicated student of strength and a massage therapy client of mine, but it hasn’t always been this way.
