Georgia Strength Compound — Local services in Smyrna

I’ve been coming to the gym since June 2023. Had a prior interest in powerlifting before coming. My previous trainer was fabulous and was going to begin training me in powerlifting. Then I was in a pretty bad car accident in March 2023. I share this because prior to June 2023 all things shifted including work schedule. I had just noticed in June the gym, Georgia Strength Compound, while heading to a grocery store to shop. Inquired about what was offered. Directed to speak to Steve. Steve explained about the gym and his training method. Steve became my coach. Both the gym and coach has been beneficial, friendly, open, and available. I have seen progress since starting my journey in June including learning patience, gentleness and consistency. My programming with Coach Steve has created a confidence and flexibility experienced within my body and cultivating my vision of health. The lines of communication is nurtured with consistent checkins and dialogue. The gym itself is clean and where it can be accessed beyond my coaching sessions during the week. There is plenty of equipment. In observation, it’s a joy to be around all walks of life and cultures. While I am in school becoming a Reverend of Spiritual Consciousness for the 4 levels of being/healing (mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical), Coach Steve and his place of business has become my component of healing on my journey. For me, it’s not just a place to address the physical but my very own totality of Self. I have found being led by clear intention, I fulfill and care for a present me and loved-on me. Thank You Georgia Strength Compound for being apart of my regimen where at one point I was afraid and would honestly give up this aspect of myself that sought my attention.

Okay, brace yourself for this lifting legend of a gym! The owner? Think of them as the Dumbledore of lifting—seriously knowledgeable, especially in the realm of powerlifting. Now, this place isn't just any gym; it's a muscle haven equipped with everything a lifter's heart desires.

Picture this: racks on racks of equipment catering to every lifting whim imaginable. Need a specialty bar? They've got it. Dreaming of dominating squats with a monolith? Check. Benches? Oh, they've got more than a royal banquet has courses! You won't be fighting for space here; it's a lifting labyrinth with room to spread those wingspan-like lats.

And hey, if you're a serious competitor, get this: kilo plates as far as the eye can see! It's like lifting in a gold mine, only better. Oh, and chalk? They're not stingy with the white gold—bowls of it scattered like treasure chests throughout the gym.

But wait, there's more! Ever needed a mid-lift selfie? Fear not, for they've got tripods stationed strategically for that perfect lift-and-smile moment. And for that extra oomph when the weights feel heavier than Thor's hammer? Ammonia's your new best lifting buddy.

Now, I'll be honest, it's a bit of a haul—an hour's drive for me—but let me tell you, the pilgrimage is absolutely worth it, especially on those glorious weekends when all you crave is the euphoria of a top-notch lift. This place? It's not just a gym; it's a...

Making the decision to join this gym and work with Steve has been one of the best I’ve made in a long time. I was looking for a trainer who would actually listen to me, take into account my concerns and physical challenges, and still push me while still holding space for those challenges. I was so happy to have found Steve, who is more than willing and able to do all those things. The strength gains I’ve seen in just the span of a couple months working with Steve are more than I’ve seen in myself in over 15 years. The gym is clean and comfortable - everyone’s friendly but not in your business. As a woman, it can be a challenge to find a gym without the creeps; but that’s what’s been created at Georgia Strength Compound....
