    Global strongman gym is the best gym I've ever been a member of. Has everything you need. I've been a competitive powerlifter, but this place has changed my perspective and has me challenging myself in strongman competitions. I enjoy what it offers. It's kid and pet friendly. The owner, Han's makes you feel at home and has become like family. You won't regret starting or continuing your fitness journey of any kind at GSG.

    Fantastic gym for serious weight training. 4 squat racks with platforms and 1 bench - the ratio says it all. Every piece of strongman equipment I can think of - Atlas Stones, Yokes, circus dumbells, Thomas dumbell, kegs, hussafel stones, farmers handles, reverse hyper, GHD, every specialty bar I know of etc. etc. The owner keeps a super clean and neat space - easy to workout in. Music is good too, and he even helped me out on some deadlift tips. I might move to Brooklyn just for this gym.

    if you want an old school strength training gym, this is your place, no crossfit trend workouts here, no brightly colored machines, just barbells,plates, and other strongman staples. I call it an adult playground where you can play with everything, and if you're not sure what to do with something ask Hans, the owner. Everybody who works out there is friendly, helpful and supportive, you'll frequently hear an athlete from one side of the gym calling out across the gym to another athlete in encouragement. at $99 a month it can't be beat!

    This gym and the owner, Hans Pirman, changed my life. I wanted to lift weights and get strong - he took me there and more. My starting numbers, January 2016: Body weight: 195 lbs Squat: 135 lbs Bench: 110 lbs Deadlift: 135 lbs I showed up in the huge snowstorm in January, knowing I wanted to change my life. What I didn't expect was that I'd blow all my fitness goals out of the water and make a TON of friends doing it. Hans knows EVERYTHING - nutrition, strongman, bodybuilding, powerlifting, physical therapy, and anything in between. He quickly and accurately identified all my weaknesses, corrected them, and now I can't tell they ever existed. A year ago I had knee surgery, now I'm squatting hundreds of pounds. This gym changed everything for me - if you want to REALLY see results, this is the only place to go. I'll let the numbers speak: November 2016: Body weight: 265 lbs Squat: 350 lbs Bench: 225 lbs Deadlift: 505 lbs Enough said!

    Global Strongman is a fantastic facility with great energy. It's a hardcore gym that is also welcoming to complete beginners. There are nationally ranked strongman competitors alongside people who just want to feel stronger. Hans, is a great coach and person, he is very giving of his time and expertise.

    I've known Hans for God knows how long. Great place, friendly dude, just very far from my house, but it's worth it for what you get.
