Serious About the Snatch and Clean & Jerk? So Are We.
MINT Strength offers expert Olympic weightlifting coaching — remote or in-person — built around movement quality, technical consistency, and long-term progress.
Movement-First Coaching for Lifters
MINT Strength was founded by coaches Jay Malone and Kristen Jones with one belief: better movement leads to better lifting. Since 2011, we’ve coached athletes across the U.S. — from beginners picking up a barbell for the first time to competitive weightlifters chasing PRs on the platform.
Whether you’re in Charlotte or across the country, our remote coaching gives you direct access to expert technique feedback, individualized programming, and a coach who is invested in your success.
