Incredible place to just kick back & relax and work out plus you can bring your children since they have places for them too. Definitely highly recommended! Customer service is amazing of course. Only downfall is the membership cost but overall it is worth every penny !
Me and my brothers, sister, boyfriend, and several of our friends have all had incredible experiences during our time here throughout the years. The staff are inviting/friendly, knowledgeable and helpful—Sarah and Jimmy are amazing owners and trainers who are committed to encouraging everyone who steps foot in their gym. I truly cannot recommend Iron Athlete enough!
It’s refreshing to see a gym that still has the old school feel of “pumping iron” ....NO ONE needs a smoothie bar or snack stand with matching equipment to make physical gains. All the staff members are extremely professional and have a long resume of REAL experience getting people of all ages and sizes to meet their “goals”. Dont let the name fool you. You don’t need to be an “athlete” to join Iron Athlete! They’ll make you one!
Took a tour today, and I must say I love it. I recently joined a fire department and realized that I needed to get in shape. I really did not want to sign up at a chain gym feeling that they would not have what I needed .I looked for a gym geared towards power lifters and I found it. A lot of the equipment will mimic the work firefighting demands such as the farmers walk, and tire strike thing. Needless to say the staff seemed awesome and I left after signing up for a membership.
My son was part of the Middle School workout program and I was also a member of the club a short while. Everything was great and they helped my son learn to lift and he enjoyed it as well.
Hidden gem in the area... went to retro fitness for the last 5 years and didn’t even know this place was there... they have about 10 power racks and all sorts of accessories... great gym
Iron Athlete is a second home. The people, the atmosphere, the equipment - unrivaled!
Attend this facility one time had to relocate for work canceled membership and still continue to get changed even those I filled out the written form and send multiple emails. Hopefully somone can reach out to resolve this issue.
Hands down my favorite gym. Everyone is friendly and you can tell the owners love what they do. It’s definitely a community, not somewhere that you throw in your headphones and ignore everyone. Plus, the playlists are on point. I moved 30 minutes away and would never dream of switching gyms.
I truly enjoy waking up (at 4:15am, mind you) to get over to the gym. The morning group is a blast to work out with. There is always great energy at the gym. There is a ton of equipment for strength training and general fitness. They have tires, prowlers, and other unusual equipment.
Best gym in the tri state area possibly even the world. Staff members are all very knowledgeable and personable they really make me feel apart of the iron athlete family. Iron athlete takes pride in seeing people crush there goals and keeps you motivated to come back. Iron athlete is a staple for the community in lansdale . Best gym ever period. I go 5 days a week never get tired of being there.
I’ve tried literary every gym in the area. I stepped foot into iron athlete and signed up on the spot. The owners are great people and the equipment is the best in the area!
This is an old school gym. No frills, no fancy machines, hardcore and straight to the point. Barbells, dumbbells, squat racks, machines in a large open setting. I didnt use it but I know they have a lot of personal and group functional strength training also. I loved it. The atmosphere is all about training and the people are very knowledgeable, nice and positive. This is a great place for newbies and a great place for experienced gym rats.
Was looking for a gym that I could get my workout done at since I was not near my local gym. Messaged them on facebook to see if they did day passes and got a very quick reply and was surprised that it was only $10.00. After work I swing by and was greeted by who I believe was the owner. Very nice individual, it felt like I had been a member there for a while by the way I was treated, offered to spot my lifts and all. If I lived locally, theres no doubt this would be my gym. If i am ever in the area again, theres no other place I would go than here.
Iron Athlete has proven to be the first gym with its inspirational Trainers / Owners to really help me move the needle on my level of fitness, strength, how I look and feel ! Jimmy and Sara as partners challenge you and support you through your journey.This gym has a program for all ages ! My daughter works out here as well and is as addicted and obsessed as I am ! The members are welcoming and inclusive and support you as you begin your workoutJourney . Coaching is a piece of my professional life and many days after a class ... I will take what Jimmy and Sara has inspired us with to push and challenge us harder to my team at work ! I HIGHLY recommend Iron Athlete ! This is the first google review I have ever done - I was inspired to share my insight with others around IA !
