AREA 56 was established in 2013.  The gym’s original location was inside of two storage units  (these units were numbered #5 and #6). Six years and two moves later the gym now occupies a 3200 sq ft facility that houses some of the most unique equipment in the Johnstown, PA  area. 
The gym is owned and operated by Tyler Petro and Sarah Connors-Petro. This husband and wife team have an extensive athletic background including collegiate football, strength sports, bodybuilding, yoga and road/trail racing. They also hold numerous well respected certifications and have a combined 15+ years experience in training and coaching. 
“We hold the ability to educate our clientele in high regard and it is the foundation of our business.”- Tyler & Sarah
