Taryn Gibson, Owner and Coach
Taryn became interested in Olympic weightlifting after her daughter began lifting here at Greenville Weightlifting. She was previously involved with CrossFit, but realized that Olympic lifting was her favorite part of it!
In late 2022, she became the general manager of Greenville Weightlifting, and got her USAW L1 certification. In October 2023, she and Miranda became the owners of Greenville Weightlifting, and they are looking forward to creating a welcoming environment for both new and experienced lifters. Taryn completed her USAW Level 2 coaching certification in January 2025.
In her time away from the gym, Taryn is a board certified lactation consultant and owns Clever Baby Holistic Feeding and Parenting Support in Spartanburg and Greenville, SC. She also is the director of Day Before the Rainbow Rescue and Adoption—and will always ask you to foster a puppy!
Taryn enjoys working on her Jeeps and taking them offroading when she has a bit of free time.
Harrison Frye, Coach
Harrison became interested in Olympic weightlifting after college. Harrison played Division 1 golf at both Coastal Carolina University and Wofford College. He found that after college, he needed a different sport on which to focus. He enjoyed the weightlifting he had done under his strength and conditioning coaches in college, so he decided to try Olympic lifting. Harrison says that his main focus is the technical side of weightlifting. Harrison has competed in USAW U25 nationals and various other local competitions.
When Harrison is not at work or the gym, he enjoys working on his truck—a ‘97 F250.
