About Girls who Lift HQ
Girls who Lift HQ is a women's strength and powerlifting gym in Oakleigh South, built for those who want to get genuinely strong in a space designed around them. Far from the intimidating corner of a big-box gym, it is a focused training environment where barbells, squat racks and bench presses are the norm and where lifting heavy is celebrated rather than treated as unusual.
The HQ leans into small-group coaching, so sessions stay personal and technique-led. Whether you are chasing a first competition platform, returning to the barbell after pregnancy, or simply learning to lift with confidence, the emphasis is on coaching that adapts to where you are. Members consistently highlight an approachable, knowledgeable atmosphere that flexes around individual goals and life stages.
This is a community as much as a gym, a place where women support one another through PBs, comp prep and the everyday wins. For anyone in Melbourne's south-east who wants serious strength training without the ego, Girls who Lift HQ offers an encouraging, expertise-driven home for the barbell.
