Fantastic experience: North Shore Barbell is the home of powerlifting in Auckland with no other gym dedicated to powerlifting and getting strong as f..k! From beginner to experienced the team at North Shore Barbell are there to help you on your way to be becoming a better you! I have been a member here for a few years now and there's no other place like it... Heaps of platforms, benches and squat racks all with top Eleiko equipment and your competition specific needs! Chalk is allowed, there's 24/7 access, you can play your own music and expect good banter with other members, and Monster energy drinks are always ready to go. The bonus is that you get to train alongside some of New Zealands best athletes!
