The Muscle Shack 1519 East Isaacs Avenue, Walla Walla, WA 99362

"From the minute you step foot inside The Muscle Shack, the environment is welcoming and challenging all at once. This is a good thing, of course. Trainers Greg and Nathan are the two nicest guys in town, but they will push you toward your fitness goals relentlessly, until you learn to push yourself with under the same set of objectives and expectations. Nathan has helped me to see my own potential as a beginning weightlifter, and has been my trainer for the past five months, but also a mentor and companion through my transition from lifting light at the YMCA to lifting heavy at The Muscle Shack - a transition that can be sometimes be daunting for women, as we develop strength, follow a program, avoid injury, and adopt a good nutrition plan. I am obsessed with this gym, it is my happy place, and I cannot recommend it enough, or encourage you strongly enough (pun intended), to seek it out and seek out Nathan and Greg's services. It is a unique gem in the landscape of this Valley's fitness offerings, and worth every penny for the membership and/or training sessions. If you want to take your physical performance to the next level, or are curious to embark on the next steps of learning about what your body can achieve, I encourage you wholeheartedly to reach out to them so that they can help you put this foundation in place. You'll laugh, you'll maybe cry (but in a good way), if you're like me you'll squeal with excitement now and then, you'll firm up, feel strong, get stronger, and you'll learn to grind through. And that's one of the best life skills anyone could hope to acquire."

"This gym is great! I met both of the guys who work here and they were very helpful! The gym has some older equipment bit everything works as it used and I wouldn't trust a gym that looks like no one uses the equipment. The other folks here seem very down to earth and there to get their work done. Everybody is very nice. Unisex bath is spacious and clean. Tons of motivational stuff on the walls and there are some interactive challenges posted too. I would definitely recommend."

"Everything about this gym is amazing! I have tried other gyms but there is something about The Muscle Shack that makes improving my body easier. From how awesome Nathan and Greg are as well as the other trainers, to the clean equipment. Everyone that comes to either get trained or workout on their own are super friendly and polite. Even when the gym gets packed, all lifters work together to get their workout through without hogging equipment or getting in the way of someone else's workout. I definitely recommend everyone to get their training done here!"
