Gorilla Pit was the creation of two strength athletes who were sick of the commercial gym environment where cardio equipment outnumbered serious training equipment. Where people sat on the single bench for an hour talking, curled in the squat rack and where pulling a big dead lift was frowned upon. After breaking one too many smith machines, bending the cheap barbells and searching everywhere for a non hex head dumbbell that weighed over 80 pounds, the owners of Gorilla Pit had had enough.
Raising some money and some blood pressure, they created the ultimate strength athlete environment, where loud music, big weights and big PR’s could all be thrown around! Chalk buckets, stone tacky, 1000lb tires and the best equipment on the market await those serious about making a dent in the world of strength sports. Weakness is a sickness of body and mind, and we at Gorilla Pit have the perfect medicine for you!
Gorilla Pit was born. Now, it is Ohio’s PREMIER strength sports and conditioning center. Everything you need to excel in whatever strength sport you choose, is here waiting for you. Four power cages, four deadlift platforms, four benches, a mono lift, stone platforms, 85 foot athletic lanes, giant tires, super yoke, dumbbells, axles, power bars, bumper plates, 100# plates and many more toys for the big boys!
