One of the best gyms you'll find anywhere. Serious powerlifters, bodybuilders, strongmen/strongwomen, and all kinds of others interested in fitness and improving themselves. They have a ton of great equipment, but it's the community you'll find there that makes this place a gem.

I live in Pittsburgh PA and often visit my family in Ithaca. I reached out to to the gym prior to my visit and Rheta was nothing but helpful. This is a badass gym with everything you could possibly need. Everyone there was super friendly and helpful. Great energy too! I will certainly be going back next time I'm up that way.
