Janice Woerner

Janice Woerner has been an integral part of Pulse Barbell Club since its founding in 2017.

A Kings Park native who grew up in Northport, Janice discovered weightlifting in 2015. Her personal journey with the sport ignited a passion for sharing the transformative power of lifting with others. Her mission is clear: to show anyone who thinks they "can’t lift" that they absolutely can—and she has the credentials to back it up.

Janice holds certifications as a CSCS and USAPL Certified Powerlifting Coach and serves as a USAPL State Referee. Her athletic achievements are equally remarkable. She is a USAPL National Team Member, a USAPL National Champion, and a Silver Medalist at the IPF World Championships.

With over five years of coaching experience, Janice’s influence extends beyond competition. One notable success story involves a close friend she coached in powerlifting. After attending a world championship meet with Janice, her friend embarked on her own fitness journey, gaining confidence, shedding weight, and excelling in the gym under Janice’s guidance.

When she’s not coaching or competing, Janice balances her professional life as a Facility Contract Manager for Optimum Behavior Health, further showcasing her dedication to helping others achieve their potential.
