I decided to join and I just finished signing up(breezy). I feel confident that this place will give me more of what I want. I need more access hours and this place is 24hr. It feels professional and I like that they give you a key fab instead of a door code.I need good energy from people who take their training seriously and so far I find it there. Service was top notch on two occasions. Got a free tour a couple weeks back. Staff is courteous and fun loving.

Perfect for people who want to move iron. No pilates or ranks of cardio here, but racks and benches with proper safeties, fully equipped deadlift platforms, and lots of chalk! As a twenty four hour untended gym, the weights were neatly organized, equipment properly stored, etc at 6am, so people care about the place, a good sign.

This is a great gym for power lifters, and general fitness. The owner is a great man, honest, and kind. Melton, a trainer, is absolutely amazing. He has transformed my husband in a safe manner. We couldn’t be happier about everything Iron Soul!

Straight forward gym without all the fancy features you might find elsewhere. If you want to be left alone and get stronger then come here. If you want to meet some great people and get tips on how to get better, come here. Yes, most of the weights and equipment isn’t pretty but at the end of the day, it all weighs the same as any other gym. Owners and staff are extremely helpful and won’t try to upsell you on anything.

Great gym. The staff is very professional and friendly. The equipment is well taken care of, and the gym itself is very clean. I also appreciated the great customer service. Anytime I emailed the gym, I received a quick response. I really enjoyed working out at Iron Soul and hope to find another gym like it after I move.

Great local power lifting gym. Friendly atmosphere. Open 24/7. Good community.

Awesome gym. Great staff.

Best Gym I ever experienced!!! the owner should consider making a Iron Soul Gym in Las Cruces they just have corporate gyms down there.... A gym like this would be Awesome in the city of crosses and a great part of the community!!

Good gym, good people that are down to get after it. I recommend

Best gym in Albuquerque! Great owner and amazing members. You get out of it what you put in, so if you want to get stronger you will. I recommend this gym to literally everyone

Gym is clean. This is my favorite gym.

Great atmosphere and friendly people

This is a great space. It specializes in nearly all methods of getting stronger. Very friendly environment that allows for lots of varied experience levels to workout and share space.

Sound gym. Sound people. Great environment.

They have everything you need, its very clean and the members are awesome!

People are really laid back and chill. Everyone is upbeat and ready to get their work! This is a serious gym and if youre to get the bag & lift real iron this is the place for lifters

Hands down the best drop-in gym in Albuquerque for my infrequent needs. Only $10 for a days worth of all the heavy metal you can move!

If you like to lift heavy, this is the place to go.

Good gym for the most part. I went here for less than a year. The owner, Eric, is cordial for the most part unless you bring up a safety concern, apparently. I brought up a safety concern to him and his immediate response was that it wasnt an issue and blew me off. I told him that somebody could get hurt and he responded that was why everybody signed waivers of liability. As an attorney that has written and litigated these waivers, I understood and explained that these waivers did not protect you from gross negligence claims, which can be proven by a failure to fix a known safety issue. He became cold and callous towards me after that, and did not address the safety issue in any way. I left a couple months later. Too bad, it was otherwise a decent gym. He also did not hesitate to boot me off his Facebook page as soon as I quit his gym, which seemed petty.

I worked out at Iron Soul for about 2.5 years before work made me relocate. Couldn’t ask for a better gym to build strength. Has everything you need with no frills or gimmicks. Aside from the great facility which is open 24/7/365, the staff and gym community made this place special. Endless strong friendly people who’ll let you pick their brains, critique form, and help when they can. You might think you’re strong, but go down to Iron Soul and get humbled. Would recommend to anyone who’s serious about building strength and improving their bodies.

Love the equipment and atmosphere. Heavy weights, punching bag, dead lift areas, huge tires, log bar. Cannot wait to make progress here.

Best staff, best everything. Place is like heaven

Great place to train. I love it

Best Gym in North and South America. And you dont get goofy, trashcan, losers trying to pose in the mirror or.the slime that pollutes other gyms.

LOVE THIS PLACE. All the weights and proper equipment you could ever imagine to get strong.Im able to come in and workout with no BS. Never have to wait for any of the equipment either since the gym has enough for everyone. There are very few and rare occasions where I had to wait my turn for something which was during peak hours.People are very respectful here. And management does an excellent job creating an environment that allows you to succeed and do your best in the gym. They are very understanding and certainly know how to take care of their customers.

Wonderful gym. Equipment is superb and KEPT UP. There is an abundance of racks. You can lift without being bothered, but other members will check form if you ask.

Great gym! Plenty of space to train!

Dropped in while traveling, and I felt right at home. Great equipment, friendly people, awesome music. This gym is the real deal.

