A gym catering for every type of training, from beginner level to advanced we have all aspects of training covered.

Numerous amounts of calibrated plates and bumper plates, dumbbells ranging from 1kg to 70kg in increments of 2.5kg.

Specialty bars, competition spec benches and racks, all aspects of strongman equipment available all ranging in various weights for everyone to use.

Outside area available for training with access to two containers also full of equipment.

Since opening in 1985 we have created champions & record holders in a number of sports and we aren’t finished yet.

Good luck Suzanne MacMillan

Competing at Britains strongest master 2026

This is a high level, but it’s where this Burns queen belongs.

Minimal shenanigans today, maximum effort.
Let’s see some of that MacMillan β€˜Finish it or pass out, there is no other option’ spirit.

We all wish you well.

Hands up if we think Big Dave should go all-in and do a wee 'pass out' on an event tomorrow!?

A huge good luck to you, David Macmillan ! Last minute entry to a comp, and a Few weeks prep has been no bother to a Veteran like him 🀩🀌
Team Burns are behind you all the way πŸ‘(Suzzi will need to pick you up after said pass-out tomorrow though) πŸ˜‰πŸ€£

Scotlands Strongest Man Qualifier tomorrow at Burns Gym ! And how proud are we to have not 1, but 2 of our full time, fully involved members competing!

Steven Murray (the photos a little flashback πŸ˜‰) is giving the Qualifier another massive push, although I'm sure he does it so he doesn't have to crew πŸ€”πŸ€£ Only signed up a month ago - lets see everything tomorrow!

And Big George, one of the hardest working guys you'll ever meet! He's not only been training for Naturals Strongman, he's been doing double event sessions for weeks now! πŸ₯΅

Lets see you both get top 20, so we can all go crazy at the finals for you! Good luck lads πŸ€πŸ€žπŸ’ͺπŸ”₯ Proud no matter what! πŸ’―
