Easily the best gym for those that have a passion for lifting. And confidently takes my #1 spot for best gym I’ve had the pleasure of working out at. Being the only gym in Portland for half its life, the owner has worked out there for 60 years. Most of the equipment is custom made by Portland iron workers and welding shops that closed down years ago. It has one of the first nautilus machines ever made, and a wealth of knowledge in classic bodybuilding magazines and books. Loprinzi’s is not only a small slice of old Portland, a place of local business and passionate people; it’s an honest last bastion of the golden era of bodybuilding, a place you can hardly find amidst corporatized and indifferent box gyms set up to make a buck. The owner is there every day and works out with us in between greeting guests and sharing stories about the history of the place. Thank you, Bob, for continuing to provide and maintain such a special atmosphere and culture that’s lost to us in most places. Loprinzi’s is a modern day monument to a lifestyle I didn’t think I’d be lucky enough to experience.

I was so excited to try out this no-frills gym that everyone seems to love. I was pretty put off by how cramped the space was, but whatever, I could get used to that. The real treasure was the women's locker room. Guys. This locker room looks like it's been abandoned for a few decades. Neither the lights nor water worked. The sauna is completely out of commission as well. I almost couldn't stifle my laughter; it was so unbelievably decrepit and abandoned. I felt like I was in Silent Hill. The owner seemed lovely and I'm sure if you're a dude you'll fit right in here. But unfortunately old-school also means that women aren't really welcomed here. At least that's how I felt.

Definitely an old school gym for experienced lifting. Some of the machines are not super intuitive but solid as a rock and has everything you need. Has a good neighborhood feel, great selection of free weights, a pool, and is the cheapest gym in town with a cool history.

This gym needs to be protected! What an absolute treasure it is. Rich in history and they do a great job at preserving it. It feels like you stepped back in time. Getting to train with original chain driven Nautilus equipment globe dumbbells were a highlight for me. I hope this gym stays open for many more years to come!

The gym with the best atmosphere I've ever been to. Super cool old school gym with tons of equipment and friendly staff and good prices. Really well preserved while still feeling like it has a lot of history
