Downtown Fitness Training

OK, I'm bringing back the old POWERLIFTING TEAM MEMBERSHIP to GetStrongWithUs for the 2025 season.

Get a custom training program, gym access (DowntownFitness), individualized coaching, and meet handling options!

Membership options start at 50/month. To qualify you are required to sign up for a meet and join one of the approved Federations. Hit me up for details.

Not in Franklin, NC? No problem, online coaching and virtual training options are available.

Shameless plug for my gym; Downtown Fitness.
If it ain't obvious, I own a gym. We provide In-Person and Online Personal Training so whether you're a friend in Franklin, or from afar we can help you achieve your fitness goals.

We also use my facility to host our community events like the Appalachian Rainbow Creative Collective Artist Markets and our Community Aid efforts... so when you help keep our gym open, you also help support local artists and communities in need.

So hit me up if you want to get stronger, be more mobile, or retain your independence as you age.

Current Donations urgently being accepted at Downtown Fitness.

After this crisis starts to get under control and things start to return to "normal", my hope is that all the mutual aid networks being developed stay up and running!

DOWNTOWN FITNESS has wifi, and power if y'all need to charge your devices. We also have a microwave if you need to heat up a meal and don't have power at your house. Doors are open till 5pm today. Please sign the guest sheet at the front if you drop by.

I will also be opening the gym up tomorrow at 8am-5pm for the same purposes. Currently over 35% of Macon county is without power, and cell service is down.

Other places to go are the Otto Community Building and the Macon County Public Library.

Y'all be safe out there and don't drive if you don't have to! That being said, the Downtown Fitness is open if you need a dry place to be or a place to charge your devices.

Our private gym provides a safe and welcoming environment for y'all to get in your workouts. Each and every member has access to custom training programs and personal training. Whether your goal is to just move & feel better, or to become a circus performer, we can help you get there!

Tomorrow in Franklin along with several other talented performers! Showtimes at 3pm and 7pm. LGBTQIA+ Artist Market 2-530 then 6-9.
