I started coming here recently, and I am blown away at the community atmosphere and positivity that I see here. This isn't an ordinary gym, it's something special.

I have belonged to gyms in multiple areas of the country and even overseas. There is not a better gym than IVB. Everyone in that place wants to see you win from the owner to the trainers to the everyday members. If you are in Indiana, this is THE gym

Having been a member of pretty much every gym in the greater-Indy area I can say, without a doubt, that Zach has truly created something special at IVB. Unlike 'typical' gyms, IVB surges with positive/encouraging vibes and has a true sense of community. Very much like your own health and wellness, what you get out of IVB is what you put into it!

One of the Mecca’s of strength sports. Zach is one of the most knowledgeable coaches in strength sports and his gym show cases this having many different tools to assist strongman and powerlifting/bodybuilding training alike. There’s not a single person in this building who does not want to see you reach your goals. The atmosphere/equipment and the location make it a 5/5.
