I love Mecca. But specifically, I love working with Coach Marlon Carson at Mecca. I was a garage gym grinder for over 15 years before I finally decided to use a gym for my strength and lifting goals. Researched many local gyms and finally chose Mecca because of Marlon and what he brought to the table. Been working out with him for 3.5 years. Though the gym moved locations, grew, and had many changes with staff and atmosphere, Marlon has been an anchor for the Strongman, Powerlifting, and Strength and Conditioning crowd. Because of his expertise, comfortable personality, and desire to help me reach my goals, I've been able to conquer not only gym PRs but also other strength and conditioning goals I set for myself like lifting strength stones in Iceland, climbing mountains, and excelling in backcountry hunts. But Marlon has also inspired me, and I have chosen to take lessons learned in the gym of grit, resilience, and overcoming failure, and apply them to my personal life and business. I've stayed at Mecca all these years because Marlon has been my coach. He brings value, expertise, exceptional credentials, and a personal style that are next level. I hope these testimonials will find the right people and get them to join our community as well.

Super awesome equipment! It's a little more $ than other gyms, but feel it is worth the extra $. Despite the cost, It's getting busier now that people are catching on that it is the best gym around, hands down!

"The Mecca is the best gym in the Treasure Valley. The staff is always available to answer questions. The coaches go above and beyond to help people on their health journeys. The classes offered are a blast, and the gym equipment is way above par. If you’re looking for a local gym with everything, go check it out. Reading the testimonials made me go check it out so hopefully they change your mind as well!"

"Eric, the owner, was awesome! He showed his gym to me and he discussed the philosophy of his training and approach to fitness education. Altogether he's an intelligent and engaged owner/trainer who knows his stuff! What a great facility he has established and his reputation for delivering high-quality training is well known among the fitness community. MECCA ROCKS!"

"Coming from out of town, this was my first time visiting The Mecca Gym! I was extremely impressed with the facility, equipment, and my coach, Ryan Douglass. Because of his knowledge in the fitness world, he helped me understand the proper technique for certain exercises and the science behind it. I had a ton of fun learning and training from him and would 100% recommend this gym to anyone. When I’m back in town, I will for sure be scheduling another session! This will not be my last time here! Thanks, Mecca Gym!"
