One of the better gyms in the area if you're into strength training. Tons of power racks, deadlift platforms, machines, and free weights. It being a 24/7 is also a plus. No complaints!

This is exactly the type of gym we needed in this neighborhood. I love that is 24/7. Always a good experience. I’d tell you to come join but I don’t want all the machines to be taken when I go 🤣 ! Insane amount of squat racks.

No phones, no one responds to emails -nothing…. I’ve been trying to cancel my membership for MONTHS to no avail. I’ve contacted my bank several times for disputes because of it. I was just charged AGAIN after thinking I’d blocked this company from charging me. Unbelievable.

Affordable gym. That’s it. No platforms are leveled. No squat rack is bolted to the floor. Lots of padding either just slips off of machines or badly needs replaced for months. Lots of corners cut as far as the layout. Just lazy, thoughtless placement of equipment. Unfinished assembly of racks and platforms. Only bars suited for Olympic lifts are 35lb, but are standard diameter. Confusing what that’s even made for. The place was clearly outfitted by people that have never trained competitively. There’s a punching bag and a trampoline in the middle of the area where heavy barbell lifts are done. Staff does nothing about ignorant members who play music out loud. They just complain about them, to members. Weird environment overall. You definitely don’t get anything more than what you pay for at this place. Probably less.

Edit: they ordered weights for me!! :)

Great gym with great members. It’s a reasonable price for 24/7 access and decent equipment. I wish they had 7.5, 12.5 and 17.5 lb dumbbells. I think only having 5-10-15-20 is really not catering to female members who may need to increase in smaller increments. Only other feedback is that when they first opened everything was clean but now I haven’t seen clean bathrooms for a few months. That being said it really is a welcoming gym and the best option by far in the area.

Unbelievable value and management.

I've been lifting for eleven years and powerlifting for four. This second location of Iron Works has almost a dozen squat racks, many deadlift platforms, true power bars and specialty bars, calibrated plates, strongman equipment, a plethora of machines (selectorized and plate loaded), and a ton of cardio options.

The gym is open to members 24/7 and staff and management are fantastic. They are highly receptive to feedback and regularly improve the gym. The gym itself is clean, new, well-ventilated, and has high ceilings (contributing to an open feeling).

Highly recommend you check it out.

Whenever I go it’s closed, does anyone know why?

I’m very disappointed!!! I registered online and I have come twice and the gym to complete my registration but both times I have found it closed and there is no staff who attends as it is mentioned online.. really disappointing.

Great gym to workout at! New equipment lots of platforms and squat racks so you’re hardly ever waiting. If you’re looking to train for a hyrox event, powerlifting, strongman, and bodybuilding they have almost everything needed to include any style of training. The staff is very friendly and the gym is kept very clean. The price is worth it for the location and 24/7 access and no contract is a huge perk. Highly recommend this gym!

Been coming here for a couple months now and I’ve really been enjoying it. It’s always pretty clean, staff and owners seem really nice, and they have a huge selection of different equipment. If something breaks they fix it relatively fast and seems like they upgrade stuff from time to time already. I’ve liked coming here and looking forward to what the gym becomes over there next couple months

Its the best gym I ever been! Its never crowded, no weird people, always quiet and peaceful, you only hear the weights dropping and that’s all that matters. All equipments brand new, place is always spotless clean, I hope this place stays this way forever!

I must say this is by far the best gym I've ever been a part of. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always greeting me with a smile. While I am sad to leave this gym due to its distance from my new home, I cannot deny the quality of the experience I have had here.
