Wonderful gym geared for weight/powerlifting. At least 8-10 different places to squat, with 4+ to deadlift and to bench with the option to add even more if it gets busy. I have never had to wait for any equipment. Owner is nice and welcoming. If you are looking for a weightlifting geared gym this may be the best in Pittsburgh. Very reasonable price too.

10/10 gym. Celli's fitness center is a great powerlifting gym. Great equipment and atmosphere. Also, metal plates!!! Ryan is a phenomenal trainer and friend. I am honored to have him in my corner for competitions. He has helped me tremendously in gym performance. No matter the level or experience Ryan can help create the best training specifically designed for you!

I moved to Pittsburgh for what I thought was only going to be 3 months and ended up staying a year. Since I try to workout as much as possible in my home gym back home the first thing I needed to find was a gym and I don't like the big box gyms. I found Cellis, scheduled an appointment and knew right away when I walked in, met Ryan and saw all the equipment he has and all his trophies that this was the place. Cellis Gym is clean, well organized, and well equipped. They have it all, from cardio, to machines, to benches, squat racks, etc. If you are looking for great gym without all the fluff then you have to try Celli's you won't be disappointed. I never once had to wait to use any equipment. Ryan and his wife run the place and they are some of the nicest most down to earth people I have met in Pittsburgh. I am going to miss this place.

Ryan is an amazing online personal trainer. Since working with him for a bit over a year I've added muscle, learned a ton about lifting, am breaking old PRs, and getting injured way less while lifting heavier weights. If you can get an online training slot with Ryan, just do it. It's worth every penny and more. (The gym is great too but for practical reasons I can't get down there much.)

Awesome. I found this gym when I moved in the area and have loved it since. Ryan, Dana and Noah are experts and willing to share their knowledge. Lots of great people. If you want to get strong, highly recommend. All the equipment you need and then some.

Ryan Celli is a phenomenal instructor. I trained with him, as well his son Noah, for a little over a month. I started as a know-nothing and ended being confident at squat, deadlift, benchpress, and isolated lifts. I found both Ryan and Noah to be great communicators, as well as patient, professional, knowledgeable, and motivating. If you want to set clear goals to get stronger and reach them, Celli's is the place.

Not the best gym. Expensive for what it is and many of the machines are old, seemingly from the 80s. Ryan and Dana were also rude at times and would complain about basic lifting such as "deadlifting too loud", which is unequivocally not an …

Celli's Fitness Center is convenient, clean, safe, and a good value. The owner is very visible, is service oriented and friendly. This is a great small business that provides tremendous value to our community.

I have been a member now for an entire year. First of all the price is a bargain for what you get out of this place. Most other gyms in the surrounding area don’t have the extensive equipment like Cellis, and if they do they have a tiered pricing system to be able to access other certain speciality equipment. It’s a family run gym so not only do you get an amazing array of equipment you also get a sense of community. This gym has members who have been training there for countless years. Ryan and Dana also offer personal training services that you can partake in which you’re getting 1 on 1 personal training from vetted bodybuilding and powerlifting champions. You can ask a question about a machine or a movement and they’ll take time out of their day to help you be better. I don’t have one bad thing to say about this place. Even on my worst day I walk out of Cellis feeling stronger and most importantly better mentally. Cellis is not just a gym it’s a community.

I have been "lifting" for years but never able to progress beyond beginner stage (I started lifting heavier and then somehow hurt myself). I decided to take lessons with Ryan. These lessons have completely transformed my workout routine. He …
