Squats Gym Streatham Review

Squats Gym is an independent bodybuilding gym on Mitcham Lane in Streatham that opened in 1989. It has been serving local weightlifters for over 28 years! The gym is in a basement and has an excellent range of equipment squeezed into the limited space available.

Facilities

To be honest the facilities in Squats Gym are very dated. The changing rooms and toilets are not in the best condition. Women who plan to use the gym should be aware there is no female changing room.
The gym also sells a selection of nutritional supplements and offers personal training.

Equipment

What Squats Gym lacks in facilities it makes up with an an excellent range of weightlifting equipment. They’ve got all the basics and even some specialist pieces like a hexagonal trap bar. They probably have the best range of weightlifting equipment in the area (apart from the excellent Kings Gym in Croydon).

The cardio equipment is however very limited. There are only 6 pieces of cardio equipment.
