Strength Training in Newstead – Why Club Bunker is Built for Lifters

If your training involves a barbell, we’ve built this gym with you in mind. At Club Bunker, strength training isn’t an afterthought — it’s part of our DNA.

Gear That Doesn’t Hold You Back

We’ve equipped our Newstead facility with premium, competition-level equipment:

  • Rogue full power racks (no half racks here)

  • Comp-standard benches for bench press and incline

  • Squat/bench combo rack for powerlifting-specific prep

  • Texas power bars and specialty barbells (safety squat, trap, multi-grip)

  • Calibrated plates for accurate loads

  • Dumbbells up to 80kg — the heaviest in the area

  • Full lifting platforms with deadlift bars

We also stock supportive lifting gear in our online store: check out our 24" wrist wraps for your next big bench day, or grab figure 8 lifting straps to lock in your deadlift setup.

Spaces That Support the Grind

Whether you’re prepping for a comp, chasing PRs, or training for life, our layout keeps your flow uninterrupted. No cardio crowding your deadlift space. No queuing for squat racks. Just serious lifters and space to move.

Our 4x10m sled track also means you’re covered for explosive work — prowler pushes, sled drags, and walkouts. Pair this with our mobility tools, InBody Scan, and recovery add-ons, and you’ve got everything under one roof.

Real Community, Real Progress

At Club Bunker, strength training is more than physical. Our community of lifters pushes each other, shares advice, and respects the hustle. Whether you’re new to the barbell or a seasoned athlete, you’ll feel right at home.

We’re also proud to welcome independent powerlifting coaches and PTs who rent space in our gym. If you're looking for programming or comp prep support — we’ve got in-house experts who can help.
