If you ever wonder HOW we train, the best thing to do is to visit our you tube page and see our training videos.
If you REALLY wanna gain access to our coaching to help you become a champion then PLEASE, do NOT call and ask for a tour of the gym.
Touring our gym does nothing…. and, only takes 10 seconds. Through the years, EVERYONE now owns Kettlebells, free weights, sandbags, tractor tires, etc.
The tools mean NOTHING, it’s the coaching that brings the results.
In addition, we are very selective as to WHO we train. Affording our membership doesn’t guarantee entree into our program.
Your entry into our program depends on your efforts during our trial workout as well as whether or not you have been referred to us from an existing athlete / parent. Your character is THE difference maker in your success.This applies to our athletes AND parents. Unfortunately, we’ve removed some athletes from our program when their parents had issues with morals, manners and supportive behavior.
Here are some short clips of our athletes in action. As always, it’s harder than it looks. If hard work scares you, The Underground will not be a place for you. We simply can’t be good for everyone.
As you can see, we have a variety of athletes training here, from middle school / youth athletes, to high school, collegiate and olympic level athletes – they ALL work side by side.
If you’re ready to become a champion we’re ready to work with you.
If you sign up for your FREE Trial workout and our membership is full you have the option to be placed on a waiting list.
Our space is limited to ensure the best coaching for our students, we give OUR best and expect YOU to do the same!

When people hear or read about us, they assume we train only wrestlers or only high school athletes. The REAL facts are we train ALL SERIOUS athletes, which means we prepare middle school, high school, collegiate AND post collegiate athletes who are competing on an international level.
Two of our top Guns are Ben Igoe, a Fencer who recently competed in the world championships in Paris and has just returned from Bulgaria as well and David Ellis, aka The Judo BEAST.
David Ellis is a world famous (Or FEARED) Judo Beast who is regularly ranked amongst the top 3 Judoka in the USA.
To become a BEAST, understand this, you MUST be willing to do what other athletes don’t want to do. It is amazing how many athlete simply do NOT want to do the little extras that ass up to BIG wins. Amazing….

PS: We have 2 spaces for trial workouts available for SERIOUS athletes only.
Call today to schedule your trial. Due to the serious nature of our program, Not All athletes are accepted into our program.
Thank you for understanding.

At The Underground Strength Gym we don’t need fancy equipment or a BIG gym to impress people or fake our way into getting results.
We get results the old fashioned way integrated with results driven strength, speed and conditioning methods. Check out Dillon, after training with Coach Riz. The kid weighs 170 lbs and deadlifts over 500 lbs, climbs the beam and ropes with an added 20 lbs of swinging chains.
What kind of workouts are you doing?
To become an animal you must train like an animal.
We’re here, waiting for you.
Serious Inquiries Only.

Check out the Wilk Rd BEASTS….. I actually once upon a time lived on Wilk Rd, ha ha
Billy Rauh weighs 145 lbs and started with us at just under 120 lbs! He began training for high school Football and will now be joining the wrestling team as well. In less than 9 months Billy gained 20 + lbs of muscle, check him out below doing 6 laps (approximately 200′) inside the gym with 70 lb Russian Kettlebells.
Even during Football season Billy has continued to train 2 x week AND is getting stronger and adding muscle. Others have stopped and quit training altogether with excuses about being too busy, too banged up and too tired.
As the saying goes, “Hard Work Beats Talent When Talent Doesn’t Work Hard.”

PS: If you’re a hard worker and committed we will help you win more, develop confidence, pack on muscle and develop brute strength. If you’re lazy and an excuse maker, you’ve stumbled across the wrong place.
FREE Trials available for those who are committed AND work hard.
Serious Inquiries Only Please

A wrestling match has a 6 minute time limit unless Over Time comes up.
Russ Benner, a wrestler from Roselle Park, NJ pinned his way to a district title in under 4 minutes total over the course of 3 matches.
Pretty damn impressive, BUT, I am not shocked, because I have seen all the gut busting effort this BadAss has put forth for close to a year at The Underground.
Check out Russ in action below, throwing around a 130 lb sandbag.
Lead from the Front!

PS: How serious are you about dominating your opponents?