Great gym for athletes. They have plenty of equipment and the staff is super friendly. Its never too crowded so you can always get the workout in that you want to. I love it :)
Ive been working out with Sara and the morning Womens Strength and Conditioning group for over a year. Ive loved every minute of it. Im stronger than Ive ever been and am always motivated to keep coming back. Sara always challenges us and is focused on using proper form. Highly recommend this gym !
I just finished my first month at Iron Athlete and can say what a great gym this is. Sara and Jim are great, very knowledgeable and willing to help with any questions you may have. My biggest regret is that I drove past the gym almost daily and never checked it out, dont make my mistake and go see what you are missing. First boot camp next week!!!
Ive been coming to this gym about 4 days a week for the past couple of months and I gotta say, when i eventually move, this gym will be the hardest thing to let go of.What you get here is a gym with everything youd ever need to build strength and athleticism. If they dont have a particular piece of equipment, you most likely dont need it, or its inferior to something else they DO have.You also wont find many gyms with a stretch of turf like the one they have here. That opens up a whole new range of exercises you can now do. On top of all that, Jimmy and Sarah (the owners) are very helpful.Honestly, for the price, I cant imagine youd find a better gym in the area. Ive looked. The only downside I can think of is a lack of water fountain, but just bring two bottles and youll be fine.
Sara and Jimmy are awesome owners and trainers. If your looking to get stronger and leaner this is the place to go. There’s something for everyone, classes, group training and personal training. I’ve been personal training and taking classes for over 5 years with them and have never felt and looked better!! Love this gym!!
Awesome place to workout for both beginner and experienced weightlifters 💪. Clean and organized.Jimmy and Sarah are dedicated to create a good & fun environment. Highly recommend!
Iron Athlete is an amazing atmosphere in which to improve yourself! There are so many different kinds of people there, it is obvious that all are welcome. The staff do a fantastic job creating a workout tailored for you and your goals. I’m so thankful this gym is in our town!!!
Great gym with all of the equipment needed for any level of athlete including the casual gym goer. Fewer pieces of cardio and gym machines than your average gym in favor of free weights, functional strength and cardio equipment. I loved pushing the sled as well as absolutely no wait times for a squat rack when I was there. Cant recommend this place enough. With 6 squat racks, numerous benches and 3 lifting platforms, I always felt like I had what I needed.
This gym is awesome. I do the Womens Strength training 3 days per week at 6 am. Love Sara and the workouts she creates for us. love how she motivates us and the camaraderie of our group really keeps me motivated.This is a great gym!
Love this gym, and the Women’s Strength and Conditioning class is amazing- great group!!. I’ve been getting up for the 6am class 3 days a week for 6 months.Sara is a great coach- she knows when to push and when to smile and encourage.... I would never do the types of workouts/lifting we do in class on my own. At 42- I am stronger than I have ever been. Highly recommend this gym.
The owners, Sara and Jimmy, are fantastic! The gym is spacious with all the free weights, and machines plus classes you could want.If your in to fitness and cross fit this is the place for you. Need a trainer? No problem.Jimmy and Sara are the best in town. Everyone I have meet at Iron Athlete has been very friendly and easy going. What a fun place to work out! Highly recommend. -Joe C.
Amazing facility with a family atmosphere. Owners are terrific people with the knowledge to guide and help at all times. Simply put best price around for what you get! Love this place!
Great gym, great people, great work outs!The new location has plenty of parking spaces and is so welcoming.Sara and Jim are always there to help and push you and there is always a workout on the board if you are unsure of what to do. never boring!I am really looking forward to start the new year in this new location.
Good local gym. Good place to go a get work done.
I dropped into Iron Athlete while traveling and it was perfect. Its a large facility with all the equipment I required to continue my home training routine away from home. LOVE the turf and sleds - something very hard to find these days. Ill be back anytime Im in the area.
Iron athlete is okay, I used to train there very frequently. There are some other gyms in the area that have nicer facilities and water fountains. But Iron Athlete does have adequate facilities.Bring your own water.
Roomy, inviting and loads of equipment for whatever level lifting you are currently at. As a 40 something female I work hard here with excellent guidance and am pushed beyond what I can do on my own. All ages will feel comfortable and will find a workout that suits you or do your own thing! Come on in and talk to one of the trainers!!
