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.

I dropped in while on a family vacation. Coordinating a guest pass through email/the website was super convenient! The gym was very well equipped (my one regret was not having time to play with strongman toys). I could tell just by the atmosphere and the couple of regulars who were there that there's a good community here. Thanks for having me!

Spider has some of the best energy and motivating atmosphere I’ve ever seen in a gym! Members are great, and James the owner is always so helpful constantly improving equipment, etc. Best gym in Raleigh hands down!!

Spider Strength Gym is everything I love about strength sports: the owner, James, is kind, helpful, and keeps the gym stocked with new equipment; the gym community is supportive and uplifting; the facility is no frills in the best way possible; and the location is about as convenient as it gets. Whether you're dropping in on your way through town or a local looking to get into powerlifting/strongman/weightlifting, Spider is the place to be.

I came down to Raleigh for a trip with my girlfriend and was looking for a powerlifting gym to train in. I spoke with James on the phone and he was very friendly and accommodating. The gym had everything we needed and more, was well kept, and respected covid protocols. I highly recommend this gym to anyone in the Raleigh area, either residing or traveling!
