Coming back 2 years later with an update — I’m currently stronger and fitter than I’ve ever been, because of S&S programming. Rhuben and Wes’s coaching has enabled me to continue breaking my PRs, and the community they foster is EVERYTHING! Nothing feels better than achieving a goal with a gym full of familiar, friendly faces cheering you on. This gym is my happy place :)—-I tried most gyms in Athens, before committing to a Strength and Stripe membership. S&S offers exactly what I was looking for -- high quality workouts that challenge me with both strength-training, endurance-building! Plus, they are led by experienced, knowledgable coaches who prioritize form and safety over everything else. I highly recommend S&S for everyone. The classes are great for all skill & experience levels, because the classes are small groups and the instructors figure out how to tailor the workout to your specific abilities, injuries, goals & needs.

A great space and gym to really test your physical fitness. I had one of the best workouts I have had in a long time doing their 6:30 boxing class and would gladly do it again.

The absolute best environment for someone who needs a little extra motivation to get in the gym! Such a welcoming environment that will make you feel better about yourself after getting a great workout in!

The best experience I’ve had in an exercise class setting. I am a beginner and they let you move at your own pace and offer help when needed. Particularly good and supportive vibes and Rhuben was welcoming. Highly recommend and I will be back when I’m in Athens.

Your body needs this gym. You can start from scratch and rebuild yourself from the ground up or find a class that compliments your current regime. People are encouraging and all ages. Fun routines with great music make the classes fly by and you'll leave feeling strong and accomplished

As someone that was very anxious about starting something new, this has been a wonderful experience. Every single person I've met has been kind and helpful and I think that's a testament to the community that Wes and Rhuben have cultivated.I'm working out more consistently than ever before and I'm actually enjoying it.I would recommend S&S to anybody who might be interested!

Home away from home. This gym and the coaches always give me an amazing workout and make sure I’m doing it so that I’m getting stronger safely. I love both the strength and strike classes and often do both because they are such high value classes for one hour!

2026-01-28T01:07:07.285Z

Strength and Strike is awesome! They have a very welcoming and encouraging environment. Would highly recommend for anyone who has been wanting to give boxing or strength training a try.

I am so glad I joined Strength and Strike fitness! The trainers understand everyone’s individual needs, and meet you where you are. They will also push you when needed.

If you want to get in shape and have fun doing it, this is the place to go . Rhuben and Wes know their stuff. Excellent workouts!

I love this gym! I started boxing on the west coast and struggled to find a gym in Athens that compared to my "home" gym, then I found Strength and Strike and knew immediately I had found the one. The classes are never boring, always the right amount of challenging, and the mostly-female classes make me feel so comfortable and welcomed. That said, the guys who workout there and the male coaches are super kind and encouraging as well :)

Such a good culture with an awesome staff! Rhuben and Wes bring high vibes and good accountability! If you’re looking for a good place to workout, this is a great place to check out. Whether you want high intensity exercise, strength based programming, or anything in between, this is a top notch place.
