Strong Tower Fitness was started in 2016 with the mission to help people and improve the community. We work to help every person who comes through our doors to become the best they can be. We believe that there is more to our gym than just working out-- our members and culture promote a positive and encouraging atmosphere that is addictive! New members are surrounded by people who are trying to improve themselves and are excited to see a new face. We consider our members to be family. It doesn’t matter what your cardiovascular endurance is, how much you weigh, or how old you are-- if you are looking to improve yourself and are willing to put the work in, this is the place for you!

Greg is the owner of Strong Tower Fitness. He was first introduced to functional fitness in 2015 and found it difficult to stay motivated by a routine lifting regiment. He started Strong Tower Fitness in 2016 to bring functional fitness and a positive family environment to the Parkersburg area. He enjoys helping others reach their strength and nutrition goals and providing a service that goes beyond working out. He believes that the members and coaches at Strong Tower Fitness drive an addicting atmosphere that radiates positivity, motivation, and constant self-improvement. The culture here is truly changing lives one rep at a time.

Will started doing Function Fitness at STF in 2017. He had played many different sports before that, but he enjoyed baseball and wrestling the most. He struggled to find something that gave him the competitive feeling he had in sports until he found STF. He describes the classes as a perfect cross between cardio and lifting weights. He views STF as more than a gym, but a big family with an addictive atmosphere. He enjoys seeing members getting stronger and improving. He is excited to see what the future holds and looks forward to helping new and current members alike.

. I'm going to Strong Tower Fitness for five days straight. I'm sore all over, and earlier in the week, even basic tasks were painful because of my muscles. Even though it's tough, I love it. I've been working on losing 85 pounds for the past two years, and I was stuck. Nothing I was doing was making a difference. But the combination of different workouts with a knowledgeable trainer has pushed me to new areas of fitness, where I can see results. The trainer isn't just telling us what to do--he lives this lifestyle. He's encouraging without being fake, and it seems like he really cares about his clients' fitness goals. It's not easy, but nothing worth doing is. I haven't been to a single day where I haven't heard someone praising God or giving him glory in their lives. I'm excited to see where this takes me, both physically and spiritually.

I'm so grateful for this gym and everything it stands for. It's amazing that the trainers and owners here help my boys grow closer to God. Tyler said that when he was struggling on the rope and his body was in so much pain, he thought about how Jesus must have felt hanging on the cross for him. That's what gave him the strength to keep going. Thank you for creating a space that feels like it's not even part of this world. I pray that God blesses you all!

I've been looking to improve my physical fitness and health for a long time now. It's easy enough to say "I need to do this," but it's a whole different story when it comes to actually doing it. The staff at Strong Tower Fitness are knowledgeable and committed to helping you reach your goals. Plus, they have a community of mutually supportive members. You can't undo 35 years of neglect and indifference overnight, but I have no doubt whatsoever that I will achieve my health and fitness goals with the help of the people at Strong Tower Fitness. If you're in the market for a good gym, Strong Tower Fitness is definitely the place to be.

I would like to thank Tate and Greg at Strong Tower Fitness for their support. The box is clean, organized, and has great equipment. It's a great place to CrossFit in the Parkersburg area!

I've been going to Strong Tower for a few months and I love it. Tate and Greg have a lot of knowledge to share. It's a very family-like environment with people encouraging and motivating each other. I was worried when I first thought about joining because I was 350 pounds and out of shape, but there are modifications for just about everything to allow you to do what you can. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great environment to improve their fitness level.

This gym is the best gym I have ever been to because it is so motivating. I love hitting the weights and this gym makes me not want to stop.

. I absolutely love this Box! I feel so lucky to have found this place and to have met such amazing people. The environment is really family-oriented and the Box is always extremely clean. Tate is an incredible coach who is always giving great tips and directions. This is truly a special place and I can't thank Tate and Greg enough for all their hard work in making it such an amazing place to workout and meet new friends.

! I love this CrossFit gym! I've only been coming for a short time, but I've already seen great results. I used to be a runner, but CrossFit has challenged me in new ways and helped me to get in better shape than I was before. The workouts are always different so I never get bored, and Tate does a great job of scaling the workouts to make sure they're safe and doable for everyone. Everyone at the gym is so positive and encouraging, and I've made some great new friends. I love that the gym is faith-based and that you always feel blessed and refreshed after working out. Thank you, Tate and Greg, for working so hard to provide such a great place to workout!