This is a great gym. Me and my husband joined about 2 months ago and love it so far. Plenty of equipment, enough weights and space for everyone and its rarely ever busy. The owner as well as the other members are extremely polite and nice, not judgmental at all, and willing to give helpful tips and hints to newbies like me. Id highly recommend this gym to anyone whos interested in weight lifting. The price is also much better than any other real gym we could find in Albuquerque.

This gym has been a real eye opener to the fitness goals I didnt even know I wanted. I started here not knowing what I was doing and throughout all my workouts I have never once felt out of place. The people here are awesome and willing to help with anything you need. The owners are very genuine and kind people. Eric has been an amazing friend who is at the gym A LOT and never once hesitates with advice or support. Going to any gym can be intimidating for a newbie but speaking from my current experience I never thought any gym could be like this one. The equipment is perfect for what you need, very safe and in excellent shape. The people are what make this gym so amazing. Every time I walk into the gym I feel welcome and a part of the gym. If you train with the best you will be your best! Join this gym, you wont regret it.

Fantastic gym, great patronage of people who not only care about courtesy but are more than willing to jump in and help at a moments help. All the staff are super happy nice and helpful. Would recommend to anyone.

Best gym ever!!!!! Staff and owner are amazing and are so respectful to everyone. I lift and Im a female. Ive never felt uncomfortable with anyone and the owner and his wife couldnt be more respectful and sweet. HIGHLY recommend this gym to anyone whos honest about their life goals, workout AND anyone looking for a non-judgmental gym!!!!! Wont go anywhere else.

Worst gym, unprofessional staffs.

Powerlifting gym with tons of bars and equipment. Great owners and staff

Visiting ABQ and dropped in for a workout. Owner was extremely accommodating. Only about 3 other members were training as a stranger felt right at home. Dont be misled, this isnt planet fitness. People in this gym are there to work, its a very motivating environment. Along with the planet fitness comment this facility is designed for those wishing to challenge themselves, no fluff, no foo foo machines. Facility is clean, and well organized. Everything you need. Nothing you dont.

Best equipped gym Ive ever been to in multiple major metro areas. Nothing is down for more than a week ever and equipment is only the best. Plenty of room, 24/7 access and music and chalk on demand. Cant get much better than this.

Sick gym great management!

Ive worked out in many places but have recently began getting serious about GAINING strength and power in my routine. Working with a great coach and in a supportive atmosphere at Iron Soul has helped me to correct and perfect my form and begin to build strength by lifting with power and to my fullest potential. It has been challenging, but if youre serious about your workout this is the place to root some foundation.

Decided to stop by here to train on a cross-country road trip. Absolutely loved the place. Had an amazing facility and the people were amazing. The owner was a truly great guy, and made a point of speaking with me and even gave me a free gym tank top. If I lived in Albuquerque, this would be my gym, no questions asked.

This is a great, no-frills place to get in a good lift with good people. The community is supportive and pretty much bro-free. The owner (Eric) is very helpful with tips on technique, and Ive never had a problem with not being able to get access to a squat rack or a bench press. If you want a gym with barbells, weird strongman equipment, and couldnt care less about treadmills and other overpriced cardio equipment that unnecessarily drive up membership fees, this is the place for you.

The best gym in Albuquerque hands down! The environment is absolutely incredible and irreplaceable. Great staff that always keep the place clean! This is the gym you want to be at if you want to get bigger & stronger.

Great choice for any serious lifter. I was traveling through Albuquerque and hoping to get some heavy squats in instead of working out at a hotel gym. Iron souls is the answer. Great staff, every piece of equipment a serious lifter could want, and a great atmosphere where you can make noise without raising an eyebrow. It was also only $10 for a day pass.

Power lifting gym with great ownership and a friendly atmosphere

Best gym Ive ever been to in my life. Has all the necessary powerlifting equipment and everything else you need to get stronger

I was skeptical about this gym till I walked in and was kindly greeted by the gentleman at the front desk, his name is Smith I think? He was very welcoming and gave me a tour around the place and took his time explaining updates and renovations. We hit it off and we talked for like 20mins. Through out the tour, all the members kept interrupting us and praise Smith. They would run up and give him a high five, hugs and even pinch his butt, I was like ok........

Best Gym in Albuquerque. Eric the owner is very helpful and is always reinvesting in the gym. Very supportive of everyone from world class strength athletes to those that are just starting and looking for guidance.

Best gym in Albuquerque! People are friendly, the owner is amazing and motivating, equipment is always upgrading and top quality. Theres no where better to help you reach your lifting goals.

I came here with a friend who is a national record holder in powerlifting. Being my first experience with this type of gym I did not know what to expect, but the folks here were very receptive and gave me a great run through and explanation of some basic workouts. I have been going here ever since and always appreciate the tips I get from the staff and other gym members

This gym is awesome. Everything you need for any style of training. Great people. Great atmosphere. Great management. . . . . Anyone below that you see speaking evil of this gym have had bad experiences due to that fact that they were kicked out for being undesirable scumbags. This gym like any other experience, is what you make of it. The sky is the limit at IRON SOUL!

