Epic Gym in Bleiswijk was set up by owner Jeffrey Lange, strength and conditioning coach and personal trainer since 2009. The approach is no-nonsense: no tricks, no miracle cures. The gym says it has the largest range of strength machines in Lansingerland.
Powerlifting has its own place here. The gym has IPF-approved competition equipment, so you train on what you'll also find at a meet. Epic Gym is affiliated with the KNKF Powerlifting Section. The site also explains what counts at a meet: squatting to at least parallel, pausing the bar on your chest in the bench and finishing upright in the deadlift.
Besides fitness and powerlifting there's kickboxing, with group boxing classes, and you can do personal training or online coaching. The membership combines strength training and kickboxing.
The biggest plus for early or late lifters: with a key you can train 365 days a year, every day from 04:00 to 23:00. A trial session is free. The motto on the floor: train seriously, laugh a lot, help each other.