This gym is well-organized and clean, with professional and knowledgeable staff. The workouts are exhausting and can be easily modified to suit your fitness level, whether you’re a beginner or have been working out for years.

I have known Tate Linder for a long time, so when I asked him for help developing a lifting routine, he was able to come up with a plan for me right away. I am now on my 8th week following his program, and my bench press has increased by 30lbs. He is not only knowledgeable, but he takes the time to explain things thoroughly and develop a personalized plan for you. I highly recommend asking him for advice!

Our family's Strong Tower is something I've wanted to try for the last 5 or 6 years but haven't been able to. I'm currently in a boot but looking forward to getting started with mobility classes and yoga! Our kids have been participating in the kids class 3X/week for the past two months and have a difficult time waiting from class to class!! Ross is a great coach and very knowledgeable about the sport and coaching kids! Well done Strong Tower!! Thank you so much!!

Happy anniversary, Tate and Greg! It's been an amazing year having you both in our lives and I can't believe how much the kids and I have grown in just a year. I want to thank you for starting Strong Tower Fitness because it has truly been a blessing for us. It's given us all an opportunity to improve ourselves physically, mentally, and spiritually. The environment is wonderful and it's so cool that I have a place to bring my teenagers. Life can be challenging, but this is a great outlet for all of us. There are several things I really like about Strong Tower Fitness: -The individual attention for improving movements -The family atmosphere--no harsh words -The introductions of new members -The accessory workouts! They're a great addition and I need extra to continue to improve. Having set things to do really works well for me. -Being comfortable from the start. I wasn't a 'cross fitter', but you both work with me and my kids to accommodate our skill levels. -Showing the modifications for different exercises -The encouragement during workouts -The different workouts each day -The Bible study So, this Thanksgiving, I was able to run the Turkey Trot--a big accomplishment for me! It may not seem like a lot to some, but for me it was. I never thought I would do that, but you have given me enough confidence to try. I know that what you're both doing is great and you're making a positive impact on people and their well-being. We have a wonderful group of people and that is continuing to expand. I thank you for your efforts to lead us and manage Strong Tower. Keep up the great work! We are truly blessed to have both of you!

I just completed my second workout yesterday and it was quite the challenge. However, Tate and the other members were very encouraging and helped me push through to the end. I couldn't have asked to be a part of a better group. I'm excited to see how much I can improve over time.

Strong Tower Fitness: Opinions

5/5 (22 Opinions)
Brandon Geary 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve spent the last 12 years jumping from gym to gym. I can now say I’ve found a home. Training and competing on a college level, I’ve never lost my “competitiveness”. Though I trained consistently I still felt like something was missing. I needed an extra push! A friend told me Strong Tower offers three free sessions, so I gave it a try. I was instantly hooked! The coaches, equipment, and other members are awesome! Don’t let your age, strength, or fitness ability keep you from giving Strong Tower a try. I wish I would have done it years ago! All workouts can be scaled to fit each person’s capabilities. They offer multiple workouts per day and memberships to fit anybody’s busy schedule. The gym atmosphere and programing/workouts were the missing “competitiveness” I desired!

Amanda L Lyons 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had never attempted anything like this before, and I was really scared to enter the gym for the first time. However, the atmosphere was so inviting, and the coaches and members were so kind and supportive. Heather made me feel comfortable and helped me concentrate on why I was there. They were always there to provide assistance as I was learning. It was the first time I felt like I belonged in a gym.

Tiffany Givens-Mummey 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: So I’m not in the best shape for 34. I mean I have a shape, it’s just round. Was very apprehensive about going. So much so I ran out as soon as I stepped inside the door the first time I went. Thankfully I went back. Everyone is very friendly, the staff and other gym members. Pretty sure you’d be very hard pressed to find someone who wasn’t nice. The work outs are great. There’s always someone there to help, ask questions, and the trainers are good at modifying things to your level. There are all kinds of class times. From early in the morning midday and two evening classes. The inside of the building is clean and everything is organized pretty well. Stuff is easy to find. There’s plenty of parking on the back side and it wasn’t hard to find. It is a very family oriented place.

Talor Snyder 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you're searching for a gym that will motivate and support you to stay on track with your fitness goals, Strong Tower Fitness is the perfect place. Everyone there is so friendly and encouraging, no matter what your fitness level is. I've been a member for over 6 months now and I'm so glad I joined because it has enabled me to stick to a regular gym routine. I highly recommend it to anyone who's looking for a gym! 10/10!

