I'm not one to usually leave a review but for SPS, I had to. Every coach I've worked with is fantastic and they truly care about your individual workout goals and progress.
And while I'm not a regular/monthly member, every time I drop in for a workout, I feel welcomed into their community.
This also has to be one of the nicest gyms I've ever been to. Equipment is competition level throughout.

Tl;dr - SPS gym is THE best gym in the country with the best equipment, coaching staff, atmosphere, and most importantly, the most welcoming for anyone at any level to train.
Long Story
I have been doing Weight training for a couple of years now, and I got to know about SPS with my daughter, who is doing Olympic weightlifting and got introduced to the gym. Since then, I have had all the good things about this gym.
Atmosphere
You can see veteran Weightlifters to just started to learn about weightlifting newcomers, youth weightlifters, powerlifters, cross-training members, national record holders, Olympic medallions, and best-in-the-class coaches in this facility. I have been to many gyms in my life, and I have never gone to a more welcoming gym, both in terms of the coaching staff and the members, than SPS. This gym will make you comfortable anywhere you are on the journey, and you can be yourself.
Coaching Staff
The head coach Mike Jenkins (a.k.a. Big Mike) is one of the most humble and caring individuals Ive ever met. He will go to amazing lengths to make sure you get what you want and even more.
Coach Sean, Coach Bianca, Coach Jay, Coach Ray and Coach Brandon are also one of the best you can find. They will make sure to help you with anything you want and make you comfortable. Coach Brandon taught me the fundamentals of Weightlifting and to this date those concepts have been really helpful for me.
Equipment
SPS is an Eleiko certified training facility. Everything you see there across 12(?) platforms are all world-class barbells, plates, platforms, squat stands, jerk blocks, etc. SPS also has one of the best competition Weightlifting platforms in the country. For cross training, SPS has all Rogue and top of the line equipment.
Lift Us
Big Mike also started the movement to help youth get into Olympic weightlifting through the Lift Us program and had created many national champions in both girls and boys groups between the ages of 10 and 17. This program has enabled so many young kids to channel their energy and build a long-lasting life passion. My daughter has been training with Lift Us for a couple of years now, and this was a fantastic experience. Coach Bianca is amazing with the youth athletes and has helped these young kids, both girls, and boys, to qualify for the nationals and create champions. All the coaches, coach Jay, coach Sean, and coach Brandon are amazing at coaching the kids.
Competitions
No one, I mean no one, will do local meets better than SPS. SPS started Right of Passage to help first-time weightlifters showcase their skills. Right of passage introduced and built confidence for many weightlifters over the years. SPS also organizes other local meets (like the PWA championships); no one is so organized, well equipped, or well-run as how SPS does it.
Overall, SPS is a fantastic facility also located in an amazing place. But, most importantly, what matters is the people and the community I interact with. And, SPS made me and my kids feel welcomed. If you are considering doing weight-training, cross-training, or even have young kids wanting to get into Weightlifting, try out SPS. Big Mike and the coaching staff will be there to help you.

I love this gym!! Huge facility with top quality equipment. 16 Weightlifting platforms and 6 squat/bench stands for powerlifting. Large turf area with a big rig. Massage room in the back too. They always bump the best jams. Everyone is so cool there. I do the strength metcon clauses with Sean (metSean)
they have water all the time. Its actually so delicious. Two showers and one mega shower. And a massage room. Clean towels. They have rowers and assault bikes and sleds and boxes and weights and med balls and eleiko everything.
Highly recommend this gym if you are in the area and need to drop in or if you are looking for a new home gym in the area. They also have amazing youth programs.
