Adam Martin, SSC
Head Coach & Gym Co-Owner
Adam has a history of training and coaching Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in West Virginia. He began training with the Starting Strength model in 2019 and put on 70 pounds. He squatted 550lbs, deadlifted 600lbs, pressed 255lbs, and benched 420lbs. He began coaching clients all over the Cincinnati area in 2020 and then received his SSC in early 2022, where he became the Head Coach at Starting Strength Cincinnati. Adam then had the opportunity to open Starting Strength Atlanta, where he plans to build a total of five gyms.
His goal as a coach is to help others overcome their personal battles and adversity while finding their inner confidence. Adam believes, “Strength is fundamental to a well-lived life. Anything you do, you are better at it if you are strong. Whether you are a nurse, physician, dentist, football player. You are better at it if you are strong.”
