Best training facility on Long Island. If you’re training somewhere else you’re doing yourself a huge disservice. Shawna and her team are some of the best in the business. It’s a top notch facility, with one of the best training atmospheres I’ve ever been around. I can’t thank Shawna and Jay enough for all the support and help they’ve given me, my girlfriend, and my father over the years. Be sure to check them out.

The best of the best on Long Island. The amount of knowledge Shawna and her team have when it comes to powerlifting is amazing. She is always willing to help, teach and listen when it comes to my training. If you are in the area, you need to check out Blue Collar Barbell.

My first day at Blue Collar Barbell, I was a nervous wreck thinking, I'm not strong enough for this place, I'm not good enough for this place. I can now say I was 100% wrong!!! I initially went to Shawn for personal training and then I found myself training for my very first powerlifting meet. So out of character for me for so many reasons and I did it because of the strength and confidence I gained by working with Shawna! If anyone is even thinking about singing up somewhere, this is the place to go. I cannot say enough about them!

Jay and Shawna are great people! Very friendly even just after spending a little time with them you feel completely comfortable. Shawna also does body tempering. She worked on my troublesome tight quad and IT band. After a day of rest I had so much more mobility than before with less pain. Be sure to check it out.

As a female athlete it was important to me to find a trainer who was also a female althlete. I stumbled upon Shawna and have been training with her about a year now. I have noticed not only a change in how my body functions but also how it looks. I love working with Shawna because every training session is different, challenging and fun. She is tough but also encouraging and supportive. She is knowledgeable about how the body works and what to do to help my (many) injuries. I would, and have, recommend Shawna to pretty much everyone I know.

An absolutely fantastic gym!! Awesome owner and great equipment!!

Exactly what Long Island needs. A facility where experience lifters can share invaluable information. Both Jay and Shawna bring that level of educated experience to their club where close individualized attention can be provided. When lifts for increased strength and power require the slightest expert corrective adjustments for perfected technique, they will deliver. Whether it’s optimized performance for athletes striving to be in the top of their class, or your looking for that club that doesn’t treat you like a walking transaction, stop by and you’ll quickly see what I mean. Blue Collar Barbell is a winner!

All the information you need to begin or continue on a journey to meet your goals. Very qualified and experienced trainers. Both Shawna and Jay have the knowledge and patience to guide you with aggressive weight lifting, simply toning, dietary guidance, or strength training. Improve your overall well being, improve competitive edge for sports. Gym is clean and well equipped.

Blue Collar Barbell is an amazing gym with an amazing team!!! I had the pleasure of working with Jay and he has helped me improve myself in many ways! His knowledge and approach are like no other! I highly recommend this gym and their outstanding team.

I started working with Shawna about a month ago. She has been training me to reach certain goals and overcome a lot of obstacles I have from past injuries. Shawna pushes you by giving you the rt. Skills to believe in yourself and gives you the confidence back Both Jay and Shawna are professionals in what they do. They care about the people they work with...There gym is clean and fits all needs. I couldn’t recommend a better team to train/ coach you then BCB !!!

I started training once a week at BCB about 2 months ago and it’s been the most rewarding thing I’ve done in a long time. The way how coach Shawna adjusted my technique and form on squat added 50lbs to my squat and 60lbs to my benchpress inside of 2 months. That’s what makes her a expert! She can adjust your form and see where you’re weakest links are in seconds and tell you how to fix them just as quick. The BCB team is also just as helpful. It’s like a family. They take you in and help you do better and better.
