MEMBER TESTIMONIALS
Benoit C. Gauthier
Since joining Strength Squad, I’ve become a smoother, more precise operator off the shoulder and the hip. I can do more takes with less effort: longer takes, better framing because I’m less fatigued; I make better transitions because I can recruit the right muscles to go from one position to another smoothly.
My steadicam operating has also improved. Im smoother because I feel more through my feet and body; I can dance with the rig longer. My body recuperates better, faster, so I can go again and again and again for the long haul. I feel much more efficient.
Liz’s knowledge of the film business means she understands the schedules and habits of filmmakers. She knows we go to crafty when we’re bored. She knows we get in funky operating positions in cramped up small locations. She knows we’ll spend all day standing on hard cement studio floors. She actually knows what a Fraturday feels like. She knows we can’t just stop or do less work or change our schedule.
Liz knows how to prep us for a long career on set. What’s more: I feel like I can be honest with her and therefore with myself and as a result I push my physical limits further.

In 2018 I developed hip pain which evolved into a femoral stress fissure from improper form while running and operating. Three rounds of traditional physical therapy alleviated my acute pain, but couldn't solve the underlying issue that lead to recurrent injury.
Six months after finishing a round of PT, I'd be in pain again. As a new steadicam operator, these issues could have ended my career before it began.
Liz's analysis of the body's strengths and weaknesses is totally unlike the traditional PT approach.
Rather than focusing only on the site of pain, she looks at the whole body as a system, finessing the disconnections at the start of the chain that manifest as injury at the end.
Rather than putting a band-aid on your symptoms, Liz finds and treats the cause of your issues. After working with her, I'm not only free of pain, I've future-proofed myself against re-injury. I can't recommend her enough!

One of the greatest things about working with Liz in Strength Squad Elite is that she’s deeply knowledgeable about the physical requirements of operating.
As a former camera assistant and current movement pro, Liz has helped me to overcome issues I thought I’d have to live with.
Since joining, I have reduced pain and numbness in my hands and arms, improved my stability, strength, and built mass to protect my shoulders and hips.
Liz really sees you as a whole and works to understand your needs and limitations. Even when I’ve been slammed with work, I still see growth in ways I never did before.
Despite the wear and tear that occurs from tough operating days and the toll of travel jobs, Strength Squad Elite has given me the tools I need to take care of my body no matter the circumstances.

As an AC transitioning to operating steadicam, I wanted to build a good physical foundation and prevent injury while also developing my strength and stability.
I have been quite skinny my whole life, so I also knew I needed to gain weight.
As an AC, this didn’t bother me. However, as a steadicam operator, my low weight played a big role in feeling unstable with the rig.
Working with Liz in Strength Squad Elite, I was able to gain 30lbs in the past six months—a gain that I never expected was possible.
We also emphasized single leg stability exercises, and now I feel much more stable in the rig!
