Great strength and conditioning gym. Everyone there was super welcoming and made me feel right at home. Got some great tips from Omar on new exercises, programming, and form. Wish I lived closer and could join! Highly recommend for both out of town visitors as well as locals if you want a top notch gym that will push you to your limits but also respect you as an individual.

Awesome facility! I was able to come in and train solo while Coach Omar was training his clients. He’s got all the bars and equipment you could want in a strength and conditioning gym. Looking forward to coming back next time I’m in town. Thanks for having me!

Coach Omar really gets to know your personality and your strengths and limitations. He works with you to push them to meet your own fitness goals, and more importantly, is flexible to meet at the time that works best for you. He offers a few introductory classes to see if you like his style before joining. Whether its a group class or one on one, its the same price and well worth it due to the coaching and attention to detail he brings to each workout. Everyday he has a new workout for tailored to work different muscles, allowing you to keep up your fitness daily. If you're looking to build your balance, core strength and overall fitness this is the place for you.

What a life changer this gym was for me and my wife! Omar, the owner/trainer/coach, creates an atmosphere that is open, fun, and approachable, while simultaneously serious, demanding, and challenging. His workouts are palatable to a wide variety of skills/abilities and he takes the time to customize well-thought-out personalized excercises when requested. If you're looking for an amazing workout community with top-shelf workouts in a gym environment that will make you feel at home, this is the place for you! Take the leap - you'll be glad you did!

I was a member of WeStrong in Jersey City for almost 10 years. The workouts, for all levels, could be challenging but also gratifying to see how stronger i was becoming and faster I could move through them over time. Working out with others made it more fun for me and I could feed off of their energy which pushed me to want to lift heavier and improve my endurance. Coach Omar is always there to teach you or correct you for proper posture, push you, encourage you or modify a workout if needed. He is the best! I would recommend this place to anyone looking to challenge itself and improve on strength, flexibility, endurance or frankly just looking for good workouts. You want to give this place a chance. It is a friendly place to workout out and make friends along the way.

High quality, diverse group classes. Equipments always in excellent condition. Omar, a man with many hats, (Owner, Trainer, Mentor, Nutritionist \u0026 Friend) is very dedicated to his clients and goes above and beyond to help with your specific fitness needs and goals. He is very creative with his workouts and always provides new exercises to keep your body guessing. He also is very wise about healthy ways to change your diet to help with the process. After some time, the gym and it’s members feels like home and a family. In other words best gym and Omar is the man!!! #WeStrongAlways

WeStrong has been truly life changing for me. Coach O is THE BEST and his program has challenged me in all the best ways. I always look forward to my workout! I appreciate that he doesn’t just let me quit and instead motivates and shows me that I can actually do it. I have gained a lot of strength since I started and love going back each day feeling stronger than I was the day before. The entire WS community is also great and everyone is friendly and supportive. It really doesn’t get any better than WeStrong!

I joined WeStrongJC back in 2014. And like many others have attested to, so much of the energy behind WeStrong is from the passion and dedication from Coach O. I had only planned to stay for a few months to get wedding ready—and 7 years later this is what I learned: 1. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, leave your ego at the door and be ready to work! 2. Coach O will give you the knowledge, tools, proper form and will push you—but it’s up to you to put in the effort. 3. This isn’t a big box gym. Community over everything—We sweat together and We push each other to get that extra rep in. It’s called WeStrong for a reason! 4. If you do it right, this place becomes beyond a gym—it’s becomes a second home. St Pete is lucky to have you O ??

This gym is lit! I’ve been working out at other gyms/resistance classes since 2019 and in just two sessions here at WeStrong I was able to try at least 5 new exercises that I had never done before! Even if you are just starting or years into fitness, Omar gets you out of your comfort zone and whenever you do that, there is guaranteed growth, always. I also love how the sessions switch up and how Omar guides you, checks your form, and encourages you with a calm presence. Overall it is really a top notch environment and I’d highly highly recommend it to anyone of all levels and experience in the area!

WeStrong is a great, supportive local-family owned gym. Omar, the owner and coach, provides planned workouts that accommodate every fitness level and open gym hours in case you prefer to follow your own routine. He will spend time with each individual to ensure they understand how to properly and safely perform every exercise. I’ve learned a lot since I joined and am motivated by the progress I’ve made to date. Don’t hesitate to check them out! I know WeStrong is the one and only gym I will need to achieve my fitness goals.

Coach O creates a one-of-kind community with his clients - a \\\"gym family.\\\" There will be jokes to push through the next PR; Saturday workouts that challenge the team to the max, followed by a BBQ; infants and toddlers entertained so that mom and dad can keep working out. With fun and teamwork always as the backdrop, Coach O will push you to break through challenges that you wouldn't have thought possible. Sure, he'll remind you that you decide how far you go -- but with every personal record, you'll know that Coach O's special brand of motivation and community is an essential piece of your success.

WeStrong Strength and Conditioning is an amazing gym and community. I first joined in 2014 and it not only helped me develop my physical strength, but also my mental strength. I went from being a couch potato to running five half marathons and tripling my strength. When WS moved to St. Pete, FL I had to go check it out and it has grown to be even better! More than a gym, the WS community will always be family - and that’s what really kept me motivated all these years.

Coach O and the WeStrong community taught me foundational skills and confidence to lift weights. I used to admire the outdoor classes and think I would never be able to do that - I'm not an athlete. At WeStrong, I learned compound lifts and so much more. Most importantly, Coach O is an ally, empowering women to lift in a welcoming, safe environment. I loved Coach O's challenging workouts especially the ones (usually, sled pushes/pulls) that made me so nauseous that I couldn't do another round, but then I did it anyway because Coach O and everyone else believed I could. Now, I bring this energy to every lift. WeStrong is truly unique - I always tell people about \\\"my gym in Jersey City.\\\" Thank you Coach O and WeStrong!

This place is unreal. I had seen people working out doing crazy things all the time whenever I walked by so I finally tried it and after 1 class at WeStrong I was hooked. It’s so good I was showing up on my sacred Saturday’s. I was at LA fitness for almost 6 years and I won’t be going back. Such a great experience, Omar’s really good at helping out with your form and always knows when you need a good push.
