This information was verified and fact checked.

Fantastic experience: To say Kenmore Barbell and Fitness is a good gym is an understatement. The staff and environment are like family. Upon taking your first steps in, you’re greeted by one of the most real individuals I’ve had the pleasure to meet: Vin (gym owner) They maintain quality, sanity, and care for each and every member in the gym. If you’re a powerlifter/weightlifter in the Buffalo area, look no further. Kenmore Barbell is and will always be my go-to area to train with competition specific equipment.

Fantastic experience: A phenomenal no frills gym! A great environment to learn to learn and train Olympic lifting, powerlifting, and strongman type lifts.

Fantastic experience: If you are an experienced lifter and think there should be more chalk in a gym than hair gel and makeup this place might be right for you. Powerlifters and Olympic lifters combine to make culture that by default makes you stronger. The antithesis of planet fitness.

Fantastic experience: This is a great facility and gym - if you are looking for a no-nonsense approach to getting in shape, getting stronger, or whatever athletic goals have, I cannot recommend Kenmore Barbell enough. Vin, the owner is also tops.
