To us, it means you show up when you’re tired, when you don’t feel like it, when you choose the difficult thing over the easy. We show up not just for ourselves but for the others we train with. We show up because we are committed, hungry, and ready to put the work in.

  • Kimmy

    The atmosphere! I love training around hard-ass working people no matter what their goals are. I am also grateful to be one of the sponsored athletes of Southside.

  • Cameron

    Southside helped because it has a friendly and social environment with camaraderie among members, good equipment, and the best training environment in Alaska for powerlifting and bodybuilding.

  • Erika

    "The community here is amazing. I’ve never felt more welcomed—it's like having an extended family. Plus, the equipment is top-notch and supports every training need."

  • Wayne

    The equipment is top-tier—everything a serious lifter could want. And being open 24/7 is a game-changer.

  • Allison

    It’s such a supportive and tight-knit community, unlike any other gym I’ve been to. Everyone is kind, offers advice without judgment, and encourages each other to succeed…Southside has all the right equipment to target key areas, which I love!

  • “I’m in town for work multiple times a month. The rates for visitors are really reasonable with the 10 visit passes. It’s a REAL gym, with chalk and more barbells than you can shake a stick at. The resident powerlifters and Olympic lifters have been a great resource for tips and other advise with my lifts. If you’re looking for a proper barbell gym in the Anchorage area, look no further..”

    S. Adams

  • “Exceptional gym and community of people of all shapes and sizes. This place has something for everyone whether you're a desk jockey, body-builder, weekend warrior, powerlifter, cross-fitter, kick-boxer, or whatever.”

    J Barak

  • “This place has everything you need, nothing you don't. And it is all in a friendly, yet motivating environment. The staff are all friendly and extremely knowledgeable, and they make you feel like you just belong here.”

    J. Walton

  • “Simple, effective spaces and superbly maintained effective workout equipment. Zero judgment, and all the help you could ever want to reach your fitness goals.”

    P. Harmon

  • “Great gym and the best spot in town for olympic weightlifters! The weights and bars are by far the nicest in town.”

    M. Mccloskey
