Erin Murray

After trying and failing at pretty much every sport growing up, I finally found my passion in college when I was introduced to powerlifting. I immediately fell in love with strength training as a whole, and eventually found my forever home in the strongman community.

 

I have been coaching in the Seattle area since 2017 and enjoy working with people at any step in their fitness journey – whether you’ve never walked into a gym before or are training for competition. I’m especially passionate about getting people into strongman for the first time. My favorite part of the job is introducing people to their inner badass! The look on someone’s face the first time they load a stone or press a log – "priceless".

 

I joined the ranks as a professional middleweight strongwoman after winning nationals in 2019. I've competed in three different weight classes since then, winning the title of World's Strongest Woman u73kg and most recently earning my heavyweight Pro card as well by taking first at the amateur Arnold world championship. I'm currently training for World's Strongest Woman in the 82kg weight class out of Dungeon Strength RX in Federal Way, where I'm lucky to have an amazingly supportive gym community.
