"I said I wasn't going to tell stories" My man, you can't say that after telling us you have dumbbells that were made in Folson Prison! We need to hear that story.
cardio is the healthiest form of exercise and 99% of gym goers aren't going to become jacked and strong. im sure there are some specialized gyms near you
Hey hi! Saw your video on when you told us how you started your own gym (and how much it costed you). You inspired me, and by mid 2021 i will open mine! I've been fascinated by strengh since i was young. I got a good job with a good revenue but is not my passion. I will save till i feel safe enough to start, which should be by mid 2021. THANKS i feel like i now have a goal thanks to you!
Been following you since 2015, oh man I'm so proud of you. Feels like we are growing together. Someday I'll travel to Sacramento (I'm from india) and visit your gym that I've only seen in video.
Iron Addicts Gym is pretty awesome with world champion powerlifter C.T. Fletcher. Of course it was more youtube funded. What makes Alan's gym so special is that he worked especially hard to put his gyms together with pure hardwork and earned money, not really funded by youtube and fans. This guy is the real deal, non-celebrity guy that made his dreams come true the way most people ignore. Very pure.
Painkiller sounding in the background. LITERALLY my FAVORITE song for training with heavy (AF) weight. You are a proper Gym owner. Gym music truly sucks EVERYWHERE.
Loving the build out Alan! Talk about an extremely well stocked, versatile training facility. Very inspiring to see a young man operating with such professionalism and growing so much in the strength industry!
Brother, I have watched you struggle from when you started and to see how far you have come along the way, brought tears to my eyes. I am so happy for you and I want you to know that I aspire to be just like you brother. Love from Malaysia.
I’ve been following you for a few years now and it’s amazing to see how much you’ve grown and how much your gym has grown. It’s not possible to have as much respect and admiration for you ask I do currently
Vision + Desire + Dedication + hard work and willingness to learn + an awesome beard = Untamed Strength , another American success story! Congrats Allen!
Yo Alan, I just want to say that I have been following you for 3 years and you have been a great inspiration! For powerlifting, strong man, and overall fitness you motivate me every time I see your vids! Keep up the work on growing the gym and I hope to visit the gym one day 💪🏽
Alan thank you for your service. Thanks for making a channel that’s simple and straightforward without all the fluff. Wish I could train with you. Congratulations on the new gym.
@@dragos-andreidascalu4566 I still got my LA Fitness membership. $20/month doesn't break the bank. I usually go once a week. Usually to deadlift. You know. To piss off the yoga class and so people can hear us in the grocery store below connected to the building. Plus I have known a few instructors and a couple others people for a decade so it's a social call at times.
I’m so proud and happy for Alan! Been following for a very long time! Still haven’t had the time to go to untamed strength cause I live in SoCal, but keep up the good work! And keep thriving!
I’ve gotta say it’s been great seeing how far you’ve come. I started watching your channel in your original location, and seeing the expansions you’ve made, the knowledge you’ve gained and shared and the amazing gym you’ve built is truly impressive, congratulations! I hope to visit your gym one day.
Really awesome Alan, I'm so glad you have been able to grow your passion. You're a wonderful asset to the strength world and I'm glad I can call you my friend.
I would suggest adding a back stop to your loading shelf! If someone loads a keg sideways, it may roll off and smash that glass behind it! The gym looks great!! Be strong and courageous!
Hey Alan! Nice job, great place. One suggestion : you may want to put some kind of a small safety wall on that shelf, so you don't get the glass window and door smashed. Keep up the good work!
My gym is surprisingly well equipped (used to be mostly classes and machines for the moderate gym goes but now has tires, yokes, farmers handles, logs etc) but to train at Untamed Strength is a dream. Definitely on my bucket list! It's a bit far away from Sweden though :)
Really great to see your hard work and dedication paying, you've come such a long way since I started watching your videos, and it seems like you deserve every success. I would love to have access to a facility with an owner/instructor who is as thoughtful and accommodating to members as you seem to be, besides having all the knowledge and experience to share. If I get over to the States, this place will be right on top of my list of places to visit. Many thanks for all the information you share on your channel, I have no doubt my lifts and training successes are in part due to stuff I've learned over here.
