"Visited from out of town, the process for dropping in was all remote and online, response time was very good. Gym itself very well stocked with all the powerlifting goodies, including bars, platforms, benches, dumbbells, squat racks. Ample parking, good tunes."

"It's a little different from my gym but, its a little more geared to Olympic lifting. Not a bad gym but not a conjugate gym for sure. Everyone is very nice. Everything you need for conventional powerlifting."

"Great gym! I was visiting from out of town and did a drop in for some oly lifting. Set up and instructions were straight forward and the owner was quick to answer via email. It was legitimately the cleanest gym I’ve ever been to, even the bars didn’t have chalk on them because everyone cleans after using. The only down side was that there wasn’t a great space to do any stretching for warm up/cool down/accessories that I saw (I might have missed it). I just kind of stretched in front of/on the platform I was going to use because there were several open. Will probably drop in again next time I’m in town!"
