Attention Baby Boomers – it’s never too late to get stronger!

Recent posting of youth training doesn't tell the whole story. People may hear the name Liberty Barbell and automatically assume it’s for a younger crew. Far from the truth with our average age much more seasoned we know you’ll fit in.

With over 14 years of experience as a Director of Wellness at two major Sioux Falls retirement communities we offer personal training tailored specifically for adults 55+.

Whether you want to:
✅ Build strength to stay independent
✅ Improve balance and reduce fall risk
✅ Boost energy for golf, grandkids, or travel
✅ Move better with less joint pain

No crowded classes. No judgment. Just real results in a welcoming, authentic gym environment.

Spots are limited for 1-on-1 personal training. Got a friend or two, semi-private training rates available!

Message us to get the ball rolling!

Happy 9th Birthday, ol’ man Giles. Still a pup at heart but with less tolerance to idiots and more aches after activity. Here’s to my original gym pup.

He is Risen!!

“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for US.”- Romans 5:8

Wishing you and your family a blessed and joyful Easter.

The 5-degree iconic reverse hyper, the way Louie Simmons intended. These are often imitated but never duplicated. See for yourself, we also have a 2nd reverse hyper that is flat rather than the patented 5-degree model. Pick your poison and get that posterior strong and HEALTHY!!

HS powerlifting season is officially in the books!!
We’ve shifting gears for the next couple months—adjusting the training model to keep building strength, technique, and momentum heading into summer/off-season.
Huge thanks to Coach for jumping in and dialing in those power cleans and hang cleans with our athletes. Sometimes a fresh voice, a new cue, or just a different perspective is all it takes to click—and I saw some serious lightbulbs go off yesterday!
Grateful for great collaborators who help our kids level up. Who’s ready for the next phase?

Giles is living his best life. It's tough to see him turning into an old man, but that's life.

He doesn’t always go to the gym, but when he does it’s after grooming and he soaks up the loving!!

The man of the hour!! biggest fan…Austin Forrest. As an 8th grader, he was the 3rd-highest DOTS at the 2026 South Dakota State Powerlifting Championships. This young man went from only deadlifting 80 lbs 14 months ago (he was not comfortable enough with squats or bench to compete) to an amazing 210 squat, 145 bench, and 225 deadlift!! This was all done at a 116 bodyweight!! Great job Austin!!! You are the man!!

Being and staying organized helps give respect to fellow members. That’s how we operate. Gym members have the standard, return items where you got them so the next guy knows where to find them. Do people periodically forget, yep. But it’s not the Liberty standard. If you’re sick of unkept gyms and crowds, give Liberty a look.

Here’s to 5 years of Liberty Barbell

Hard to believe the door opened 5 years ago today. During this process, I’ve met some great people and friends, and I’m happy our lives have crossed paths.

The gym started with a meager email to 12 people, 2400 sq ft, and 14 pieces of equipment. Today….4800 square feet and quadruple the equipment. What a blessing!
