I've put 25 kilos/55lbs on my total in a few months. That's the review.Additionally - Jason, the head coach, has the best eye of any coach I've known, and I truly feel every cue he gives makes a big difference in how a lift feels. He knows when on a lifter's journey to give what cue, and does so maintaining a kind, supportive, and positive energy in his coaching style and in the gym. I've also felt extremely supported by the very knowledgeable assistant coaches, especially Yaj and Santi. Finally, there's nothing that catapults improvement like being in an environment with talented, hardworking, *strong* athletes, especially when they're of the caliber of BASA (many go to nationals, and a few even medal). Can't recommend highly enough to anyone looking to learn or improve the olympic lifts.

BASA is more than just a gym, if you're a strength athlete it's a one stop shop to reach all your training goals.Jason and his coaching staff have a wealth of invaluable knowledge when it comes to training Weightlifters & other strength athletes. Cannot recommend enough!

This gym is truly one-of-a-kind. The head coach Jason is extremely knowledgeable; not just about Olympic lifting and building muscle, but also about nutrition, recovery, and mental toughness. It's an excellent community where you can really get huge strength and fitness results.

Im visiting from Kansas City and I was looking for a gym to lift at while I was in town. I found BASA online and figured I give it a shot. The owner was a really nice guy who literally ran up to me to invite me into the gym. The people were really nice and they have a wide assortment of powerlifting, weightlifting, Crossfit and strongman equipment for what ever you want to workout. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a place to train!

Great place, great lifters, whether you’re a beginner or competing nationally, this is the place to go in Baltimore. Your technique will be on point by listening to the head coach and all the coaches here.

Found BASA by chance and could not be happier that I did. The facility is well maintained and there has been a steady stream of new equipment since I started. The people are welcoming and dedicated. Most importantly, the Coaches are knowledgeable and I absolutely love the programming. Coming from crossfit and perpetual shoulder injury, the coaches at BASA worked with me to fix imbalances, correct faulty movement patterns, and get strong and healthy. Jason is always open to feedback and adjusting your program when necessary. Following his programs, I have become a more proficient lifter and have gotten significantly stronger in a short period of time. Also, meet day coaching is on point! I was completely in awe during my first few meets as everything is taken care of for you.

Unmatched programming. Open 24/7. And serious results. Other weightlifting gyms cost the same, but they don’t deliver results like this gym does. Head coach knows his stuff and undeniably the best Olympic lifting coach I have EVER had. If I could rate 10 stars, I would
