Rebel Strength and Rowhouse

Best gym in Asheville....Adam and Jordan know their stuff and work with you where your fitness level is....

After an impulse purchase of a row machine in a last ditch attempt to find a relationship with exercise that this aging, overweight, out of shapengal could maintain, I quickly realized that I had no clue what I was doing. A quick google search for a row studio near me had me giving Rebel Strength and Rowhouse a call. Adam assisted me in signing up for the Concept class, in which he taught the correct use and form for the row machine, gave me great insight into the various row lingo I'd read online and assigned homework so I have a real place to start. He broke it down in layman's terms for me, which is exactly what I needed. His passion for fitness is obvious. Highly recommend this rowhouse and Adam to anyone, regardless of your fitness level.

Traveling cross-country while trying to complete the Concept II Holiday erg challenge isn't a very good idea. But thanks to Rebel Row, our two-day stay in Asheville resulted in two 11K pieces on their excellent, well-maintained Concept IIs. It was a true pleasure to erg there--which is saying a lot because it IS erging. Still, Adam's flexibility and friendliness in helping us achieve our goals was very much appreciated. What a great gym! Every city should have a Rebel Row.

My experience here has been exceptional. The workout is invigorating and intense, but easily scalable by your own skill and effort. Great, approachable culture, too; I felt welcomed both as someone who's never rowed, and as someone who's been on a bit of an exercise hiatus. Adam is a fantastic coach who always hits that sweet spot between challenge and punishment, and his philosophy on sustainable exercise means each class is interesting and dynamic, making it fun and easy to stick with. This gem of a gym is highly, highly recommended.
