Building Stronger Bodies and Minds in the South Shore Community
Ali and Jenny, two residents of the South Shore, didn’t just want to open a gym in the community—they wanted to build a hub where athletes of all ages can push boundaries, reach personal goals, and build strength physically and mentally. Founded in 2021, Magnitude Strength & Power reflects Ali and Jenny’s commitment to health, wellness, and sports performance as strength coaches. Since it’s been open, Magnitude has become a hotspot for those seeking to improve their physical and mental well-being.
A Vision for All Ages
Magnitude’s mission is simple, but powerful: Ali and Jenny believe that workouts should build you up, not break you down. They apply that philosophy to everything they do both in their lives and their business, from their strength programs for adults looking to stay healthy to their specialized training for young athletes aiming to up their game. At Magnitude, high school athletes, adults looking to lead an active lifestyle, and everyone in between can receive the expertise, guidance, and support to help them thrive.
Ali and Jenny’s own journey in strength training began in high school, where they discovered firsthand the benefits of strength training—not just for sport performance, but also for injury prevention and overall health. Motivated to share this knowledge with others, they became Certified Functional Strength Coaches through Mike Boyle Strength & Conditioning, a credential that gave them the tools to bring progressive, purposeful strength programming to the South Shore.
Training That Works for You
Different gyms can offer different approaches to fitness, but Magnitude distinguishes itself above the rest through their dedication to meeting the unique needs of every client. That personalized and tailored approach means that clients at Magnitude enjoy fulfilling and effective experiences, whether that’s a group training session or private coaching. At Magnitude, programs aren’t about pushing clients to the limit just for the sake of a sweaty workout. . Instead, Ali and Jenny use their expertise to prioritize smart, science-backed training that aligns with each individual’s goals, addressing everything from posture and mobility to speed, strength, and conditioning.
One of the gym’s focuses is on youth sports performance, and that’s been a huge part of their success. Magnitude offers training for middle schoolers, high schoolers, and younger kids through their Youth Sports Performance programs, which target essential athletic skills like speed, agility, power, and endurance. That training helps young athletes to excel in their sports as well as foster healthy habits that will benefit their lifestyles for years to come.
A Community-Focused Business
For Ali and Jenny, one of the proudest achievements of Magnitude Strength & Power is its deep connection to the local community. That connection is evident in their support for youth sports teams, their partnerships with organizations like Morgan’s Message (which raises awareness about mental health among student-athletes), and their commitment to helping families through initiatives like fundraising for the Headstrong Foundation, which provides housing for families of cancer patients.
What makes the South Shore so special to Ali and Jenny is the support they’ve received from local residents. "The South Shore really embraces and supports small, locally-owned businesses. It’s a labor of love to open your own business, and the community here recognizes that," says Ali. Magnitude’s clients aren’t just gym-goers—they’re neighbors, friends, and teammates, and the gym works hard to foster an environment where everyone feels like part of the family.
A Growing Future
For Magnitude Strength & Power, the future is bright. Since opening, they’ve nearly doubled the gym’s physical space by adding new indoor and outdoor training areas to meet growing demand. And while the physical expansion is exciting, their growth goes beyond just space: They’ve expanded their knowledge, too, to keep serving clients the highest quality fitness resources. With a focus on injury prevention and recovery, Magnitude has become a trusted asset for clients before and after surgeries, and they’ve recently introduced mental skills training for athletes, helping them build confidence, leadership, and resilience.
Looking forward, Ali and Jenny plan to continue building their reputation as one of the top strength and conditioning facilities in the area, expanding their offerings, and continuing to provide high-quality service to their community. They’re also focused on growing their family-friendly atmosphere, with programs like the Sunday "Training Camps" where parents and kids can train together to build wellness into everyone’s lifestyle.
Tips for Starting Your Own Fitness Journey
For anyone looking to start or restart their fitness journey, Ali and Jenny’s best advice is to focus on consistency, not intensity. Their philosophy: Start small, stay consistent, and you'll see progress. And if you find yourself slipping off track, don’t be hard on yourself—just pick right back up the next day.
That’s where Magnitude comes in as an asset not just for actual working out, but for support and motivation. Having a coach by your side can also make all the difference, providing the accountability, motivation, and guidance needed to navigate those inevitable bumps in the road.
Conclusion
Magnitude Strength & Power isn’t just a gym: It’s meaningful to its clients and to the community in ways that go beyond the workouts. Magnitude has become a place for building strength, health, and confidence, and it’s where community members can support each other through their wellness journeys, families build lasting wellness habits, and athletes develop an edge.
By focusing on progressive, individualized training, Magnitude sets itself apart as a way to build strength in all parts of life—and its commitment to community engagement shows that health goes beyond the individual.
