"I'm excited to be able to bring UFC-style training to my home state in the form of our UFC Gym," Edgar said. UFC has been a big part of my life for more than a decade and having the opportunity to share my dedication to fitness and training with my community has been a lifelong dream."

The 25,000 square-foot signature facility will feature a 30-foot Octagon®, top-of-the-line strength training and cardio machines, battle ropes, agility ladders, bag room, Brazilian jiu-jitsu studio and other functional training equipment for dynamic workouts.

A native of Toms River, Edgar is one of the most decorated athletes in UFC history and currently competes as the no. 2 ranked contender in the featherweight division.

“Frankie Edgar epitomizes Jersey Strong as a champion, a warrior and a gentleman,” Work Out World owner Stephen Roma, Sr. said. It’s an awesome opportunity for us to partner with Frankie and open this gym.”