Simply put, this place makes my head happy! Sara and Jimmy have cultivated an atmosphere that welcomes and inspires. The programming keeps me engaged and constantly challenged; the variety of equipment keeps it fresh and fun. The new space is awesome. Check this place out!
As far as the specialty equipment, atmosphere, and training knowledge of the owners, this is a solid strength and conditioning facility. They have a great hidden gem here, and if you’re serious about training and you live in the Lansdale area, this is a spot to check out.
Great gym if you are planning on lifting heavy. They have tons of squat racks with tons of extra plates/bars and tons of free weights. Plenty of open space for stretching as well. Highly reccomend!
Trainers are amazing--- positive & motivating! I am new to the gym experience and have gained confidence, strength and speed since training here. NOT a typical cookie-cutter gym...focus is on achieving personal fitness and strength goals here led by knowledgeable and engaged trainers!
Jim and Sara are amazing people and truly care about their members. I have been a client since 2010 and work out 4-5 times a week. The people are great, it is a fun environment and most important, their clients see results.
Ive known Sara and Jimmy for years now and have trained with both. Great coaches that really care about helping you reach your personal goals. The new gym is great and caters to everyone . If you are looking to get a gym membership this is the place.
Iron Athlete Gym is wonderful. I’m an avid weight lifter and when I moved I couldn’t find a gym that catered to my weight lifting style of workout until I found Iron Athlete! It’s 100% a no judgement zone, everyone who works out here is incredibly nice and helpful. The founders of the gym are very welcoming and really make me feel comfortable every time I walk through the gym doors. I highly recommend Iron Athlete Gym to anyone looking for a new gym in the Lansdale area.
After over a year of training at Iron Athlete, I can say that I will not go anywhere else.A dependable, helpful staff who Im proud to call friends, well-maintained equipment, good music, and an attitude where everybody wants everybody else to succeed makes this the place to be at 5am or any other time.Ive gone from somebody who was afraid to deadlift, afraid to squat, and overall very weak to a person who can walk into this gym, grab a squat rack or a platform or some dumbbells and get to work.It comes at an affordable price, and the hours are great. Its obvious that its a place for lifters, and its a place to better your life.
I’ve been a member for about three months now and it’s the best gym in the area. It’s well-stocked for powerlifting and athletic conditioning alike. The staff are friendly and open to suggestions. Everyone here just wants to be a better version of themselves.
Fantastic trainers who take the time to teach you proper form and technique! Great, friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend stopping in and Checking it out !!
I love this place! If you want options, theyve got them! Awesome staff and a fun facility with equipment you wont get at other gyms. Excellent value!
Been a member for several years now. Great, upbeat experience each time. The staff is second to none. Always encouraging you to do your best.
This place is on the money! Has a great vibe and is super clean. Great trainers that are always willing to help and give you encouragement. Do not sleep on this place. Awesome for all ages and experience!#ironathlete
I’ve been with Iron athlete for almost 2 years and absolutely love this gym! Never had to wait for a squat rack or bench, ever. I also use their Olympic weightlifting platforms and bumper plates which I haven’t seen at any other local gym. They also have other training options available such as turf for sled pulls and prowler pushes, kettlebells etc...., also haven’t seen this at any other gym outside of a CrossFit box, which is nice. On a personal note, Jim and Sara gave me some great coaching for my cleans which helped me tremendously! Highly, highly recommend Iron Athlete!
I have been to the majority of gyms in the tri-county area and this is by far the best gym I have encountered. Whether you are looking to lose weight, are a power lifter, are an athlete training for a specific sport, or have another goal, Iron Athlete has the equipment and space that will allow you to push yourself to meet youre goals. Not only is the facility cleaner than any gym in the area, but Jimmy and Sara prove to be friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and they will give you great ideas for workouts. They take the time to know each member on a personal level resulting in a very enjoyable experience. The atmosphere will give you the extra motivation as all members are very friendly and encouraging as well. If you are looking to join a gym or are dissatisfied with your current training program, I would stop in Iron Athlete.
Iron Athlete provides a fun training atmosphere that can get you out of a mundane routine. The energy in the gym is always high and makes you want to work harder and lift more. Sara and Jimmy are awesome... eager to challenge you and always helpful.
