What an amazing place. Everyone from the staff to the clients are incredibly friendly, supportive and knowledgeable. It’s not just a place to lift but a place that also teaches you body mechanics and how to achieve great form under the supervision of the owners....also there is always snacks....

Joining here has been the best lifting choice I ever made. It is a warm, welcoming gym that values it's people and treats everyone kindly. I feel both lucky and honored to be able to lift with some of the strongest people out there. If you want to get stronger, or simply just want a friendly place to better yourself, look no further!

I love this gym. The coaches know their sh!t and have the competition records to prove it. They've built a wonderful community here that's supportive of men and women. Kaylie programs my workouts and I am guaranteed to feel them in the best way the next day. I'm happy I found this place and will continue coming here.

Great little powerlifting gym. I was just visiting Portland from LA, and Strength Union allows out of towners to train free of charge.They have every speciality bar a powerlifter could need. Belt Squat, T Row, lifting platforms, power racks, monoliths, hip thruster... You get the idea.Great gym, great staff. I will return.

The staff/ownership is beyond attentive, knowledgeable, and welcoming - making this the perfect place for those stepping into a gym that specializes in strength training for the first time as well as a place seasoned competitors can advance. Tony, Kaylie, Kelley, and Justin are very kind and there to help everyone equally. They’ve cultivated an atmosphere that successfully promotes making progress with your strength/fitness goals and I can’t speak highly enough about the place.
