The best gym in Broward if you are serious about strength and conditioning. Tons of equipment, space, and an owner who is extremely kind, respectful, and knowledgeable about how to make progress regarding your fitness / strength goals.

During a recent visit, Margate provided an amazing environment and facility to get some strongman training in. Members were all very helpful and friendly (and strong). Great environment for serious strength athletes visiting the area.

Great place to just come and lift some heavy weights! Old school bodybuilding/Powerlifting vibes which I always love. In Florida on vacation and was looking for a place to get a quick lift in, Ryan (the owner) made it very easy for me with his great hospitality. Totally recommend!

Not your typical gym! A place where you become family, where the gym will stop their workout and cheer you on during a lift. The owner Ryan will motivate you and get you ready to hit your goals. If your goal is to compete in powerlifting or strongman the look no further!! Pet friendly!

Margate Barbell is a hidden gem. If you’ve never been, you’re truly missing out on an incredible experience. The owner Ryan and his staff, go above and beyond to make EVERYONE feel both welcome and capable of achieving their goals. This gym is like no other; the members are friendly and supportive of one another. It’s like you’re joining a family, not just a gym.

My Strength Home since 2018. I've trained here for dozens of strongman shows, a highland games, and my upcoming first PL meet. Ryan, the owner, is the most generous and humble person, and Coach Vinny P (my Strongman and Powerlifting coach) is a hilarious genius. Anyone interested in joining a community of strong, kind people should stop by Margate Barbell.

Best neighborhood gym around. Friendly environment, full of supportive people who are serious about fitness (and never judgmental). Ryan, the owner, and the coaches are super knowledgeable and helpful and care about everyone who steps through the door. The gym itself has everything you need (plus some) to reach your fitness goals.

Sweet little spot! Everything powerlifting and strongman in a hardcore space, tons of different bars and equipment. This is not your commercial gym if you’re looking for that. Looking forward to training here again next time I’m in the area!

This is a private 24 hr gym that specialized is making you strong. Everyone who trains there is kind and respectful of each other's time and space. Strong people train there, record board speaks for itself. Hardcore training for beginners up to national athletes. The gym is well kept with multiple power racks, lifting platforms and strongman equipment/stones.LGBTQ+ friendly environment, black owned business. Community kept.
