PRIDE Conditioning - Gym

I’ve been going to Pride Conditioning for about a month or two now and I’ve honestly enjoyed working out here more than ever. The workouts are challenging but motivating, and the atmosphere makes it easy to stay consistent. Coach Doug has been a huge help, always taking the time to correct my form, answer questions, and push me in the right way. Thanks to him and the overall vibe of the gym, I actually look forward to working out, which hasn’t always been the case for me.

Very cool gym with a great vibe. The owner is friendly and welcoming, loves to train. There is good equipment here for powerlifting, or you can jump in one of the group classes. Great spot for regular training or visit when you’re in town and want to get a lift in!

I came to PRIDE Conditioning with one goal: get back to powerlifting. Doug and Lindsay have taken out all of the guess work for me and have consistently programmed my training in a way that's been enjoyable, progressive, and simple. I was out of practice for almost a decade and within 2 months, I'm lifting more than my previous 1RMs due to their ongoing support and encouragement. This has been the best gym community I've ever been a part of. Doug and Lindsay have been incredibly welcoming, generous, and down to earth. The members I've met are effortlessly the same. The environment is truly that of a family which adds to my desire to keep showing up and putting in the work. In a short time, this space has become a home away from home for me and a way to anchor down during the swells of life. For what it's worth, I've considered moving back to the Northeast in recent months and this gym and community have had such an impact on me that it's not even an option now.

I wouldn’t be where I am without this gym and especially Coach Douglass. The knowledge he brought really started me down the path I want to be on. Forever grateful for this gym and staff.

Beautiful, large space with full powerlifting and oly setup (tons of calibrated plates and competition racks!). For strongman training, there is a yoke, log, heavy sandbag, tires, two sets of farmers handles, and an axle bar. PRIDE is the best place in Charlotte to train for your next strength competition or simply get started on the path to more strength and athleticism.
