Our Story: Where Art Meets Strength

STABL Gym was born from a simple idea — Train with Control. 

As an art teacher and fitness trainer for over 25 years, I’ve always wanted to add something meaningful to the fitness world. I’ve spent almost three decades helping people move better, train smarter, and build real, functional strength. Over time, I began to see how creativity and movement could connect — how the design of a tool could change the way we train.

More than 15 years ago, I teamed up with my dad in his workshop to bring an idea to life. I envisioned a stable surface for bodyweight movements that could smoothly transition clients through superset and circuit-style training. My dad, a skilled craftsman, built the first set of triangular bases — and just like that, the foundation of STABL Gym was created.

At first, we pinned the bar to stay still. But one day, when the bar was left loose and began to swivel, something unexpected happened — and it changed everything. Suddenly, every rep demanded total control. You had to move slowly to keep the triangles stable. Movements like curls, presses, and rows became a challenge in focus and precision. The bar forced perfect tempo and time under tension, and I realized this was more than just equipment — it was a system that teaches control through instability.

For years, I used the prototype with clients, knowing how effective it was. But life got busy, and the idea sat quietly in the background — until now. After over a decade of thinking, testing, and refining, I finally took the leap to share STABL Gym with the world.

Today, every STABL Gym is crafted in the USA with pride and purpose. I work with a local welder here in Connecticut, who builds each triangular base with precision. I personally paint the triangles and assemble the bars myself from durable steel pipe. The decals are even made by a fellow phys. ed. colleague, and I personally test each unit to ensure it meets my standards before packaging and shipping it out.

No gimmicks. No plastic. No mass production made in China.
Just handcrafted quality and purposeful design.

From the first conversation with my dad in that small workshop to now collaborating with trainers and athletes who believe in STABL Gym, this has been a very rewarding experience— one built on creativity, family, and the pursuit of better training.

Why STABL Gym Stands Out

STABL Gym is more than just equipment — it’s a complete training experience. Built around a triangular base system, STABL Gym challenges your body like no other setup. Every movement requires control, focus, and balance, engaging more muscles and improving coordination while building strength.

  • Handcrafted Quality: Unlike mass-produced equipment, every STABL Gym unit is hand-built and assembled, aligned, and tested by the creator himself to ensure the perfect feel, motion, and resistance you expect from professional-grade training gear. Every triangle is welded in the USA by a local craftsman, ensuring unmatched durability and precision.
  • Innovative Design: The swiveling bar system adapts to your speed, helping you slow down your reps for perfect time under tension, maximizing strength gains safely.
  • Versatility: From push-ups and dips to weighted exercises, STABL Gym lets you train your whole body with one compact, professional-grade system.

Performance-Focused: Built for athletes, enthusiasts, and anyone serious about results, STABL Gym turns every rep into a controlled, effective workout.
