THE DOG WHO STARTED IT ALL

Rambo Barbell was named after our owner and coach’s lovable pup, Rambo. Rambo is welcoming, fun, and full of energy - all of the things we wanted in our barbell club!

​

WE HAVE THE KNOW-HOW

Rambo Barbell is owned and run by Coach Jonathan Meade. Jonathan has a Masters in Kinesiology from The University of Georgia and is a USAW coach, USAPL coach, and NSCA-CSCS. If there’s a lifting certification out there, Jonathan probably has it. All of that education paired with a love for strength sports and an approachable, friendly personality makes him one of the best coaches in Atlanta (not to mention, the long list of results he's helped our lifters over the year achieve!). Don’t believe us? Head over to the Team Rambo page to hear from our members or schedule some time to meet with Coach Jonathan in person!