Visiting for work, day pass was super reasonable, cheap even. Plenty of strength equipment to get in and out quickly. Staff offered to show me around and answer any questions. Ill be back again.

Love my gym here made it my 2nd home ! Its small but perfect for the around the clock trainer ! They have great equipment updated its very clean inside always ! The vending machines are priced great ! And the staff and owner is very friendly and helpful always ! And the price is realy amazing for what you get out of it !

This is by far the best strength training facility in Albuquerque, and very likely the whole state. Everything you need to get stronger is here. The equipment is all in great condition and the people are truly supportive. Any level of strength athlete is welcome here and will never feel intimidated. The owner is easy to get a hold of and a fantastic resource. If you hate big box gyms filled with uncaring, unknowledgeable staff and unnecessary machines, you owe it to yourself to come to this gym. It is open to ANYONE who wants to get stronger. Ive been coming here for months and never had a better experience at a gym.

Basic but complete. No BS. Inspirational thrash metal. Perfect.

I own a gym myself, and have been a strength and conditioning coach for over 21 years. Iron Soul is one of the best gyms I’ve ever been to. If I lived in ABQ this is where I’d train. When I travel to ABQ, this is where I will train. Eric, the owner, is a great gym owner and a great man. His work ethic, integrity, and continent are second to none. And he’s a veteran, having served in combat in Iraq...that is a factor that should NOT be overlooked. Support veteran-owned businesses when you can. His level of service and commitment is of the highest level. Iron Soul is the place to train in Albuquerque.

I cant say enough great things about this place. I started with Iron Soul shortly after they opened and recently had to leave due to a job relocation. You will find a welcome environment and a variety of lifters from those just starting to record holding powerlifters. Ive found everyone here to be helpful and encouraging and the environment is conducive to anyone interested in working hard to achieve their goals. Eric is a great guy and genuinely interested in the results his lifters achieve. You seriously cant beat this place in terms of value, environment, and access. Now if I can only find something here in Phoenix that compares...

The best gym in town. 24/7 unlimited access. Has all the strength & powerlifting necessitiess. They even provide belts and lifting support gear.Eric the owner is geniune and makes you feel you belong. Serious lifters train here, but are very welcoming and helpful to beginners. The personal trainers are also helpful and I can tell they really push their clients to be the best.

Great gym for serious competitors and novice athletes. Owner is honest and very compensate about his members goals.

The only problem with this place is I spend too much time there. From newbies to national level athletes I make a new friend every time I train. Plenty of equipment and simple easy to follow gym rules.

Nice place! Lots of great equipment that you will not find in a normal commercial gym (duffalo bar, ssb, atlas stones, hip squat, and they even have a knee wrap roller). Very cool place...and lots of strong folks training there!

Been coming to this gym for a year and it is one of the best in town. They have great membership prices and the best thing is that its 24/7 and always looks clean.

Best gym in ABQ! The Strongest peoplein the Southwest area train here and everyone that walks through the dooris family. If you wanna get strong this is the only place to be!

Welcoming and professional environment; great for both your average joe or elite lifter. Eric and company really care about cultivating the right environment and it shows. Could not recommend more highly.

If you eat Sour Patch Kids and train at Iron Soul Gym youll get stronger and lift heavier! Its science!:) Seriously though, BEST GYM EVER! Eric and April (the owners) make my day, everyday! I wear my team shirt with pride and I tell everyone I know how obsessed I am!

Great power lifting gym Great atmosphere and a lot of knowledgeable lifters. Open 24/7 and great rates. Cant beat it!

This is the place to go if youre looking to lift. The clientele is awesome, it has all the weights a lifter needs, and Eric is super helpful. No more fighting for the one squat rack at Defined!

Ive never experienced a more friendly and supportive gym environment. Unlike commercial gyms du jour, Iron Soul is more of a community where strength knowledge runs deep and is freely distributed. Management is top notch and sets a superior example for the membership.These words from the Iron Soul website says it all: NO ONE WILL EVER BE INTIMIDATED HERE.

Im a newbie. Just been trying to get some little healthier and a little stronger. Its a great gym with very welcoming members and staff!

Best gym in tow. Spacious. Every equipment you can imagine

Seriously the best deal youre going to get for a powerlifting gym in Albuquerque! Wide range of specialized bars, 4 squat racks with 8 sets of bar hooks, resistance bands, chains, 4 bench presses. Oh and sufficient strongman equipment plus a Half rack and an Olympic powerlifting platform! For $35 a month?? Are you kidding???

This place is seriously amazing! It has everything you need to train for powerlifting, strongman, Olympic lifting, and cross training. It has plenty of amenities to cater to hardcore and casual trainees alike. Check this place out!

