Do you have a passion for health and fitness and want to share it with the world?
We are looking to add writers to our team here at StrengthLog. Are you the one we’re searching for?
StrengthLog.com receives over 20.000 readers daily, and we write articles on the topics of health and fitness, exercise science, bodybuilding, powerlifting, and nutrition.
What Are We Looking For?
Here are some of our values and what we typically look for in an article:
- Quality over quantity. We are looking to publish in-depth articles that cover a topic thoroughly. As a result, our articles are often 2 000 words or longer.
- Evidence-based. We do our best to back our claims with evidence and scientific sources. If a claim is a personal or public opinion, we ensure it’s clear.
- Experience and expertise. We want writers who can pair personal experience with expertise in their writing topics.
- Friendly and direct. StrengthLog is your personal training buddy, and we write our articles as if we were talking to a friend at the gym.
- Basic SEO. Most of our traffic comes from search engines, and while we will teach you what we know about how to have your articles rank, a basic SEO understanding from the beginning helps.
And What We’re Not Looking For
On the contrary, here are some examples of what we don’t want:
- Guest Posts and One-offs. We’re looking for a long-term addition to our content team, not just one or two articles.
- Link builders. If you’re only looking to land a quick backlink to your site, this ain’t it, buddy.

- Job type: Freelance.
- Location: Remote.
- Payment: You send us a monthly invoice, with compensation on a per-word basis. Compensation is agreed upon later on.
