SoCal Powerlifting

Socal powerlifting is a great gym for experienced and novice lifters. The people are very friendly and the sales guy was really easy about getting the weekend pass which is a much more affordable option for me. Also, a lot of the equipment is definitely an upgrade from what I’m used to. I’m looking forward to future training days here.

Jenna knows what she does!Jenna is my coach at SoCal Powerlifting. She definitely knows what she is doing, in only 3 weeks I have noticed a difference not only in my body shape but also in my strength. I'm definitely gaining muscle. I am a beginner and Jenna has been so patient with me, I really love that, and her positive comments. I feel really good coming to the gym. I like that it is open 24/7. I like the personalized sessions, Jenna is so professional.The staff is also really nice and polite.

I live in LA but I recently started working in Santa Ana. I was looking for a local gym when I came across SoCal Powerlifting in Irvine. What caught my attention was that it had plenty of free weighs, bars, squat racks, etc. I stopped by the gym one day after work and met Alex Gaynor. He gave me a tour of the gym and provided some information regarding pricing and coaching. A few days later I scheduled my lift evaluations with Jaden Codorniz, who is now my coach.It was obvious for me from the get go that Alex, Jaden, and everyone at SoCal Powerlifting are passionate about what they do and take it very seriously. I had never joined a gym like that and figured I would give it a shot. Although I have only been going there for a couple weeks I am very happy I joined and look forward to improving my lifting technique and strength along the way.If you’re looking for a gym that is serious about what they do, this is it.

I came in as a brand new lifter with back pain on my squat while doing Starting Strength 5x5. Got Tim as my coach and 1.5 years later I've more than doubled all of my PRs. aTim is patient, supportive, and brilliant. I love that I can workout any time, have access to the best equipment, never have to wait for a rack, receive high quality feedback daily, and just have to show up and hit the numbers Tim programs for me.Never thought I would compete or make close friends at a gym, but SoCal PL has gifted me both. Y'all da best 🐻

I’ve been going to this gym for almost 6 months and my overall gym knowledge and physique has improved! Coach Alyssa is my favorite! Not just because she’s my coach but she really try’s to answer all my silly questions and is very patient with me! Along with all the coaches I’ve interacted with at the gym! Being one of the smaller gym member here I don’t feel so small, everyone is very welcoming and helpful! Worth every coin I’m spending! (:

Love the atmosphere of the gym! All of the staff is easy to work with and provide excellent coaching. I've been powerlifting for a few years now and have always been self coached. Having SoCal Powerlifting has already made an improvement to my outlook on training and my lifts. The facility itself has all of the equipment you could want and it is all high quality. I hope to be here for many years to come.

I signed up at SoCal Powerlifting about a month ago after moving cities. I needed a gym with an elevated atmosphere from commercial gyms such as Fitness 19, LA Fitness, or 24 Hour Fitness. The facility is definitely worth the membership cost.The gym has made my meet prep go very smoothly. With 10 competition racks, I never have to wait for an open rack. The members are all goal oriented and take the gym seriously. The gym provides more than enough plates (kgs and lbs), tripods, and clips to make your time at the gym efficient and keep you in the zone since you don't need to worry about waiting for equipment.Great experience at SoCal Powerlifting!

I have been a local online client with SoCal Powerlifting for about a year and a half now and I absolutely love it. I originally found them in search for a 1-on-1 coach to help me train for my first powerlifting meet. I decided to stick around because I found a love for the sport and the community at this gym is so supportive. Also, the coaches all really care about their clients. My coach, Alyssa, is amazing. She has helped me improve my form and her programming has helped me see huge increases in my strength. I can't wait to compete here again in November.

I was struggling to find a gym that I felt comfortable at and was also open 24/7. I heard about SoCal Powerlifting and stopped in to check it out. From that day on, I have loved it! I have never been a part of a gym with such a strong and welcoming culture. It is very clean and everyone puts their plates and bars/dumbells up. Right now I’m not getting coached but in the future I will be considering it.Again, incredible gym for very experienced to beginners. There is zero judgement and just encouragement.

I'm really glad I found SoCal Powerlifting. The facility is clean, well equipped, and you never have to wait to use a rack or bench like other gyms. I also really enjoyed working with my coach (Mike) there. He is attentive to details and made sure that I built my lifting forms correctly from the ground up step by step. I travel a lot for work so their online training plan works great for me where I would meet with my coach once a month, after the initial assessment trainings. Also helps that the gym is 24/7 with membership if you have a busy work schedule. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great place to train.
