Who trains here

Home to the strongest athletes in Houston.

We are currently home to the strongest athletes in Houston — many 2,000 pound male totals, 1,000 pound female totals, Highland Games world record holders, and Arnold Strongman competitors.

Strength is for everyone. We have elite level athletes on the floor, and we welcome lifters of any level. This is home to anyone who wants to push themselves in an environment designed to get the absolute best out of you.

Southside Elite Strength is a private gym specialising in strength. It was built to be the destination for anyone chasing strength to the fullest, surrounded by like-minded people.

What gets put on the wall.

Southside keeps its top tens in chalk by the dumbbells. These are the leaders.

On the floor

Competition equipment, all of it usable.

Nothing here is decorative. If it is on the floor, it is because someone trains on it.

Powerlifting

Competition standard, not approximate

Monolifts, combo racks, designated competition benches, deadlift platforms and kilo plates. You train on what you will compete on.

Strongman

Implements, not improvisation

Wagon wheels, logs, stones, sandbags, kegs, a yoke and a farmers frame. Everything you need to train events properly.

Environment

Hardcore, no BS

Environment is everything. The room is loud, the standards are high, and nobody is going to ask you to keep it down.

Coming soon

The new gym.

We are expanding to include members from every genre of fitness. Five thousand square feet of hand-picked equipment inside a hardcore, no BS warehouse gym.

Environment is everything, and the environment at Southside Elite Strength cannot be matched. Whether it is powerlifting, bodybuilding, strongman or general fitness, we have you covered.

  • Every piece of strength equipment we already have
  • 80+ hand-picked bodybuilding machines
  • 90 ft turf strip
