Best powerlifting / strongman gym in the Raleigh Durham area.

Fantastic powerlifting gym. Love that it's 24 hours. I dropped by while in town for a conference. Would love to try more equipment, but didn't want to hurt my back trying without having proper training. No cardio equipment, all weight training.

Great gym for powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, and strongman! Basically no machines, but it makes up for it in terms of bars, implements, and racks. James and the members do a great job making a supportive community of competitors and people who just want to get strong.
Spider Strength Gym is an unstaffed, 24 hour gym. Please schedule an appointment as we're generally unstaffed.
Spider Strength Gym offers a downtown facility and community for strength athletes. While most of our members are powerlifters, strongmen or olympic lifters, we don't consider ourselves limited to any particular strength sport. With 9' power racks, competition benches, deadlift platforms, a monolift, weightlifting platforms, a runway for moving events, and a wide assortment of strongman equipment, we pack a huge assortment of equipment into a relatively small building. It helps that it's bigger on the inside.