Mathew Schlemmer 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: A truly awesome place to get fit! The gym is very family friendly and welcoming. They have numerous classes that fit my busy schedule. My daughter "plays" on the mats and rings while I participate in class. She also enjoys the kids class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. No matter your fitness level you will find success here. The programming offers something for all fitness levels and the coaches are great at helping to modify challenging workouts for beginners. At age 36 I'm in the best shape of my life in large part to Strong Tower Fitness. It isn't an exaggeration to say it has changed my life. I'll never be able to go back to a "normal" gym.

Renee Hinkle 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: From the first class I was hooked! Every trainer is kind and knowledgeable, and all the workouts are intense, yet can be modified to fit your level of fitness. I’m the type of person that needs instructions repeated a few times before I get it! Everyone is so kind and patient, from the trainers to the members. There’s no judgment at STF. Everyone is like family. I don’t think you can find another gym that would let you try three full workouts for free before you join. I highly recommend Strong Tower Fitness.

Fantastic experience: Great place! Check it out!!

Josiah Partin 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Have been to visit a couple times for the free starter classes and to check out the facilities. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Always quick to answer questions and identify what you should work on. Can't wait to have the time to start full time and get the full blast of this awesome training! Now with the new Quick-Fit class that takes 30 minutes it's easier to fit into a busy schedule! I wouldn't even consider any of the other "so-called" gyms in the area. They aren't there to better your life, they are there to provide a facility for you, Strong Tower is here for so much more! With all the standard Crossfit equipment available and certified trainers, my trust and recommendations go to Strong Tower Fitness.

Michael Jones 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: By far the best gym I have ever been a part of. Everyone treats you like family from the first time you walk in. If you want to get in better shape and want to do it with friendly people by your side cheering you on, then Strong Tower Fitness is the place to go.

Blaine Ritchie, Broker-Realtor 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you were looking for a clean gym with knowledgeable trainers this is it. Here you will find motivation from other members and from your own success. Tate and Nicole both are very knowledgeable and teach you the Safe way to do CrossFit. When I leave here I am exhausted and ready to come back for more

Fantastic experience: Great place to go if you're looking for a great environment. Tate and Greg are awesome guys who want nothing more than to see everyone be successful in what they want to achieve. There is a very strong family environment that makes people feel welcome and motivated. If you're worried about not being able to do some of the moves, stop in and see how things can be modified for your fitness level. I would highly recommend Stong Tower Fitness to anyone.

Rob Kerns 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I'm writing to recommend Strong Tower Fitness. After 35 years of physical indifference and neglect, I have begun the painful journey to fitness and better physical health. It would be exponentially more difficult for me, were it not for the staff and facilities at Strong Tower Fitness. The team is all about helping you achieve your goals in a positive environment, centered around the ideal of a helpful community or family. The staff is knowledgeable and well-versed in their chosen fields, and I have zero difficulty trusting them to help me succeed. If you're looking for a good gym with great people, Strong Tower Fitness is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good stuff about this Box. Truly blessed to have found this place and to have met the wonderful people there. Great family environment. Extremely clean. Wonderful atmosphere. Tate is a very knowledgeable coach with great coaching tips and directions. It really is a special place. Thank you Tate and Greg for being so cool and having a great place to come workout and meet new friends. You should both be very proud of your hard work you have done and continue to do to create such a great Box.

Mustang Sally 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this place and the gains I've made in such a short time. I'm a runner and new to CrossFit. I was intimidated at first, but Tate does a great job at scaling the workouts and keeping it safe and doable. I love that the workouts are always different, never boring and has challenged me physically in a way that I haven't been before. Everyone is so positive and encouraging, and I've made some really great new friends. The atmosphere is so welcoming and I love that it's a faith based place, you walk away feeling blessed and refreshed. Thank you Tate and Greg for working so hard and providing such a cool and clean place to come in and get a great workout. -Misty Roberts

Jolene Taylor 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: STF is a box that everyday you are welcomed by coaches/ friends that truly care about you and your fitness.Great coaching and thanks to Tate and Brewster whom are always supportive and encouraging and with their knowledge I have received valuable pointers and instruction for form, technique and much more. They have created a facility where you feel really connected and is motivating and fun. STF has a atmosphere that makes this box feel like a giant family that you can just hang out with after a WOD. They will push you to do your best, but rein you in when you need it. This box is amazing and I have nothing but good things to say!! You feel at home every single time you walk through the door. The owners work to ensure that we have the best equipment and a awesome place to train whether you’re looking to start your journey to better your fitness or train for your next competition.
