I was in San Diego for a major Grip Contest - which was at Grinder Gym. WOW! What an EPIC gym! Outdoor and indoor workout areas, clean and excellent equipment, literally something for everybody. If I lived in California - my wife, teenage son and I would be happy members forever! The owner, Dave DePew was such a chill, awesome gentleman. A visionary, great physique, legendary strong dude, welcoming and humble. Dave was a judge for the grip contest, and it was an honor to have lifted in front of him. Thanks

If youre a strength athlete & you havent seen this gym, theres a void in your life that just wont be filled- bar none. With more atlas stones & strongman equipment than most gyms have plates- Grinder gym is THE place to be. Super cool owner, huge amount of space indoors & outdoors, people of all orientation & skill level welcome and not a single lunk alarm in sight- this place makes me wish I lived in Ca instead of Pa. Thank you for hosting the 2024 national grip sport championship, I was in awe as soon as I saw the place & I leave with some of the best memories of my lifting career thanks to you! Youve set a new standard of what I consider to be an incredible gym, one that will likely never be beaten ! Regards, Indi Ladhar

I really love the atmosphere here! Everyone is kind and helpful. Ive been powerlifting for 5 years and I appreciate when a gym has a variety of barbells and plates to train with. Machines and cables are well maintained and clean even with a majority outside! Definitely recommend
