Best gym in Chicago. I train Olympic weightlifting and this gym has everything I need. I love the old school atmosphere and the people at the gym are so friendly! No other gym can beat the price of this gym too.

You can smell the blood and guts from up stairs. This is a gym for a hardcore lifting man. You can tell many athletes have trained for various athletics there and trained well. The atmosphere can not by even touched in this classic Chicago gym.

Friendly and responsive staff, clean, great equipment. Hardly crowded and no need to wait in line for machines. Have used the gym for one year and just renewed for another

Classic example of a good gym!! It’s not fancy but it’s ALL the basics plus much more. The classic posters on the walls are a very inspirational touch. The staff is really informative and helpful. The people at this gym are respectful and kind. This is a 80s vibes gym ( I guess) only iron and fans without TVs to distract you

If you're serious about getting stronger this is definitely a great place to be, and a great place to get started. Staff is always friendly and helpful, and the price is VERY affordable. Better than another powerlifting gym I tried in the area, far less PED heads drawing attention to themselves, using several pieces of equipment at once, generally making a scene, and ruining your day. No cliques, no toxicity, no one trying to sell you BS with their promo code. Just people getting in and getting work done. Plus, they have every imaginable piece of equipment you could ever need. This is great for me because I have some chronic injuries, so it makes exercise substitutions easy. Highly recommend this gym!

Hang your card on the board and head down the stairs to the coolest basement in the city. While the radio blasts everything from Aerosmith to Blink-182, load up your bar, chalk up your hands and give ‘er gas.This place is the real deal, with mass monsters and beginners alike. You feel more or less like you’re part of a community of quietly determined people focused on getting strong. Other members are generally extremely courteous, will help if asked and not afraid to give a quiet but authoritative correction if you’re really doing something wrong. The pictures from old bodybuilding magazines pasted to the walls really make the atmosphere too. I like this gym!

No nonsense, straightforward gym. There is a lot of equipment for training every part of your body. The atmosphere is cool, the staff is great, and the owner, Dennis, is AWESOME!!! He is professional and highly knowledgeable.
