Gyms in Atlanta, Georgia

[Achillevs]

I have a friend who is moving to Atlanta, Georgia. Is there any weight rooms in Atlanta where she can go to learn how to squat, deadlift and clean? Preferably a gym with a powerlifting and/or olympic lifting profile and competeing members. She do not wish to start compete in any of these sports, but she wants to learn the excercises. Her goal is to grow a strong body. She do not believe in "disco gyms"/health clubs or any of these tanned PT:s in tiny tank tops; she wants a serious gym with experienced lifters who are skille enough and willing to teach her the appropriate technique for this type of excercises.

Best gyms I can suggest is World Gym in Forest Park,GA which is in Clayton County Ga and just south of Atlanta.

Metro Fitness is another because it has some professional athletes that frequent there a lot and it is off of Metropolitan Pkwy in SW Atlanta.
