Lifted Gym is the Best Gym Around!

I’ve been training with Tim, the owner of Lifted Gym, for 15 years, and I can confidently say there is no better place to lift. Tim is an incredible Olympic weightlifting coach who excels at programming workouts tailored to every skill and fitness level. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced athlete, he ensures you progress safely and effectively.

The gym itself is an amazing space—spacious, well-equipped, and designed for real training. With its four large roll-up doors and southern exposure, you get the best of both worlds: warmth and sunlight on a nice day or a sealed-in, focused training environment when it’s cold.

But what truly makes Lifted Gym special is the community. The people here are welcoming, supportive, and dedicated to their fitness goals. It’s a place where you’ll find encouragement, motivation, and even some fun—especially during the Halloween and Christmas parties, which are always a blast.

If you’re looking for top-notch coaching, a fantastic facility, and a great group of people, Lifted Gym is the...

I’ve been lucky enough to workout here for the last year, and to personally witness the development of the gym, from the ground up. I’d recommend Lifted to anyone, no matter what fitness level you’re at, or want to be at. Lifted will get you there! Lots of classes to choose from, morning or evening, experienced coaches, tons of space and equipment, new clean bathrooms and showers, filtered water, and a lounge area. You’ll be encouraged to do your best and to push yourself, but never to do anything unsafe for your body, and the atmosphere is fun, but professional. There are many different tracks to pick from, and all are coached as equally important. Everyone is there to get Lifted, no one is left behind. Come for the workouts, stay for the friendships and fun social activities, they also have the best potlucks! Look for the online Lifted merchandise...

FREE WEEKEND group workouts! Been going for several months now. The programs are easy to follow, the coaches are amazing and the comradery among the gym members is spectacular. There are always special events going on and special workouts for holidays. The workouts are great for bringing a friend who is on the fence about their fitness. The coaches explain everything very well and scaled workouts and alternative movements are always encouraged to maintain safety and function if you are still working up to it. The environment is fun and clean. Highly recommend going in to talk to a coach on staff if you'd like to try a week for free and come see what goes on.
