I had been looking for a gym since I moved here. I tried quite a gyms in my area but I found the best gym to be Central Coast Barbell. This gym gives you an old school bodybuilding feeling. They have all the equipment you need. If you are like myself and powerlift, this gym is also for you. You have a platform for deadlifting, a deadlift bar and a power bar. You have a combo rack for squats and bench press. The community is great and many people are willing to help you or spot you. This gym has some equipment you would rarely find anywhere else (i.e. true squat machine) along with other machines such as a belt squat. The owner Danny is very helpful and welcoming. He has multiple payment options that range from monthly to yearly. The price is more than worth the membership and having 24/7 access to the gym is beyond helpful. This is a hidden gem within the central coast and I highly recommend this gym if your looking for a place to you reach your goals.

Open 24/7, lots of equipment, and a low membership fee. I love that they're consistently improving the gym. The updated lighting in the posing room was a game changer. The new weight sets, cable machine, and lateral raise, to name a few, were wonderful additions. Frequent community events, and the only gym around (that I know of) that has a reverse hyper extension. Amazing all around.

Probably one of the better gyms I have been to over the years. Nice clean open environment. Lots of free weights, open benches, squat racks and deadlifting platform. 24 hour access is such a key thing to have to me. Love being able to do what I need to do and not have to wait around to use anything.

Nothing fancy. Not a globo gym. Exactly my style. Per usual I used only dumbbells. Was camping with fam for 5 days at pismo so I got a week pass. You'll get a passcode but everytime I went which was evening there were already people there and roll doors were up. Reminded me of my old CrossFit box. Everyone stuck to them selves. I think I only saw 2 women in total besides myself the whole time I was there which bothers me not at all but thought I'd share in case a woman wants more female presence. If you are staying at oceano dunes (where I stayed) it's right around the corner Only negative is one evening the music was pretty foul. I knew every world lol cause I'm gen whatever listened to limp bizkit when he was doing it all for the nookie. However I'd rather not hear f bombs every other word these days. I'd still go back just thought I'd share if that's a turn off for ya. All in all I'd be a regular if I was local.

I'm new to this gym, but so far I really enjoy it. The atmosphere, the selection of equipment, and the chillness of everyone there really has helped me feel comfortable while adapting to this new environment. I'm excited to continue my journey here!

I went here for about a year and a half. As a woman who was new to lifting heavy, I liked that most of the time it was pretty empty - so rarely was there a wait for weights/machines and with less people = less intimidating for me as a newb. It also has everything you could ever want if you're into powerlifting etc. If you're a woman going here, know that it's 99.9% men. For the year and a half that I went everyone pretty much kept to themselves. But then I had one really creepy encounter and that was all it took for me not to feel safe here anymore. Sometimes it's just you and one other person there and no staff... that was a plus for me for a long time, until it wasn't. I emailed the staff after this situation happened and they just said "that's weird for him to do that, we'll talk to him". That didn't really make me feel any safer honestly, so I sadly canceled my membership. I'f you're a woman and decide to join, I would go with a partner or during the afternoon staff hours.

I got a guest pass in advance. I just contacted the office during 4:30-7pm. They texted me a link to a guest form to fill out. It's a great place to train with old school feel. There are several racks, benches, varieties of different machines, numerous dumbbells, barbells, speciality bars, a deadlift platform, and a SSB. There are also some strongman equipment. If your focus is to build strength and pack on some muscles, this is definitely the place to go to. I would definitely come here again if I was in the area.