I love training here, wouldn’t want to train at any other spot! Love the atmosphere and the community/friendship that are built
A great place for personal training, as well as developing people into Athletes.
I dont go here BUT...my Mom went here when I was little and she liked it so he re is my rating of it. She enjoyed her time their and never had any complaints and always had a smile on when she went there.
Great gym! Lots of space, clean facility and plenty of equipment (3 deadlifting platforms, 3!) Sara and Jim are excellent teachers and are always willing to help and answer questions.
Iron Athlete has a great staff, training programs and atmosphere. Jim and Sara run a top notch facility, thanks!
Fantastic gym. Perfect for everyone but especially ideal for anyone focused on fitness or strength training. Prices are very reasonable, no long term contracts or cancellation fees or anything like that. Staff is very friendly. Sara and Andrew were both quite helpful.Equipment is very nice. Plenty of well-maintained barbells for Olympic lifting. They have 6 power racks, 2 Olympic platforms, 2 deadlift platforms, plenty of pull-up bars, a dumbell area, plenty of room for CrossFit/cross-training, and all the machines one could need. They even have 2 ghd machines, which are hard to find sometimes.Very convenient hours for a family run gym. Very laid-back atmosphere, which is perfect for me. Never too crowded as far as I can tell. I will be a long-time member.
Iron athlete has everything I could ever ask for and more. The equipment is all in great shape and the layout is perfect. Everyone is very friendly and professional and always willing to lend a helping hand
I am a recent member of the gym and looked for this type of gym in Montgomery County so I could train differently then the normal offerings from chain gyms. I have trained for many years at many types of facilites and this is one of the best GYMs for putting in hard work. The people are fantastic, the work ethic incredible and the workout offerings are plentiful with a lot of Racks, Deadlifting (w Bands), a full compliment of Kettlebells, a Reverse Hyper and much, much more. Put in the work, results are here for you. Need help just ask, does not get better!!!!!!In addition, my best part; my son ( 13 years old) is enrolled with the summer program so he goes with me and is learning fundamentals, gym etiquette and developing his skills (instuctor led) that will last a lifetime all at affordable pricing for both of us. Sarah and Jim have put together a fantastic Gym, created a GREAT CULTURE and are DEEPLY PASSIONATE about their members getting the best results possible while having a great workout experience every single visit. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great Gym! Sara is amazing! She knows her stuff! I deff recommend to anyone...all shapes and sizes!
Great facility for everything from power and Olympic lifting to sport specific training. Staff is knowledgeable, friendly and willing to help.
Nice atmosphere great staff love this place
Top notch equipment, very well run. No dumb rules like dont slam weights or no gymtimidation. Suited for all types of training, from High School Athletics to powerlifting (I love the Texas Deadlift Bar) There are many gyms closer to my house but the 20 min drive is worth it.
This gym changed my lifting experience. I am a student athlete, and it has always been a struggle to get a good lift in over winter break. That is until I found Iron Athlete. Their gym has all of the equipment that you would find in a College Varsity weight room and even much more. The atmosphere is judgement free and everyone seems to be working towards their own individual goals. The owners and people who work there learned my name the first day that I came in and were always super helpful and friendly. I would recommend this gym to people at any lifting experience level, who want to get their body right in an uncomparable positive environment.
I love the place!! Best local gym we had in years!
Best gym around town! Nice staff and awesome equipment!
We were there for a powerlifting competition. It was well run and the gym looks like a good place to work out.
This place is amazing it made me strong and has really nice people great place.
A great gym for powerlifting. They have plenty of squat racks, 1 Deadlift platform, 2 OLY platforms, a turf area, some cable machines, and plenty of Dumbbells. They have Ohio Power bars, Deadlift bars, and a few specialty bars including safety squat bars. Their leg press machine is no joke, and they have a reverse hyper machine as well as a glute ham raise machine.The membership is definitely reasonable and the atmosphere is perfect. Friendly people, lots of knowledge shared, and all around a great gym. I love coming here!
Amazing place, great coaches.
No water fountain, no mirrors, equipment from the 60s, this is the worst I have been to Vietnam.
Not good no water fountain
BEST.GYM.EVER
Very small
Nice atmosphere
