The Hudson Valley's dedicated powerlifting gym, serving serious lifters from Highland, Poughkeepsie, Newburgh, New Paltz, Kingston, and surrounding areas.
Build confidence with the barbell in a welcoming, low-pressure environment. Whether you have never touched a barbell before or want to refine your mechanics, this three-part workshop series introduces the foundational powerlifting movements through clear, structured instruction. HVPL membership not required.
No prior strength training experience is needed — wear comfortable workout clothes and bring a willingness to learn. You will walk away with a strong starting foundation in each lift, a better understanding of proper technique, and a clear path toward continuing your strength journey.
