Garden State Barbell

Fantastic experience: Great gym and atmosphere. Has all the equipment one needs for powerlifting/bodybuilding/crossfit training. Open 24/7 and conveniently located. Definitely recommend checking it out!

Fantastic experience: Tried out a few gyms in the area once I moved near by. By far my favorite gym here especially for anyone who competes or enjoys strongman and powerlifting. The owner has always been very awesome and welcoming since I came in.

Positive experience: its a great gym. but, last time i was there, the mono-lift squat rack was leaking hydraulic fluid and the bathrooms were leaking or backed up. the bathroom thing isn't the owners fault and they were fixing it immediately so i wont let that affect my rating. but its incredibly difficult to get ahold of the owner, and actually get a membership. there are no employees, so i couldnt set up a membership or buy merchandise at the gym either. every time ive gone to this gym all the fellow members were incredibly kind/nice to me. theres a great community here. the equipment is all very good. but they lack some equipment that i personally prefer to train back like a seated plate row or seated high row. dumbells are excellent, its old school ronnie coleman style. a downside is that theres no mirrors in this gym, but thats not significant. i really like how they have a tablet with spotify on it that allows you to play a song of your choice on the gym speakers.this gym is fully loaded with eleiko calibrated KG plates and regular pound plates. they have chalk bowls as well. i understand the owner has a tough time managing this gym because he works a full time job as well. so i have a lot of respect for this guy. hes doing his best.

Fantastic experience: Great old school gym with the right amount of updated equipment. Glad I joined and wished I did so sooner.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a place where you get welcomed, support and motivation this is definitely the place to go! Absolutely love this place! Feels like having a gym in your home but better! Don’t think twice! Do it!

Fantastic experience: Great gym full of great people! Have lots of equipment and whatever they don’t have you can easily substitute. It’s usually never crowded but if there is people in there, everyone is friendly and helpful. Definitely should check this place out.

Fantastic experience: Garden State Barbell is a great gym. For anyone from beginner to experienced lifters and competitors, if you have a genuine passion to be there you'll fit in great. The atmosphere is great, Evan has worked to bring in additional equipment and add to what was there. Evan takes pride in the business as an owner, but also in communication with the people who train there. Evan makes a point to get to know your name and talk with you. It's a great environment to train, 98% of the people who are there are there to better themselves and alot of the drama you see at mainstreams doesn't exist. GSB is a great place to train and lift, i highly recommended it. They also offer first responder and military discounts. P.S. the 24hr availability is the best part, especially post covid as nothing is open late anymore for us night shifters. Come in and experience the thrill of training in a powerhouse gym, without the powerhouse egos!

Fantastic experience: 5 Stars to literally thee best gym in the Gloucester County area (Westville NJ). Powerlifting gym and for regular weight lifters like myself with 24 hour access. Feels like your own personal gym. 2 full garage doors that open in the front and back of gym to give an open air feeling. 200lb dumbbells and all the weight that your heart desires. Hands down the best gym, Garden State BarBell.

Fantastic experience: Was a memeber of this gym for over a year snd hands down my favorite gym. Love the equipment and atmosphere. Feels like being part of a family when I was there. The owner Evan I would consider one of my good friends was always good to me. Even when I moved away and had a baby he still keeps in touch every week to check up and see how everything is going. Best gym and best owner hands down

Fantastic experience: This gym has a close knit and family vibe that I like! The new owner Evan has done great things to make improvements in the gym and his hard work shows! I also love the fact that I can see what’s going on weekly through the Instagram page and now I can order shirts online! Keep up the good work GSB team!

Fantastic experience: Best place to lift. Environment that breeds dogs. Great gym

Fantastic experience: I’ve done day passes at this gym a few times and recently joined. It’s an amazing atmosphere where everyone wants to help you get stronger. Top notch bars, racks , and accessories for everything from body building to string man. The best kept secret in south Jersey.

Fantastic experience: Great gym even better people.

Positive experience: Bill T said come here for “real gains”, it’s just like another gym just bit bigger and more stuff, what the does “real gains” even mean Bill T?

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality Absolutely love this gym and don't know what I'd do without it. Great powerlifting environment with all the equipment you need to get stronger. Love when the bay doors are open.

Fantastic experience: Been a regular at this gym for 3+ years. There’s no other place in the area like GSB. Incredible atmosphere for powerlifting. New management continues to make improvements and bring in new equipment

Fantastic experience: Great program to lose weight. I sat through the presentation. Very informative. Unfortunately I am recovering from major surgery that has me sidelined for the moment.

Fantastic experience: Great gym

Fantastic experience: I’m going to stop by GSB on all of my future visits to the area. It’s a great powerlifting gym. They have ample equipment and everything is top of the line. I noticed 2 traditional power racks, a belt squat machine, a nice looking monolift, a deadlift platform, and a handful of benches. They also have great barbells by Rogue and Buddy Capps and all of the accessories that you’d ever need. Long story short, it’s definitely worth checking out.

Positive experience: great old school gym, great people,

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in NJ and definitely the best in the area. Tons of specialty bars, strongman gear, and other pieces of equipment you won't find in a commercial gym like sleds, tires, a reverse hyper, GHR, and more. Owner is extremely friendly and seems very passionate about strength training. If you are in the Philadelphia/South Jersey area I would definitely recommend checking it out.

Fantastic experience: Outstanding place to train, just love the raw atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Great place for people who are serious about exercising and lifting

Fantastic experience: Forget the big-box gyms that try to impress you with a million and one worthless treadmills, this gym is the real deal. There are some seriously strong men and women that train here and everyone is friendly. The gym isn't huge but I've never had any issues with sharing equipment. They have a wide variety of barbells which is really nice, along with power cages, a monolift, a deadlift platform, and tons of dumbells. It's everything you need if you're a serious weightlifter, powerlifter, body builder, or crossfitter.

Fantastic experience: This is my second home love it

Fantastic experience: Amazing atmosphere, tons of equipment, helpful and insightful staff, and home to many elite athletes makes Garden State Barbell the best gym I have ever been in. If anybody wants to take their training to the next level, or start your training the right way, go to GSB.
