Ending the year STrong!
Yes, you heard it right—Elite Barbell Sunset Park is now complete! We’re thrilled to share some exciting updates since our last post.
Let’s address the elephant in the room first. Unfortunately, as many of you may know, we had to close our Dyker Heights location. It was a tough decision, but with every challenge comes an opportunity. This shift allowed us to go all in on our Sunset Park location, making it the official headquarters of Elite Barbell.
What does this mean for you? We’ve taken the best of Dyker and Sunset and merged them into one powerhouse gym. Here’s what’s new:
The Bodybuilding Room has been reimagined and renamed the Main Room.
The Powerlifting Room is now the Premium Room, offering an exclusive experience for those serious about powerlifting.
Big Changes to the Main Room:
The Main Room now has a dedicated powerlifting section, equipped with three combo racks and kilo plates—perfect for lifters who need top-tier gear without stepping into the Premium Room.
What Makes the Premium Room Special?
The Premium Room remains the ultimate space for competitive powerlifters. It’s outfitted with the exact equipment you’ll find on the grand stage—ideal for honing your skills and training like the best.
As 2024 winds down, we want to extend a massive thank you to all of our supporters. Midyear, things were rocky, and we weren’t sure how the story would play out. But with your encouragement and loyalty, we course-corrected and came back stronger than ever.
It’s not about how you start—it’s about how you finish. And let us tell you, the future at Elite Barbell is brighter than ever.
Here’s to an even bigger, stronger, and better 2025. Thank you for being part of the journey.
See you at the gym,
Team Elite Barbell
Powerlifting room complete!
We meant to update this blog a couple of weeks ago when it was completed, but we’ve been incredibly busy managing both gyms. The powerlifting room at our Sunset location was a long time in the making, but it’s finally done!
We’ve matted the entire room to allow deadlifts to be performed anywhere within the space. Additionally, we’ve added two Eleiko combo racks and one ER rack, bringing us to a total of three. We also have four Eleiko IPF competition bars and a complete set of kilo plates for members to use.
Another exciting update is that we’ve gone 24 hours! We now offer select memberships with 24-hour access. The first option is Tier 1 + 24-Hour, which provides access to the bodybuilding room only, but with 24-hour availability. Tier 3 gives members access to the entire facility along with 24-hour access.
The New Era: Elite Barbell Opens Second Location!
After countless hours of hard work, the time has finally come. We’re thrilled to announce the soft launch of our second location! Located at 204 25th St, Brooklyn, NY 11232, this new spot marks a significant milestone for Elite Barbell.
Bodybuilding Section: Nearly There!
Our bodybuilding section is about 80 percent complete and we’re currently fine-tuning it. We’ve added some fantastic new pieces of equipment, especially for leg training enthusiasts. You’ll find the Roger’s Squat Pro and the Pendulum Squat by Arsenal Strength ready to take your workouts to the next level. Excitingly, we’ve also added deadlifting platforms in our bodybuilding room—something we couldn’t do at our old location.
Powerlifting Area: Competition Ready
We’re putting in the effort to make our powerlifting area truly exceptional, aiming to replicate what you’d see in a competition setting. Expect two Eleiko combo racks, one ER combo rack, a dedicated deadlift area, and three Eleiko IPF certified competition bars. It’s going to be a powerlifting paradise!
Special Pre-Opening Offer
Now is the perfect time to join! We’re running a special sale for our bodybuilding area. Beat the rush at other gyms and come check us out. Don’t miss this chance to be part of Elite Barbell’s new era!
Visit us at www.elitebarbellnyc.com for more details and stay tuned for updates. We can’t wait to see you there!

Bodybuilding room 2.0
The bodybuilding room has been revamped, allowing for a more structured look. We now have two squat racks in the room, along with a new rogue belt squat. The layout allows for more space. Dumbbells are now in the center of the room. Mirrors will be placed over the dumbbells in the future.
New Name, New Motivation
Part of growing is learning to adapt and evolve in an ever-changing market. We've rebranded from elite gym to elite barbell. We feel the name better establishes us as a premier training facility. We are in a different league no a different sport than regular chain gyms. Through our equipment our community and the way we operate. We hope you enjoy the name as well as our new logo. For us, it represents the love we have for training and our beloved city. Our facility will be a beacon to those two things and foster a community that will be equally as inviting.
We wave goodbye to Elite Gym and cherish the good times. Long live Elite Barbell onward!
