Best gym in PA. I’ve known the owner for 15 years, having been in the industry (that was pre-dad bod lol) but this place is great. It’s a lifters gym for real. I only wish they had one in FL where I live.

Probably the most comprehensive sports training program in the area. Your child will be ready for their sport, strength, agility, stamina and speed. With focus on injury prevention. Jim is great at making it fun but getting the job done. As for the gym itself, it is clean with tons of options for beginners to heavy lifters. Everyone does their own thing! I know Sara offers strength training groups for ladies though I never participated in them. If you are looking for a friendly gym Jim and Sara are just that, they want to help you with your goals. They are hands on and always available for any kind of help you might need. A local own business that isn't a chain!

After being a member of big box gyms my whole life, I finally decided it was time for something new. Plus wanting to support local business around the Covid times a couple years back. I was hesitant at first, thinking I would feel out of place or intimidated in a smaller “lifting” gym. I couldn’t have been more wrong.The staff and members are all so welcoming and helpful, and I’ve formed great relationships with a lot of people there.Jim and Sara are knowledgeable, experienced, motivating trainers and even better people.The gym has all the equipment you will ever need, from beginner to long time experienced lifter. And you can’t beat the convenience and price.I would definitely recommend Iron Athlete to anyone in search of their new gym home!

This is an awesome powerlifting gym with all the toys. Got in a couple of workouts here while in from CO for the week. Was also great to meet Sarah, one of the owners, while here today.Highly recommend to anyone and I look forward to coming back next time I’m in town.

Let me start off by saying- I didn’t think there was an athletic bone in my body! In high school, they made a special rule that I was allowed to go up to the net to serve in volleyball. I thought I was hopeless.After reading up on the benefits of weightlifting, I decided to give the women’s strength and conditioning group a try. It turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life. Over the past two years, I have grown so much in confidence, strength, and health due to this group.Jimmy and Sara are two of the best people I have ever met. I am not a morning person, but I look forward to the 6 AM workouts. They have cultivated such motivating and encouraging energy in their gym. Sara is the best coach; she will push you, encourage you, and make you laugh. Also, every woman in the group is so kind; everyone is at a different place in their strength journey, so whether you are a beginner or a pro- you will fit right in to the group!The Women’s Strength and Conditioning group is the best money you could ever spend, and in general, I do not think there is another gym that could top Iron Athlete. I rarely leave reviews, but truly I cannot recommend them enough!

There is a great selection of equipment and ample space to support a wide variety of exercises and programs, and the staff are not only friendly but very knowledgeable. But, the biggest reason I keep coming back is the atmosphere. After striking out with several more commercial gyms in the area, the thing I appreciate the most about Iron Athlete is the productive and hard working vibe of the members and employees. The general fitness IQ in the room is noticeably higher than your average gym, which makes it easy to have a productive workout. Not the place where you have to worry about appearing in the back of someones tiktok, which I love.

I visited the gym while on holiday in the area, and I could not have been more impressed with the space. I was training for a powerlifting competition this month and to be able to use such great powerlifting specific bars and plates was a dream and really made me peaking sessions here much more successful. Super friendly staff too and the process of buying a day pass was very easy and extremely affordable. I could not recommend this gym more, thank you to the owners for such an incredible space!

Not your average gimmicky big-box gym.Solid place for those serious about starting/progressing with their strength training.Ty is a superb trainer - patient and addressed all my queries.I’m sure the rest of the team is equally great.Besides personal training and regular gym membership, they have group classes for women and teens.I opted to do a few personal training sessions, and look forward to working out on my own with the general membership.Highly recommend.Keep rocking, Iron Athlete Team!!

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!

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.

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.
