Gym

👍👍 What an awesome gym. I recently signed up and really liked how easy the whole signing up process was. Straight forward no frills. It's a great price and its month to month. No contract. What I like about this gym compared to others is should you unfortunately need to cancel, they make it real simple... People often mention friendly,

    What an awesome gym. I recently signed up and really liked how easy the whole signing up process was. Straight forward no frills. It's a great price and its month to month. No contract. What I like about this gym compared to others is should you unfortunately need to cancel, they make it real simple, no hassle. I'm not cancelling but stuff like that makes it more attractive, should something happen down the road I don't have to worry about certified letters or hassling with management or worrying about getting charged extra. This gym has everything you need and then some to get a quality workout in. Crossfit, Strongman, powerlifting, you name it. The only thing that I'm upset about is that I didn't discover this place sooner. 2020 sucked, so If you really want to make your 2021 rock and get started on the right foot, you gotta check this place out.

    Very nice and relaxed atmosphere for a gym, everyone was nice and relatively helpful. There's only one changing room per gender, and little room to store your things while you workout, but it's not often too busy, and didn't peak out hardly at all in January. The gym is very weight lifting focused I wouldn't recommend for a lot of cardio.

    Stopped in while traveling. Had everything I needed as a powerlifter. Staff and patrons were friendly. Good all around gym for serious strength athletes. SO to fellow patron Keith who made me feel welcome.

    This is easily one of the best gyms in the middle of the country. I stop in every time I come to Omaha for business. Anything you need for powerlifting, bodybuilding, Olympic lifting, or general fitness. Clearly influenced by Westside Barbell but without the intimidating atmosphere. Easy to find a spotter or parking spot and never overcrowded. Highly recommended.

    Long story short I have been to over 15 countries and this is easily one of the best gyms in the world. Highlights - 5+ deadlift platforms -4+ bench options - Multiple power racks - deadlift bars - monolift - atlas stones - keg - log bar - chains - Almost every bar - reverse hyper Staff is extremely friendly. Almost all members are very friendly as well. The gym is perfect for everyone from Strongman to CrossFiters to novice athletes.

    Out of all the gyms I've been to and researched, this one takes the cake and smashes it! Omaha Barbell is full of friendly, knowledgeable staff and members that openly welcome new people in order to guide them on a road of healthiness. If you are looking for a friendly gym full of serious people, and filled with the best lifting equipment--look no further!

    If you want a gym, a real gym with real equipment and an environment of supportive lifters to encourage you there's no better place.

😠 2nd edit: different day same genesis. Always at least 1 bandaid laying by the pool, 2 today. It's nice in the beginning until you go everyday and start to realize how terrible it is.

😠 This place keeps trying to bully me into paying more money. I was told I was grandfathered in to the price I am paying right now by many other staff members. But they are harassing me about a 5 dollar co-pay now if I don’t upgrade my membership and pay 85 dollars a month because this is a “premium g...

😠 I have been a member at this location for 2 months now. The facility is nice and new, and there is lots of equipment. It’s a great deal for the price. I sadly had an uncomfortable encounter with an employee at night while I was working out. I reported it to a manager, but no one reached out to me ab...

😠 Very mediocre and heavily used equipment. So much staff yet all they did was talk with each other. Place was constantly lacking cleanliness (at one point the smoothie bar got shut down due to “extremely poor sanitation”). Overall, find a local gym which is cheaper and offers an overall better time t...
