A gym for EVERY body. Saw a recommendation on Reddit and booked training sessions with Hans to focus on building strength and stability to support my 50-year-old knees. I thought I was going to die after my first session, but after only a month of working with Hans, I feel rejuvenated. Amazing gym for body, mind, and soul.

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.

Cool gym with a ton of equipment. Some were a bit older/well used. Hans the owner was also quite nice.

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!

Rancid vibes. Dirt and roaches everywhere. owner could really do something with the place but instead loves to lecture and scream at the members mid workout. It's impressive there are any left at all.

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 always feel great after a training session at Global!
