What you get
Real coaching,
not a PDF
Templates don't know you. Online coaching with Atlas is built around your goals, your equipment and your schedule, and it changes as you do.
All in one place
Each day's workout with sets, reps and loads on your phone. Log every set so your progress is tracked week to week.
Video form review
Film your lifts and send them in. You'll get cues to clean up your technique, just like in the gym.
Weekly check-ins
We stay in touch about training, recovery and life, so you have a coach in your corner instead of a login.
Adjusted as you go
Your program is updated based on your logs, videos and check-ins. When something isn't working, it changes.
Any gym, any schedule
Commercial gym, home gym or garage setup. Your plan fits the equipment you actually have.
Inside the app
Built for
real training
Your whole program, your logs and your coach in one place. These are real screens from the Atlas Strength app.
Why not just a PDF?
A coach,
not a file
A PDF or a generic app gives you workouts. Coaching gives you someone who watches, adjusts and answers.
A PDF program

- Nobody checks your form
- No one to ask when something hurts

Your coach
Patrick Rice
I don't just write programs. I'm a competitive strongman athlete who took 2nd place at USS Strongman Nationals, a former nationally ranked powerlifter, and I've been training for more than 15 years.
I have a BS in Kinesiology from SUNY Cortland and I'm NSCA-CPT certified. Every online program is written and reviewed by me, the same way I coach my clients in the gym.
Client results
In their words
What clients say about Patrick's coaching and programming.
“The best place to go for serious training the owner Patrick is the man to see for solid programs or personal training from people getting in shape, to competitive strongmen/powerlifters…”
“When I started, I was 70 pounds overweight (if not more) and very out of shape. Thanks to Patrick's guidance and support, I've lost over 60 pounds and can now lift over 400 pounds – something I never thought possible.”
“He knows exactly how to push me without ever making me feel overwhelmed, and every session feels purposeful and personalized.”
Questions
FAQ
Anything else? Call or text .
Do I need to be near Long Island?
No. Online coaching works from anywhere. All you need is a place to train and your phone.
What equipment do I need?
It depends on your goals, but your program is always built around what you have, whether that's a full commercial gym or a rack and some dumbbells in your garage.
I'm a beginner. Is online coaching right for me?
It can be. Video form review means your technique still gets coached. If you're local and brand new to lifting, starting with a few in-person sessions is a great option too.
How does form review work?
Film a set on your phone and send it over. I'll watch it and send back cues on what to fix and what to keep doing.
Can I mix online and in-person training?
Yes. Some clients train in person once a week and follow their program in the app the rest of the week.
Is there a contract?
No. Online coaching is month to month.
Do I need to download an app?
No. The Atlas Strength app runs in your phone's browser. Open the link I send you in Safari or Chrome and add it to your home screen. It opens and works just like any other app.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. It works on any modern iPhone or Android phone, and on a tablet or computer too.
How do I send you form videos?
Record your set and upload it right in the app, on the exercise you're doing. I watch it and send back cues to clean up your technique.
How fast do you answer messages?
Within hours. Quick fixes usually get a reply within an hour, and bigger changes the same day. You can message me about any exercise, any day, right in the app.
What if something hurts or I miss a workout?
Flag the pain area in the app and exercises that load it will show safer swaps. If you miss days, message me and I'll adjust your week. Your plan changes when life does.
