Heavy Metals Strength & Powerlifting Club

Fantastic experience: If you're considering different gyms in Townsville, in my opinion, you've found the best place. Heavy Metals is by far the best gym experience I’ve ever had, and I’ve lived in 3 countries and many different cities over the years. I have been especially impressed with the quality of coaching and equipment, and the welcoming, friendly team environment. There is a good mix of all ages, body types, abilities, gender etc. The other experienced lifters are friendly and encouraging and always close-by in case others need a spot on a heavy lift, or some words of encouragement, or technique advice. I'm an older lifter and was nervous about injury etc. I have been impressed with the programming's fatigue management; our coach is ever attentive, consistently checking in on how each lift feels and managing the program as it progresses. I feel like my ability to injure myself is very low, yet I feel as if I am tracking towards being the strongest that I have ever been. My program is shared with me on google sheets, so I can update it live on my phone as I train, but if that isn’t your thing I’ve seen many of the other lifters using printed out copies. As for the gym itself, the equipment is fantastic; competition quality with a large range of accessory, cardio, and mobility equipment for whatever your goals are. The 24hr access option is great too, in case your schedule gets muddled; but the social aspect of the gym is that good that you’ll find yourself aiming to train when the gym is full, which if you know normal gym culture, you’ll know how strange that sounds. It really is just that good.
