Your coach
Patrick Rice
I'm a competitive strongman and powerlifter, so I coach what I do. I know what it takes to learn the stones, press a log overhead and get ready for meet day.
I have a BS in Kinesiology from SUNY Cortland and I'm NSCA-CPT certified. Technique comes first, so you can keep lifting heavy for years.
The crew
More than
a gym
Strongmen and powerlifters training side by side, pushing each other and celebrating every PR.

In their words

“The best place to go for serious training the owner Patrick is the man to see for solid programs or personal training from people getting in shape, to competitive strongmen/powerlifters…”
“When I first started at Atlas Strength six years ago, I was looking to simply get stronger, but I found so much more than a gym—I found a family and an unparalleled level of coaching.”
Questions
FAQ
Anything else? Call or text (516) 524-3420.
