Best Gyms for Weightlifting near downtown?

Submitted by Strict_Message_6306 t3_10jrp57 in pittsburgh

I (22M) am moving to Pittsburgh soon (Looking for a place in and around Shadyside, Lawrenceville, etc) and am hoping to joint a gym. The only things I really care about are weights and stretching areas, maybe even a sauna if we wanna get fancy. I don’t need . So where can I find a relatively simple gym within about 20 mins of those neighborhoods? Thanks!

PS: I’m not super well-versed with the names of certain areas, but keeping it within the little triangle area in between the Allegheny and the Monongahela or just south of the downtown area would be nice.

Exercise warehouse. Weights downstairs and stretching and punching bags upstairs.

Fitness Factory in/near Shadyside has a ton of equipment for bodybuilding—a good gym if you don’t find the aesthetic strange

100% agreed. Ryan and Dana (the owners) are so kind, the equipment is great, and the people who go are so friendly. I’ve learned a lot about fitness from conversation with people at the gym at the same time as me, and I’ve recommended Celli’s to a bunch of friends and everyone loves it. 11/10 great local gym
