Fantastic experience: I highly recommend the Resistance Gym to anyone interested in strength training, from absolute beginners to competitive lifters. It has awesome values of inclusivity and accessibility which it actually delivers on. The space (with no mirrors) is a refreshing break from toxic fitness culture. Mandy (the owner) is extremely knowledgable about lifting technique and proper form, including expertise in working with larger bodies and folks with accessibility needs, which is so rare to find in a trainer. She showed me ways to strengthen my injured knees that didn't cause them to flare up, when multiple physical therapists and trainers were no help. It blew my mind! She also had tools and options for me to lift weights safely with my post-surgery hand. I didn't even know I could lift weights without using my hand! The other cool thing about this gym is that there's no assumption that accessible equals easy or boring. With the right form and equipment I was able to lift a lot more weight than I thought, and left feeling strong & empowered. There's also an awesome community and fun events. The only downfall is that I don't live closer!

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym in November 2021. It has been a wonderful, supporting, chill, and welcoming space for me to get stronger. The owner Mandy is super chill and easy to talk to. They have great specialty powerlifting bars and strongman equipment to play with. Come join us and work on your lifts. First class is free!

Fantastic experience: You can book a class online, which is perfect for my introvert self. I was still a bit nervous - power lifting is scary, right? But no, not at all. The Resistance is a very inclusive gym, and the classes cater for all sorts of people and bodies, from beginners to people who want to compete.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! After having my first kid in February, I had been looking for a space to workout, preferably in group classes. I stumbled upon this wonderful place and it has been great so far. Mandy has created a body positive, LGBTQ friendly workout space and leads our classes with humor, compassion, and expertise. She has more than accommodated my different physical abilities as I heal from a c-section and work on getting my stamina back up. The equipment is all new and I love the group class atmosphere and workouts. I'm so thankful this is nearby!

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I have ever belonged to. There is such an amazing sense of community and safety to be whatever size you are or do whatever your body can do. Mandy is a trauma informed coach that meets you where you are at, is highly knowledgeable, supportive, and motivating. I never knew weight lifting could be fun!

Fantastic experience: This gym is more than a gym. This is a vibrant and inclusive community of people that have seen a need in our community and have gone above and beyond to fill it. Most gyms consider themselves a "transformation center" focusing of being thin and buff at any cost. This gym to me, has been a "transformation center" in a completely different way. I'm on the way to healing my relationships with fitness, food, and my body; This place has been instrumental in that journey. I am so greatful. *Plus they have an amazing book club*

Fantastic experience: The community at The Resistance Gym are the kind of people that you want to lift with, the kind of people who want to get strong and want to enjoy themselves while they do it. You can tell their intentions is to build both community and high performance athletes. As fellow gym owners and strength athletes, I'm so excited to see them grow into their new space and all the PRs on the way. Insert flame emoji

Fantastic experience: Mandy is an awesome owner! They have great equipment and a family vibe! I love working out at the Resistance. No Judgement zone but you can deadlift as heavy as you want!

Hillary Bowers 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: If your looking for a gym that’s all inclusive, welcoming, and supportive then Resistance is for you! This gym is amazing! If you like to work out alone, in groups, go fast, go slow, go heavy or whatever; they have a wide variety of options. All the members are hella welcoming! Everyone is so supportive and wants everyone to succeed in whatever their goals for movement are. They have classes for lifting, book studies to learn about body positively and what it means to be anti diet, they have youth classes, adaptive equipment for people with injuries or disabilities, and fun events like pool parties wear big girls can feel empowered to wear bikinis! I can’t say enough about how wonderful the resistance is! This place helped me to feel more confident and know that I’m good enough no matter the size of abilities of my body!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of The Resistance for a few months now and let me tell you how ridiculously amazing it is. Mandy, the owner, is a literal gem. She is kind, welcoming, and encouraging which is not super common in most gym spaces. The members are equally amazing, we cheer each other on and celebrate victories like old friends even if we just met that day. I love being part of a space that is so inclusive and supportive. You'll meet all different types of people, body sizes, abilities, The Resistance has it all. The diversity is what makes The Resistance such a special space. Come join us, we also have pop tarts. :)

Fantastic experience: I love this space! It’s a great community with so much love and support. It’s truly a safe place where you can explore new movements for individuals who are experienced in strength training or first timers in general. Whether that be powerlifting, strongman, and much more. You come as you are. You are welcomed as you are.
