Sportcentrum Atlas on Gravelandstraat in Volendam is a broad sports centre. You'll find a complete gym, over fifty group classes a week, the Technogym Biocircuit, indoor cycling, yoga, a sauna and childcare. The gym is open 24 hours a day, all year round.

For powerlifters, the interesting part sits under the Garage Workout banner. It covers three class types, one of which is powerlifting. Those classes are all about the Big 3: squat, bench press and deadlift. You learn proper technique, do accessory work and get challenged to move as much weight as possible. The classes are for beginners and experienced lifters. Want an extra challenge on the side? Military & Endurance is meant for experienced athletes who want to build strength and conditioning.

There are also specialists in house, such as a physiotherapist, a medical adviser and personal trainers. Class times are on the current timetable.
