Best equipment, amazing coaches and family-like atmosphere makes Industrial Strength Gym easily the best gym in Portland. Go here for Strength & Conditioning, Olympic weightlifting, Kettlebell, personal training, Kickboxing, BJJ - they have it all!
I can't recommend Industrial Strength enough, and do often. I encourage you to check it out.
Excellent Equipment: I feel spoiled by the quality and quantity of equipment at Industrial Strength. Everything is orderly and easy to find. The gym, bathrooms and shower are clean and all the little details accounted for (extra hair ties in the bathrooms).
Industrial Strength Gym is the best gym in Portland. The owners, Mira and Tony, are top of their craft -- offering individual training and classes. The classes have a team-like approach to them that I have never experienced before in a gym -- an amazing environment in which to train. And, my individual training with Mira has been incredible -- all of friends have seen a difference in me in a few short months.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Knowledgeable Trainers: Form and safety are emphasized. Explanations are clear and questions encouraged. Small classes means they know me well enough to make sure I am being challenged while avoiding injury. I have gotten measurably stronger since I joined Industrial Strength and I credit it to the excellent training team.
Culture and Community: I love that during class, everyone cheers for each other. There's a healthy sense of competition, but that is never overshadowed by the shared desire to see your teammates get better. And new members are welcomed with the same enthusiasm.
Safety and good form are emphasized above all else. The coaches are careful to watch everyone in class to make sure they are executing the lifts correctly and they are able to provide helpful feedback for novices and experienced lifters alike. Learning how to properly squat, deadlift, bench press and military press has improved my life immensely. Like most worthwhile things in life, getting stronger takes time, patience, and effort. It definitely won’t happen overnight, but I can say without a doubt that I’m stronger than I’ve ever been and I feel better than I have in years.
Finally, one of my favorite things about the gym is the atmosphere. I’ve made some good friends at IS and it feels like a second family. From my experience, big egos and bad attitudes simply don’t exist here. All of the coaches and other members are positive, supportive, and always ready to cheer you on when things get tough.
I started at Industrial Strength a little over a year ago as a very unfit 30 something with no knowledge of strength training. I was depressed, had no energy and generally felt pretty lousy most of the time. I knew I needed to make a change so I set up a time to check the gym out and was immediately impressed by the facility and the owners (Mira and Tony). The gym is exceptionally clean, organized and outfitted with top-of-the-line equipment. Tony, Mira and the other two coaches (Arryn and Adam) are knowledgeable, down to earth and genuinely interested in making you stronger. I’ve learned a great deal since I started and continue to learn something new pretty much every time I’m there. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that I look forward to and enjoy each and every class.
I love this gym. Here's why:
I've started doing jiu jitsu here with zero experience and the instructors have been awesome. This gym has a very inviting and friendly atmosphere.
