I live in Hawaii and travel a lot for work but when I’m in Milwaukee, this is the gym I go to. It’s a smaller gym but they have great equipment especially for power lifters. The people who train there are great as well. All good and positive vibes every time I been there. I also love accessible it is because you can go into the gym by using a code and not having the staff to be there. For someone as busy as me, I just wanna get in and get out.

Everyone is supportive and friendly, but they also mind their own business when it's time to mind your own business. In this gym, I don't have to deal with unwanted attention or advice from the old gym bro crowd. People in this gym are dedicated to the sport and take it seriously, and they take other athletes training alongside them seriously, regardless of gender.
