“Best gym I’ve been to in Tampa/Clearwater. The gym itself has everything you need but the people there is what makes it the best gym I’ve ever been at.”

“If you’re looking to build strength and better yourself across the board, this is where you need to be. Equipment wise, Gorilla Bench has absolutely everything you need. The staff is full of seasoned lifters who know what they are talking about. I’ve never been to a more welcoming gym before. You’ll find that there is a specific mindset and common goal at Gorilla Bench and that is to leave there a better version of yourself than when you came in. The staff & members are all there every day to get better and push everyone else around them to do the same. Gorilla Bench is not just a training facility, it’s a community, and it won’t take long to see that it’s a community that you never knew you needed. Whether you are an experienced lifter or have never stepped foot in a gym, this is the place for you”

“To say this is the best gym I’ve ever been to or seen would be an understatement.
I could write a paragraph alone on the extensive and diverse equipment.
However, the environment of people there, is what really makes it amazing. Full of people who are super knowledgeable but humble and incredibly selfless.
The best place to get strong and have a community at that same time.”

“It's the absolutely best gym I've been to. I have been working out my whole life at many different gyms, and never have I worked out at a place like this. They have the most professional and experienced people I've ever met.”

“Awesome gym. I have been a member for 8 months now and this is my favorite gym I have ever belonged to. Everybody cheers everybody on in this gym. I workout with coach Javi three times a week. Really great coach. He has worked out a lot of my imbances by studying my lifting technique. I am an injury prone athlete but feel I will be removing that title as I continue to work with Javi. He shows me how to lift for my body to prevent me from hurting myself doing conventional lifts all while making incredible gains.”

“This is THE PLACE to be if you like strength sports. The members are a tight, welcoming community unlike any gym.”
