HISTORY
Every serious lifter has the same story; they go from local gym to local gym each time one goes under due to big corporate gyms moving in. They try to squat, bench and deadlift at their new corporate fitness center but it is either "sorry, no chalk here" or "you guys are bending the bars" or, "look, you guys are scaring the folks on the treadmills when you train." The Monster Garage Gym was literally a garage gym for serious lifters (some driving 90 minutes for a big squat/bench/dead session) who wanted to be able to use chains, bands, who wanted to go heavy, who wanted quality spotters , who needed help with their bench shirt and who wanted to train with other serious powerlifters who "got it." From there the leap was small and that was to provide this experience but in a 1,500sqft facility so other serious powerlifters would have a place to train to compete. As more powerlifters found their new home at the Monster Garage Gym, another move a year later to a 2,500 sqft facility in Gurnee occured. 2-Time WPC World Champion, Eric Maroscher and NFL Washington Redskins Defensive End teamed up to create this gym just for a lifter like you.
