Solid gym with all the heavy lifting equipment you could want, and plenty of racks to go around. The owners/managers are nice, welcoming and responsive. No frills in terms of amenities, just a place to go and lift stuff. I’d love to see more space for open turf space for warm-up and equipment like bands and foam rollers.

I stopped in for my first lift on a Saturday, which was free (every Saturday from 11am-3pm!) and I was extremely impressed with the facility and staff. As a competitive powerlifter, finding decent equipment in the city can be a challenge, but they had everything I could possibly want! Their bars and plates are top notch and I usually don't use machines, but they had some really impressive machines/attachments for accessory work. On top of that, their music was on point and the 24/7 availability with on-site shower is clutch. Super convenient to get to from the Broad Street Line as well!