Great stuff man, I wish I lived in the area, I'd join ASAP. Love you for your intelligent, no BS approach and hard work. Great vids, keep up the good work. Much love from CROATIA.
Man i really ought to leave my lame commercial gym and get into a real badass gym like this... perhaps im not worthy to be in such an kickass environment like what you got there, Id love to see it in person, one of these days ill upgrade until then i must keep on keeping on and remember Train Untamedughhhh! Thanks Untamed Strength this channel is the balls
The 17 persons who disliked this video must have some serious issues with themselves. Alan, the gym looks awesome! If I lived at your part of the world, your gym would be my first choise to work out at!
Probably an annoying question, Alan, but I got interested in strength training and went with starting strength. It's been 4 months now and my lifts have all stalled. I'm obese, so my strategy going in was to focus on strength for 6 months, than focus on weight loss the other 6 months (I signed up for a year at my gym). I noticed that my strength gains, numbers, weren't improving at the same rate they were when I had tried lifting for 2 months 3 years ago, when I only weighed 145lbs at 5'7". At that time it only took me 2 months to get to the lifts that it has taken me 4 moths to achieve this time around (Im currently 211lbs). I started getting knee pain, which I resolved, in part, thanks to your tutorials, and learned it was a form issue, but decided I should diet down in hope of preventing injury. I'm sure my diet is to blame for the lack of progress. I count my calories and my macros, I eat the right foods, but I'm only eating 1500kcals/day. Is there any advice and what I can do to increase strength while losing fat? I'm a bit impatient when it comes to the scale so I tend to over work myself in the cardio department, but my recovery for my workouts are overnight, so I don't know if it's a nutrition problem, or just fatigue/cns over-stimulation. I do sleep a lot after workouts, like 10 hours and am still pretty tired throughout the day following workouts (despite not being sore). Do I break up my lifts and cardio sessions into separate days and just hit the gym more frequently, with 1 or 2 fewer rest days, increase my calories, or just commit to either strength gains or fat loss? I'm sure these questions get asked a lot, so I apologies if reading this is annoying.
"I said I wasn't going to tell stories" My man, you can't say that after telling us you have dumbbells that were made in Folson Prison! We need to hear that story.
Man, they must have been seriously uncomfortable to "smuggle" out of there...
Kris Arnold 😂😂😂
The Man in Black, would be proud!
Look for the gym tour on Untamed strength 2.0. He told that story there.
Derek Espinosa you’re a true fan! That’s awesome and thank you
Legends say that yellow t-shirt guy in the back is still doing pull-ups
He looked confused so he just started swinging around.
Bushmaster 6, he’s just doing core work. Kinda sloppy but not confused or swinging around.
Pull-ups are the best imo, especially if you're fat.
His shorts are yellow, not his shirt.
@gaylord like you can do pull ups any better buddy! Can't tell me how todo pull ups when you don't even leave the house!
Now this is how a dream gym looks like. Meanwhile my gym has 5 curl machines and one squat rack with missing safety pins
@@Knitspook our gym has 2 curl machines
absurdpizza 7818 he meant it as a joke (5 curl machines and one curl rack*)
My gym also has only 1 squat rack, luckily i am the only one who does barbell squats. Others do it with smith machine
you don't need safety pins on a curl rack
Hùng Phạm smith machine squats make my back feel disgusting
Cardio section has two bikes.
Gym i’m going to has an entire floor dedicated to treadmills, and stairclimbers.
And tehy're always empty and people gotta wait for squat racks
You gym is for sisys
K Tp aka gerbil gym
Planet Fitness
cardio is the healthiest form of exercise and 99% of gym goers aren't going to become jacked and strong. im sure there are some specialized gyms near you
So jealous that we don’t have any gyms like this near me
Joe Gengarelly open one
The market dictates these things.
@@williamanderson784 yes because it's easy
The reason I love your gym, is it has a home gym feel, but with actual gym equipment.
...and heavy metal.
I would like, but you’re at 69 likes.
Untamed Strength, the place where the Strong get Stronger
And the weak get stronger. Win win for everyone
And the Stronger get Strongerest
@@michaelpierson982 And the strongerest get strongerester
@@thomasstaffer Do you happen to know the time frame between Strongerest to Strongerester, that the Strongerestering begins to take place?
Moar strong! Moar strong!

