Visited on 5/10/21, called for a day pass very early in the morning. Was allowed to access the gym before it was staffed, guy was super helpful & nice.. Gear & equipment is great, excellent bars, plates, machine selection. If youre doing any PL/Oly/BB work, its a great place to train. Only 10 dollars for a day pass, excellent deal.
I called At least 18 hours in advance to set up a meeting and a tour through the facility. Not only did no one show up, I called and left a voicemail and I did not get one response or a call back at any point. Still to this day have not received a callback from the facility. Would’ve appreciated a bit more professionalism And communication. Or any communication at all.
Iron Will Gym is awesome! I was in Virginia during a holiday trip and the experience was amazing! I am a high level athlete, so finding a gym with the right equipment is tough. The owner Will is super nice to clients and does his best to give each member the access they need. This gym has super nice Rogue bars, equipment, and platforms! I wish I could train here everyday!
Will is the best! Go see him
Honestly one of the best gyms in Charlottesville. What it lacks in size, compared to other facilities, it makes up for in atmosphere, equipment, and an owner that is not only friendly but involved with everyone! Tips, tricks, and pointers all given by Will, the owner, and he also does personal training! I regret not signing up for a membership sooner! Highly recommend this gym if you want to take your fitness to the next level!
Came to visit family over the holiday season and needed a place to workout, little did I know that Iron Will Gym was going to redefine what it is I am looking for in a gym. I found myself telling my girlfriend that this gym alone would motivate me to get to the gym every day.The gym has some of the best equipment around, is never busy, great friendly service from owner and trainer Will, and at a fraction of the price you will find anywhere else.If youre in town for business or pleasure, this is the gym youre looking for. If you live in VA and you dont go here yet, cancel your other memberships and join Iron Will Gym, you wont be disappointed.
High quality gym ran by an owner that cares. He wants to know what the gym-goers think about their experience and what equipment they get next. That’s fantastic. It’s also clean, climate-controlled, and the equipment that is already there is superb. Happy to go here regularly.
The owner always makes himself available and truly wants to build a phenomenal space for all levels of fitness!
Easily the best gym in Cville. The owner is knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about helping others reach their fitness and wellness goals. Hoping they open more locations 🤞🏻
Came here on a guest pass and got a great workout. Reasonable rates, owner was present & friendly and had a good overall vibe! Would definitely come back and recommend if you live in the area.
Best gym in town!! Cant imagine working out anywhere else since going here. Great equipment and very well maintained. Clean and positive environment. 10/10
Extremely well run gym. Will (the owner), truly cares about the experience for his members and is continuously asking for feedback and making constant improvements. The gym has a lot of great equipment, and suits those who are there to powerlift, bodybuild, or work on their general fitness. Its a welcoming environment and doesnt have overcrowding problems. Pricing is extremely fair for the value - 24/7 access to great equipment with convenient parking. The gym is also well-cleaned (which isnt necessarily a given for independently owned gyms). I would recommend this gym to anyone who lives in the Charlottesville area.
Great gym wonderful owner I came here when he first opened it left to another gym because it was convenient and regretted it recently came back and He has welcomed me with open arms great place a lot of great equipment and it’s open 24hrs a day and the owner is hands on and reachable great pricing!!!!!
Iron Will Gym is one of the best gyms in town! The gym has a great selection of equipment, including a wide array of plate-loaded Hammer Strength Machines, which feel great and are hard to find in a gym, especially in the Charlottesville area. Additionally, the gym aims to create a community environment that welcomes people with all levels of experience as well as a wide range of goals. Will truly cares about his members, and he is constantly seeking feedback from his members and working to implement these suggestions to improve the gym. Furthermore, as a member of Iron Will Gym, you will gain access to a plethora of resources to aid you in your fitness goals as Will is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to personal fitness and meeting your goals, and he does not hesitate to share this knowledge with others to aid them in achieving their fitness goals.
A wonderful gym. Very worth the money.
Best equipment around! 🙌🏽
Has everything you need and the owner is easily accessible and doesnt try to pull any nonsense to turn a profit. No contracts, just start or end your membership at your own pace.
Great gym well laid out and friendly people. Best gym in town and a great coach . #teamironwill
Will is a terrific trainer, and I am healthier and fitter thanks to his personal training and nutrition guidance.
The owner’s signature is all over this place. Reasonable rates and keeps it real.
I have been a member at Iron Will since February and consider joining this gym the best investment I have made all year. After Golds Gym closed, I tried out a few other places in town but they were either too specialized or just lacked the community that I hoped to be a part of. Not only does Iron Will have all the equipment I could ever need, it also has such a positive and supportive atmosphere that motivates me to go and make the most of my time there.I think Will has done a phenomenal job curating a wide range of equipment as well as fostering an environment where anyone can feel at home, whether theyre a beginner, a competitive bodybuilder, an elite powerlifter, or just someone who isnt training for anything in particular but still wants to get strong AF and be around others who inspire them to do so :)Will is an incredibly knowledgable personal trainer and even though I have been weight lifting for several years, the sessions I did with him taught me so much and the programming he did for me has been incredibly effective. Even if you arent a personal training client of his, he is always incredibly helpful in answering any questions regarding equipment set-up, form checks, nutrition advice and a plethora of other related topics.Its also worth noting that even at peak times, this gym never feels too crowded and is not like some of the corporate gyms in town where you basically have to stand in line to use certain equipment. This gym truly puts the members first and I cannot recommend it enough!
Will has done amazingly with creating an environment that suits a broad range of fitness goals! After Gold’s Gym closed, Charlottesville was left with some big box gyms as well as a few smaller very specialized ones. I think all of these facilities have their place in Cville, but what I love about Iron Will is that it has plate loaded Hammer Strength equipment which feels really smooth to use, selector pieces, cable crossovers, cardio equipment, a free room, and loads of other unique pieces. He also has the most glute building equipment of any gym in Charlottesville which is awesome and hard to find (think GHD, Reverse Hyper, Hip Thruster, etc)! The gym has some extremely experienced lifters, as well as those just getting started or back into lifting, but the entire gym community boasts a positive and supportive home-away-from-home feeling. I left a bigger gym in town because it became so overcrowded that lifting was impossible and their hours on the weekend were too short for my work schedule. To sum it up, 24/7 gym with a catered selection of incredible equipment, and a strong community, couldn’t be happier!