Perfect for beginners or people already in this world for years. I like how the owners treat everybody equally and if youre a creep, it is not tolerated here. Makes for a good environment and not having to worry that there are weirdos allowed to hang around.

This gym has all my strength training needs. Equipment is varied and useful. The owner brings in well known experts for seminars on powerlifting, at least quarterly. The membership fee is more than reasonable and the staff let you do what you want in a safe and reasonable manner. There are people at all levels of lifting and fitness goals and disciplines - powerlifting, strongman, even some body builders, and people looking to get fitter through strength training. Its not a class based gym, though regular training is available for a reasonable cost. They also sell powerlifting assessories like belts and sleeves. No shoes yet, to my knowledge.

An adequate facility owned by one of the most dishonest and vindictive men in Albuquerque. Go here if you absolutely must, but be wary of false advertising, people insulting you behind your back and every lie that drips from the owners mouth like so much drool. Youd be better off not going to the gym than going to a place like this.

Place is awesome! If you want to get strong and bigger, check it out! You will be satisfied!

Great staff, lots of equipment..serious trainers and cheap membership prices

BEST gym in NM. Owner is badass and really nice. They just moved to a bigger location. Spacious, lots of nice equipment, and nice gym members.

💪🏽Always powerful good💪🏽

Amazing gym! Great atmosphere! Love the smell of chalk and the clang of the weights!

Owner Eric is an awesome guy and Iron Soul itself is a testament to what a great gym should be. 10/10 would recommend to a friend 100%

This is the best powerlifting gym Ive ever been to, and Ive been to quite a few!They have many specialized bars: power, deadlift, squat, cambered, etc. Several deadlift platforms, power racks, Olympic lifting platforms, pound plates, kilo plates, bumper plates. Bands, chains, chalk, kettlebells, dumb bells up to 150 lbs. Its very easy to sign up and cancel, the monthly rate is super high-value at less than $40, and the members are positive and respectful. The owner is attentive and helpful. Its 24/7, good location, plenty of off-street parking. I have no shortage of great things to say about this gym.If you are into powerlifting, weightlifting, or strength training in general, this place is a no-brainer. The quality of ownership, equipment, and members easily exceeds any commercial gym.

This place is the best thing that’s ever happened to me, besides my daughter’s birth.

The strongest and best gym in New Mexico. Great atmosphere and amazing people.

Eric runs a top notch gym and the environment is perfect for people whonare serious about training and liftimg heavy. No egos or bs here

Owners really awesome! Excited to start working out here!

Solid gym. Friendly people. Excellent condition. Everything thats every frustrated you about the gym is probably a nonissue here.

Great gym for olympic style weightlifiting, Powerlifting, or body building

Super friendly enviroment, I never feel uncomfortable or out of place here. Someone is always willing to help you if you need it. Getting stronger everyday!!

HORRIBLE JUDGEMENTAL PLACE. The owners do not like or respect beginners, they are not willing to help or train. This is called judgement. A comment was made on a pic of a girl doing squats with a bar on her shoulders. The comment was Does this look good on me it was a complement to the girl working so hard. However the owner did not see it that way and kicked the member out of the gym and re-voked his membership. Do not join this gym, do not give them your money.

Great gym ever! Open 24/7, open all 365 days

Great gym with high quality equipment. If you are into strongman or powerlifting, this is your gym.

Short: Iron soul is the best gym ever!Medium: I played rugby, fitness is critical. Ive been to many gyms all over the world. Iron soul is the best gym ever period.Long: My team was sponsored by iron soul so I joined (Ask about corporate deals/they also have coaches and can teach you how to lift). Iron Soul is always open and all members receive a key, but it is only staffed at certain hours. There is a really positive and welcoming atmosphere and every other member Ive met is friendly and always willing to teach me and help me with form and lifting technique. Before I joined, I asked my friend on my team if they had kettle bells at Iron Soul. He informed Eric, the owner (whom is most friendly and knowledgeable and enthusiastic about powerlifting) and he purchased kettlebells that day before my first visit! There are many bars that I myself dont use, but someone at the gym will be able to tell you what they are for and how to use them properly, a sled and a turf track for it, many free weights ranging up so I that I dont use them for my workouts,  there are atlas stones  (which are heaps of fun), multiple deadlift platforms, squat racks, and bench presses (Ive never seen them all occupied at once). If youre in Albuquerque and want to join a gym or you love powerlifting and want to lift at an incredible powerlifting gym, you have to go to Iron Soul.

Best gym i have ever been too!

Great place for your powerlifting needs

Badass gym with badass folks.

Great self defense class.

A great place to lift! The equipment is superior!!

Best gym ever

Eric is friendly, knowledgeable, old school gym.

Great gym. No BS.

Best barbell gym in ABQ
