This Factory has it all! Great high quality Olympic weightlifting set-up, CrossFit Classes, HIIT classes and the coaches are amazing! Drop in for a class or just to use the gym! The Owner doesn’t cut any corners with it comes to equipment, programming and knowledgeable coaches.

I was sitting in my van waiting for my daughter who was attending a cheer clinic at ISU. I called Aaron to see if I could grab a workout. It was a shot but I’m glad I called. He gave me access and trusted me to pay…which of course I will. The facility is everything I needed. Of course it’s not a Planet Fitness type gym but that is opposite of what I needed. It’s a gritty functional facility with nice equipment. Thanks, Aaron and the Strength Factory. I love Iowa.Tom - Illinois

Great gym for classes or working out on your own. My fiance and I go here all the time. Aaron is an excellent coach who really knows his stuff! We absolutely recommend this for beginners, advanced gym rats, and crossfit nerds.

Excellent programming the works fluidly with the certified coaches that drive each class, allowing each individual to reach their own personal goals. Once you experience the family environment and total gym experience, you will look no further!

I’m an over weight man in his early 30’s and was afraid to join a gym with classes thinking I’d be out of place. But at the Factory the coaches and members to a great job of making everyone feel welcome while also pushing you to be your best self! I really couldn’t give this gym higher praise!

The Factory is a great place to workout at with a great atmosphere. The support you get from the entire staff there and quality of coaching is amazing. Aaron is one of the most passionate guys when it comes to improving people’s everyday lives and you can see it when he is coaching. He’s good with all ages and ability levels, I highly recommend checking this gym out if you are in the Ames/DSM area!

One of the best CrossFit gyms you could possibly go to. Aaron and the rest of the coaches are always there to push you to be a better you not only physically but mentally. If you can't do RX, not a problem. They custom scale the workouts to best fit your fitness needs, goals, and experience.

Aaron is the best coach I’ve ever had. He is constantly expanding his knowledge so he can offer the best programming in the area. 10/10 would recommend

I chose this location because of the location. I keep coming because of the people. The trainers and the participants are all awesome. I woke up one day and was tired of feeling and looking terrible. Three days later I started here. 30 days later I feel and look so much better. This place is great for any age or fitness level.

This place is awesome, it is locally owned and operated by a couple of guys who also coach the classes. This is not your typical cookie cutter franchise-run gym, the two guys care a lot about the people there, especially the short one he's super nice and fun. For sure a gym where any skill level can go and feel welcome and safe. From the coach potatoes (me) to the extreme athletes there is a place for you. Give it a try I'm sure you won't regret it.
