The Best Olympic Weightlifting Gym in Toronto

646 Weightlifting isn’t just a gym—it’s a dedicated Olympic weightlifting community built for lifters who want expert coaching, high-level programming, and a focused training environment. Unlike commercial gyms, we provide specialized coaching in snatch, clean & jerk, and strength development, ensuring every lifter gets the technical feedback and structured progressions they need to improve. Whether you’re a beginner or a competitive athlete, you’ll train in a supportive space designed for serious lifting.

The name 646 comes from Olympic weightlifting competitions, where athletes have six total attempts (three snatch, three clean & jerk). Going “six for six” means successfully completing all lifts—a standard of excellence we bring to our coaching and training.

No experience? No problem! Our Foundations Program is designed for beginners to learn proper technique, movement mechanics, and safe lifting progressions before joining our Olympic Weightlifting classes.
