Welcome to our esteemed gym, a sanctuary for all serious strength training enthusiasts. Our humble beginnings trace back to 1987 when Harry, Eva, and Wayne Catterall founded a gym at Foundry Lane, Wigan. It was a family-run business that quickly garnered a reputation for its unwavering dedication to hardcore training. As the gym flourished, it required larger premises to accommodate the growing number of members. In 1995, we moved to our current location at Church Drive, Orrell, which offered the much-needed space and the convenience of a private car park.
Our gym is renowned for its winning spirit, which was cultivated between 1997 and 2010 when our current owner, Wayne, won multiple titles for BWLA and World Titles for WDFPDA. Today, we cater to all serious strength training disciplines, with our gym split into rooms to keep iron plates and cables type machines separate. The atmosphere is friendly yet businesslike, with knowledgeable staff always on hand to provide time-tested training advice or a firm hand for a heavy lift spot.
At our gym, we understand that a heavy training session is only half the battle. Proper nutrition is equally important, which is why we stock a full range of pre and post-workout supplements. Additionally, we offer our own range of branded training clothing for sale.
