🚨 **NEW LOCATION + 24-HOUR MEMBER ACCESS**

We’re officially in our new home inside the Port Charlotte Town Center Mall! 🎉 And YES, Rhino’s Gym is still open to members 24/7!

**IMPORTANT: All members MUST use our member access door located OUTSIDE the mall. You do not need to enter through the mall, and the inside mall entrance may be locked.

📍 Rhino’s Gym
Port Charlotte Town Center Mall
1441 S. Tamiami Trail, Unit 933
Port Charlotte, FL 33948

🎥 Watch the video for exactly how to find the 24-hour member door, but here’s the quick version:

1. Park near the mall entrance by Cody’s Roadhouse.
2. Facing the mall entrance, look to the **right** for the service bay.
3. You’ll see a sidewalk leading into the service bay area.
4. Follow the sidewalk until you see the door with the Rhino’s Gym sign.
5. Enter your access code like usual and you’re in! Be patient with the key system, it takes a second longer to process.

⏰ This door provides member/visitor access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The keypad is a little slower than our old one, so give it a second after entering your code.

**Remember: Don’t enter through the mall. Use the OUTSIDE member access door for 24/7 access.**

Save this Reel so you have the directions handy for your first trip to the new gym! 💪🦏

We have a new cable attachment: The Spreader Bar. This is a great tool to really burn out your triceps and work your back. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

Thank you Nick Benerakis - Powerlifting Coach for the push to get one!

Reverse Band Equipped Squats: First time back to straight bar squats since I hurt my pec/shoulder AND I got to do it in my full suit 🤓 Defjnitely needed to go lower, but the goal for today was to test my ROMs and mentally get back in the heavy squat game. It was a good time all around, but I’m beat up and exhausted now 😂

🚨 OKAY, WE’VE BEEN KEEPING A SECRET. 🚨
And considering how bad some of us are at keeping secrets, we’re honestly impressed we made it this long.

For a while now, you guys have been asking us for one thing:

MORE SPACE.

More room for equipment. More turf. More room for Strongman. More room to actually do all the ridiculous things we like doing at Rhino’s.

So… we’ve been working on something behind the scenes.

RHINO’S GYM IS MOVING. 🦏

And we’re moving into Port Charlotte Town Center.

Our new home is 6,400 square feet, roughly DOUBLE the space we have now.

And yes, before anyone panics:
WE WILL STILL HAVE 24-HOUR ACCESS.

You’ll be able to access Rhino’s from outside of the mall, just like the feral little 2 AM athletes you’ve always been. 😂

So what are we doing with all that extra room?

👀 The Strongman cage is COMING BACK, and it’ll house our deadlift and Olympic lifting platforms.

👀 We’re getting roughly DOUBLE the turf.
👀 The wheelbarrow is coming back.
👀 The yoke is coming back.
👀 The tire is coming back.
👀 One of our old back pieces is finally coming out of storage.
👀 We’re adding another leg piece.
👀 We’ll have a dedicated stretching area.
👀 We’ll have a changing room.
And…
👀 We’re getting a SkiErg.
Sorry, everyone. 😂

Our official move will happen September 11th and 12th, and we’ll be sharing a LOT more over the next couple of weeks as we finish getting the new gym ready.

We know everyone is going to want to know exactly where we are in the mall. Once our door magnet is installed, we’ll post a video showing you exactly where to find us and where you’ll enter for 24-hour access.

This move is happening because Rhino’s has grown, but more importantly, because you guys kept telling us what you wanted from your gym.

We listened.
Now we get to build it.
Welcome to the next Rhino’s Gym. 🦏💪

Bigger gym. More toys. Same weirdos.

The dumbbells were re-racked.

The clips were recovered.

The plates were reunited with their families.

Peace had finally returned to Rhino's Gym...
..or had it?

Every year, the wild 45-pound plate migrates away from its natural habitat.

Nobody knows why.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for donating and spending time helping fundraisers for our niece, Liala. It takes a special community to come together to make this young lady‘s dream come true to go to the Jr. Olympics. Liala is a very talented gymnast, but it’s her passion and dedication that makes her truly special. Thank you again!

We’ve been told our equipment can be intimidating…so here’s one of the many ways we are continuing to keep Rhino’s beginner-friendly.

If you look at some pieces of equipment you’ll see a sticker that says “Scan Me…To Learn How to Use…”

All you have to do is open your camera and scan the QR code. You’ll be immediately redirected to our exercise guide for that specific machine on our YouTube channel.

In these videos, Coach Rhino will walk you through how to use the equipment, adjust to work the best for your body and goals, and offer different variations if applicable.

And, as always, we are available to walk you through any piece of equipment that you’d like to learn more about. You can either let us know when you see us at the gym or contact us to set up a time and we will happily walk you through the equipment.

Stay strong out there!