Nice one bro, always good to see the community get stronger, literally!
make sure it has a niche or targeted audience. also, what will you make it about?
That’s awesome bro, It has been a dream of mine for a long time to open my very own gym
Awesome to see this place growing, def on my list of gyms I want to visit.
“Right here we have our cardio section” - more like a cardio nook dude 😂😂😂
This is our famous 1m x 1m square of cardio. Our members like to do some running on the spot for their warmups
@@melsoro7311 "Here's a skipping rope, there's a parking lot, have fun."
When there are more logs than cardio machines you know the type of gym you are in.
@@NandortheRelentless Yeah but it's not good for burning alot of calories since you get exhausted easily
A concept 2 is all you need and more. Those machines are hell
I wish I could train there, the atmosphere and music choices are perfect. Wrong side of the country sadly.
Wrong side of the planet for me soooo
Me too but I'm on the other side of the continent lol
Aanadir Bloodblade
I’m too far north in Alaska 🤒🤒

Sadly wrong side of the solar system for me

I remember the vid posted when the Troy plates were delivered...
Congrats, Thrall, on the personal and professional growth.
The only thing missing is a barber shop and grocery store!
*Untamed haircuts*
And
*Untamed supermarket*
Capitalize on this idea Alan!!!
Untamed Foods
With the beard, don’t think a barbershop is a good idea
I started to subscribe to this channel when the gym was the size of my bathroom.
You have come far Alan... Nice job.😊💪
Painkiller sounding in the background. LITERALLY my FAVORITE song for training with heavy (AF) weight. You are a proper Gym owner. Gym music truly sucks EVERYWHERE.
Not only that, but there was some Metal Church going on too! If I ever find myself in Sacramento, I'm definitely coming to visit!

I NEED to clone your gym .Its like heaven for your muscle
So fucking jealous right now. This is like a temple for me. Powerlifting stuff, strongman stuff and old skool metal playlists. Killer stuff brother!
AWESOME GYM..!!! CONGRATULATIONS...!!! 🤘🏼😎👍🏼 LOVE THE METAL POSTERS ON THE WALL...
Alan thank you for your service. Thanks for making a channel that’s simple and straightforward without all the fluff. Wish I could train with you. Congratulations on the new gym.
Painkiller blasting through the speakers and a Testament banner on the wall!!! My kinda gym!
Congratulations on the bigger space brother! Wish I lived close by to check it out
Your Sabaton poster in the background gives me great joy.
Congratulations Alan! I’m happy your hard work has realized your ideas and ambitions.
I really hope your gym goers train in every of these mouth-watering implements.
wish there were something like this where i live, aint even a powerlifting gym here. This looks amazing.
Congrats on the expansion Alan. You have come a long way since the garage days and still have that first rack. Love it.
For the strongman section make a portal gate like the hyperbolic time chamber!
Untamed Strength : 5 Benches.
My Local Gym : 1 Bench.
Help
Mine only has one. In all fairness my gym is in my garage.
@Wild Bill well the PUBLIC gym i go to is motherfucking small and packed in the rush hours, its survival in that bitch i swear bro 😂😂😂

Muscleworks Orpington your best bet, none of this good strongman shit tho
Iamcool Dunno bulldogs gym?
YES! Started from nothing, now as high as it gets, and still growing. All my love to you Alan
PLEASE give us story time Alan! Gym looks awesome 👍
Congratulations on the expansion!!! Haven't seen some of your videos but glad this came across my feed.
You've got a natural god-given storytelling talent Alan, don't ever stop.
I’m so proud and happy for Alan! Been following for a very long time! Still haven’t had the time to go to untamed strength cause I live in SoCal, but keep up the good work! And keep thriving!
Wow this is excellent. You have come a long way in a relatively short amount of time. All of that hard work and focus has really paid off.
2:30 they start playing Drag the Waters by Pantera... damn this gym is so legit I wish I lived close enough to go there :'(
I’ve been trying to figure out what song that was for the past month.
@@grim_raider_1812 gotchu bro. That whole album goes hard as frick
Congrats on the expansion man! I took a lot of tips from your videos over the years and implemented them in the gym my wife and I opened in NC.
Me: hey Alan, how many people could realistically train at the same time in Untamed Strength 3.5?
Alan: yes
Making me wish I lived in Sacramento man. Gym looks fucking awesome
Good for you Alan! So nice to see you expand and your gym doing well! You deserve and earned it! Stay after it man!
Yellow shorts getting his 15 minute of fame for those pull ups
Very clean too.

When your gym makes gains
WOW! Congratulations on the success of UT 3.0 and it's brother UT 3.5!!!
Absolutely awesome dude, fair play to you for building an amazing gym from nothing, respect!
Congrats on the expansion! I was at 3.0 about a year and half ago and you taught me how to low bar squat, it was a good time for sure.
I’m moving to North Rancho Cordova in 2 months and I found out this place is 10-15 mins away from my place. I can’t wait to try this gym out!
Really awesome Alan, I'm so glad you have been able to grow your passion. You're a wonderful asset to the strength world and I'm glad I can call you my friend.
Where's the calf raise machine Alan?
I would suggest adding a back stop to your loading shelf! If someone loads a keg sideways, it may roll off and smash that glass behind it!
The gym looks great!!
Be strong and courageous!
Hey Alan! Nice job, great place. One suggestion : you may want to put some kind of a small safety wall on that shelf, so you don't get the glass window and door smashed. Keep up the good work!
What a great gym... I love your story Alan... New fan....
skipped over the Rogue Belt Squat! very awesome gym, hope to come visit someday!

I would love to hear more stories of the less conventional equipment you’ve picked up over the years
