Currently go to Iron Factory but was looking for a place with calibrated plates and a more specific powerlifting setup. Benches at Iron Factory are rough... I work with a remote powerlifting coach. Need the core lifts: Deadlift, Bench, Squat. But also need a good mix of bodybuilding equipment for accessory work.
Pittsburgh Barbell has a small powerlifting section. Good set of calibrated plates. Two lifters putting up big totals in there at the same time could definitely use all the 25kg plates. Solid comp bench and deadlift spot. Didn't love the squat situation. Plenty of specialty bars. Down side -- DB's only up to 125lbs. No machines like hack squat, leg press, and minimal cable set up. There was a small rep cable with weight up to 80lbs and a lat pulldown. Just wouldn't have been able to do my powerlifting programming with the set up.
But this is definitely an oly lighters dream. Entire half of gym dedicated to it. Wood platforms, bumper plates on every wall, blocks, various stands and racks. Would be excellent if you're an oly lifter.
Very few people when I arrived but super friendly crew. Fist bump right when I walked in while two people were getting a crossfit style workout in. Seemed like a coaching situation but excellent dynamic. Another guy training someone in the back that pointed me to the powerlifting section. Loved the old school oly posters, awards, competition banners. You know great training is happening in that place. Genuinely seems like a great spot.
