What We Offer

LIFT — Semi-Private Personal Training

Hands-on training to maximize results

LIFT is a strength-based program focusing on squat, bench, and deadlift with related mobility, stability, and strength movements. The sessions are super small (2-6 people) so you get all the benefits of personal training, but with a more flexible schedule and price point.

1-on-1 Personal Training

Individual attention to fast-track your personal goals

All sessions are 1 hour and personalized to your individual needs and interests. We offer coaching in powerlifting, strongman, Olympic-style weightlifting, sport-specific performance training, kettlebell training, and general fitness. Available in single sessions, 3-pack sessions, or weekly sessions (1-4 days per week).

Andrea M.

“Great gym with awesome coaches and friends!”

Sasha O.

“Everyone from the owners to the coaches to the fellow members are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. There is an environment here where beginners and advanced athletes work side by side, and there are a wide variety of sports & goals represented. In over 20 years of weight training, this is my favorite gym so far.”

Ben S.

“I've been lifting for 20+ years but jumping from program to program led to inconsistent results, strength imbalances and injuries because of poor form and moving too fast. In the LIFT program I've gotten stronger, more disciplined and developed a love of powerlifting.”

Keith

“I highly recommend PPG for anyone seeking an alternative to box gyms. As a regular member of the Fit afternoon class I find a variety of training and coaching support that many other facilities don’t offer. PPG also has a comfortable atmosphere where you always feel welcome with custom workouts that always motivate.”

Steve M.

“I would've never expected to find such an awesome diverse gym nestled in an industrial park, geared toward exactly what I was looking for!! The community is welcoming and friendly here. There's a range of equipment here for HIIT-style training, Strongman, Weightlifting, and Bodybuilding. My favorite part is that they are open all day so I can drop in to pump some iron on my own schedule.”

Richard U.

“By far one of the best gyms in the area! Friendly and knowledgeable staff with tons of equipment. I would highly recommend.”

Rob I.

“I started going here about 2 months ago to get back into shape and I'm addicted. Everything is seriously perfect from the actual gym itself, equipment, amount of people there (you don't have to wait for anything), the personal coaching you get is outstanding. And there are just a ton of cool people who go here. I'll seriously never go back to the YMCA again, love this place!”

Chris L.

“I've been a member of the gym for 6 months now and I'm faster, stronger, and my mobility has improved. Katie is the best trainer in Delco. She helped me to redefine my work capacity. I recommend this gym to everyone.”

Val

“Fantastic gym! Has a great variety of weightlifting/powerlifting/strongman stuff. Especially love the fact that they have Eleiko bars for Weightlifting - haven't found another place with equipment this good!”

Lawrence L.

“The best gym I've ever been to! Top of the line equipment (i.e Eleiko Weightlifting Bars, Pendlay Bumper plates, Westside Power bars, etc). On top of that, all of the members and staff are awesome people and create a great training environment.”

Alex Y.

“You’ll love the way you feel. It’s going to make you a better parent, a better spouse, a better employee. At least that’s what it does for me.”

Katie Feeley

Katie Feeley

Owner & Coach (she/her)

A lifelong athlete, Katie grew up playing softball and volleyball and running around with the neighborhood kids. Despite always being active and working in gyms since 2005, she never anticipated a career in fitness. While working on a Bachelor’s degree in Political Communication at The George Washington University, Katie was introduced to rock climbing. She continued rock climbing after college, which led her to both weightlifting and her future husband (and co-owner of Power Plant Gym). After deciding that politics was not her thing, Katie worked various jobs including positions at a globo gym, a bookstore, and an environmental non-profit. Eventually she realized that her passion was truly in strength training and fitness, so she left her desk job in 2012 to become a full-time personal trainer. Katie is infinitely enthusiastic about getting stronger herself and introducing literally everyone to strength training.

Katie has actively trained for and competed in powerlifting, strong(wo)man, CrossFit, and Olympic-style weightlifting. She currently competes in multiple strength disciplines, coaches a team of badass ladies (and guys too!) in strongman and powerlifting (#katiesladies), works with personal training clients, and teaches LIFT sessions and FIT classes.

Katie is a strength coach for six collegiate teams: women's basketball, lacrosse, and softball at Widener University; women's basketball at Jefferson University; and men's and women's volleyball at Neumann University. Katie is also an adjunct professor of physical education at Widener University.

The rest is history.

After a brief stint competing in CrossFit, Brian has since focused primarily on Olympic-style weightlifting. He has taught Olympic weightlifting seminars at area gyms since 2012.

• AUTHENTICITY – We are who we say we are. We celebrate diversity, quirkiness, and honesty. We encourage you to find and be the best version of your authentic self.
