“Full Plate is an awesome place to workout. I’ve been going for 3-4 months now, and I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. When you join they make a plan specific to your strengths and weakness (which they assess at the start). The trainers here are very very knowledgeable and always willing to modify your workout to your specific needs at the time….”
