Located at 14 Crown Street in South Geelong, Strong Geelong is more than just a gym. It is a place where members can come to work hard, hang out, and be a part of a strong and supportive community. The gym aims to see all rise together with the tide, fostering a sense of camaraderie and belonging.
Established in 2015, Strong Geelong was created to bring something different to the Geelong gym scene. Starting small in a warehouse, it quickly grew into a thriving space filled with loud music, barbells dropping, and people pushing themselves to their limits. Today, it stands as one of the largest strength-focused facilities in the country.
The gym is locally and independently owned by Tyson Morrissy, a four-time Australian Strongest Man under 105 kg and former World Champion. With his expertise and passion for strength training, Strong Geelong offers some of the best equipment from around the world. From Watson Machines imported from the UK to barbells from Texas and Strongman equipment from Stand or Submit, members have access to top-notch training tools.
Spanning over 800 square metres, the facility is well-equipped to cater to athletes and gym users of all levels. Downstairs, you'll find everything you need for training in Strongman, Powerlifting, Weightlifting, and conditioning. Upstairs, there are endless options with pin-loaded and plate-loaded machines for all types of workouts. Additionally, cardio equipment is available for those looking to break a sweat.
Membership at Strong Geelong grants 24/7 access to the gym, allowing members to work out whenever it suits them. The gym also hosts monthly community events to bring members together and foster a sense of belonging. Beyond just a training space, Strong Geelong offers allied services and an unparalleled training atmosphere. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced lifter, the gym has a wide variety of knowledgeable staff ready to assist you in achieving your goals.
The coaching team at Strong Geelong is dedicated to helping members reach their goals. Whether you're looking for guidance in strength training, weight loss, or improving overall fitness, the coaches have the expertise to support you. After signing up, members can book a free fundamental session to learn the basics of squat, bench, and deadlift.
Programming is another area where Strong Geelong excels. From first-time programmes to World Championship preparation, the gym prides itself on having some of the best minds in the game. Members receive template programmes upon signing up, but they also have the option to join the “Strong Geelong” programme or work with a coach to create a customised programme tailored to their individual needs.
In August, Strong Geelong will be introducing two new allied health professionals on-site, offering members additional support in their fitness journey. More information on how to book appointments will be announced soon.
