My new favorite gym in Richmond. I attended another “powerlifting” gym for a while where things were happening that I didn’t agree with and everyone talked about each other, etc.
this gym has the family feel and everyone has been so nice to me. It’s always so clean and the staff are so friendly. Also so convenient to be able to get a shake after your lift.

Hands down the best gym in Richmond. Almost always spotless. Nice members. 24/7 is a huge perk. The equipment they have is awesome. They have everything a normal gym has and then some.
