Who We Are
At Stable Goat Barbell, we're more than just a gym - we're a sanctuary where transformations happen, both physically and mentally. My journey into weightlifting didn't start as a quest for muscles; it began as a quest for redemption. In my 20s, I battled with demons of addiction and struggled with my weight. But when the love for my wife and the responsibility of fatherhood beckoned, I knew I had to change. The desire to be there for my family, to dance with my daughters at their weddings, ignited a fire within me to reclaim my health and vitality.
Stable Goat Barbell is more than a name; it's a philosophy. Like the calming presence of goats among horses, our gym aims to cultivate an atmosphere of camaraderie and support, where no one feels isolated or alone in their journey. Marcus Aurelius once said, "You have power over your mind – not outside events." At Stable Goat, we empower our members to harness that inner strength, to overcome life's obstacles, and to emerge not just physically stronger, but mentally resilient. Whether you're a seasoned lifter or stepping into the gym for the first time, we invite you to join our herd and discover the transformative power of lifting weights at Stable Goat Barbell.
Weightlifting became my salvation during one of life's most challenging moments: my wife's battle with breast cancer. Amidst the turmoil, the iron provided solace, a sanctuary where I could channel my fears and frustrations into something constructive. It wasn't just about building physical strength anymore; it was about fortifying my mind and spirit. In the gym, I found a community of kindred spirits, individuals who understood the transformative power of lifting weights not just for the body, but for the soul.
