When I first dreamed of starting @PDXstrength, I envisioned a space where members of all ages and abilities could lift weights, feel empowered, and thrive.

Sometimes I have to pinch myself when I look around the studio, seeing this dream in action—strong, determined, and supportive people bringing this vision to life every single day.

PDXstrength is more than just a gym. It’s a safe, inviting, and inclusive community where you show up exactly as you are, lift heavy things, and find support from folks who genuinely cheer you on.

Come find your strength, your community, and your confidence with us. We can’t wait to welcome you. ❤️🔥 Going on 13 years and hopefully many more. Thank you to everyone that’s been apart of this amazing journey!

Hey friends! Matt made this kick up to a handstand hold against the wall look easy, but he’s worked sooooo incredibly hard to get here. With out any gymnastics or handstand experience, plus being a 6 foot tall person, this wasn’t the easiest of feats. We spent a long time working on wall walks, strict press, hollow holds, and spotted HS holds. Im so proud that he reached his goal. It took us 15 months to get here, and little by little each week, he got a little closer. Now the new goal is pistol squats! Let’s go! taken in St Johns Neighborhood by @pdxstrength

It’s time for a humble brag! When Lisa started with me, she wasn’t able to air squat without pain in her knees and struggled getting depth. We have worked sooooo hard on mobility, core and quad strength. She’s squatting 100lbs with no pain and a very respectable depth. I’m soooooo proud of her 🥹 taken in St Johns Neighborhood by @pdxstrength
