The Training Ecosystem
MatriarX®
Built for the woman who wants more
The advanced training pathways inside Bodyweight Brigade. Designed for women who have built the foundations and are ready to pursue strength and skill at a higher level.
WHAT is MatriarX®
The ecosystem
beyond general training
Most women spend years building strength and skills without ever up-levelling. They hit a plateau, repeat the same training, or find themselves swtching between programs looking for they think is missing.
MatriarX® exists to provide that next step.
Built on Axis Theory™, MatriarX® is the advanced training layer inside Bodyweight Brigade. Rather than training for general strength and skill development, women enter specialised pathways built around a specific outcome.
Strength. Skill. Competition. Performance.
Two pathways. One system.
Because eventually the question becomes: what's next?
"Most women are either undertrained or misprogrammed when it comes to complex strength and skill work. We're told to work harder, without knowing what “working harder“ actually looks like. MatriarX® changes that."
— Shimi, Founder · Bodyweight Brigade
Two pathways. One system.
Some women want to get stronger.
Some want to learn skills.
most want both.
MatriarX® is split into two specialised pathways because strength and skill require different training priorities. Both are built on the same system and both contribute to long term progress.
Most women will spend time in both. The difference is what your training needs right now.
Pathway 01 · Strength
MatriarX® Games
For the woman who wants to develop raw strength and prove it.
MatriarX® Games is the strength pathway inside the MatriarX® system. It's built around developing raw, functional strength that transfers directly into skill work.
MatriarX® Games is the home of our competition arm. A progress based strength event designed around one question:
How much stronger are you than you were at baseline?
This is strength training with a clear way to measure progress.
What Games develop:
Strength: Building the numbers that make advanced skills easier.
Confidence Under Load: Learning what you're capable of when the weight gets heavy.
Performance Benchmarks: Clear numbers that show exactly where your strength sits.
Competitive Readiness: The ability to test your strength in a competition environment.
Pathway 02 · Skill
MatriarX® Elevate
For the woman who wants to do the cool things.
MatriarX® Elevate is the skill pathway inside the MatriarX® system. The place where strength gets translated into skill.
Most skill programs give you exercises. Elevate gives you a progression map.
Built on Axis Theory™, every skill is broken down into clear stages so you know exactly where you are, what's missing and what comes next. Handstands, levers and other bodyweight movements stop feeling like distant goals and start becoming a series of steps you can actually follow.
What Elevate develops:
Advanced Skills: Handstands, levers, and other complex bodyweight movements
Body Awareness: A better understanding of how to control your body in space.
Progression Maps: A clear pathway from where you are to where you want to go.
Skill Mastery: The ability to confidently perform the skills you've worked towards.
THE MatriarX® STANDARD
What this produces
The MatriarX® athlete.
There is a specific kind of woman who comes out the other side of training inside this system. She is not defined by how she looks. Instead, she’s defined by what she can do, how reliably she can do it, and how consistently she progresses.
She has strength that has a clear carryover into skill. She knows how to train - which means she will never again follow a program blindly and wonder why it isn't working.
That is the MatriarX® standard. It’s the outcome of spending enough time inside a system where every movement, progression and phase of training leads somewhere.
-
Built with a specific purpose relative to your skill targets and your body's response to load.
-
Every skill has a map. Every session on that map has a reason. Know where you are, what's next and what needs to happen to get there.
-
The system does not move you to the next thing before the current thing is solid. This is why MatriarX® athletes don't plateau the way athletes in generic programs do. The foundation is never skipped.
-
Not adapted from a male model. Built from the data of women's bodies - how they absorb load, how they recover, how their strength and skill development actually works across the training cycle.
WHO MatriarX® IS FOR
Entry requirements
You've done the foundational work. Now what?
MatriarX® is the next stage for women who have trained through The Lab and are ready for the advanced layer of the system. Entry to both pathways is by coach invitation following assessment inside The Lab.
At this stage, training becomes more specific. Strength has a specific goal, skill development has a pathway and progress will become easier to measure because you're working towards something more concrete.
That's what MatriarX® was built for.
Not yet in the system?
The entry point for every BWB member is The Lab. That's where the Axis Theory™ foundation gets built - and where the invitation to MatriarX® eventually comes from.
THE TRIAL
The way in
Every MatriarX® athlete started in The Lab.
The 1 week trial is the entry point for every new BWB member. It gives you full access to The Lab - personalised classes, elite level coaching, the actual system - before you commit to anything.
By the end of the week, you'll know exactly where you sit in the Axis Theory progression and what the right next step is for your body. We'll tell you. That's part of what the trial is for.
No gym experience required. No performance standard to meet. Just show up.
