Best Gym in Seattle. If you're looking for a "classic bodybuilding gym" around Seattle, this is the ONLY place to be. Entire staff is super friendly. Great music played at all times (not some top40 pop bops). Just general great vibes.

I love a gym that also feels like a community, and not just a place you go to lift and keep to yourself. The owners are friendly and they have the widest selection of machines I’ve seen at any comparable gym, plus an extremely generous free weight collection

If you’re into bodybuilding this place is Mecca. So great going to a place that focuses on what’s important and not trying to imitate other globo-gyms. The staff is friendly and the equipment is exactly what I need (and more). It’s also really refreshing to hear music that’s being controlled by the staff and other customers at the gym! Sometimes I take my headphones off and they’re playing exactly what I’d be listening to anyway! What a revolution!

Would highly recommend this gym to everyone! This facilityIs geared towards heavy lifters, but still has all the equipment and space for functional fitness. Friendly staff and the owners are great people! One of my main issues with commercial gyms is the cancellation process. Most gyms make cancelling your membership a nightmare. I unfortunately had to cancel my membership at big iron, but Jaime and Laura (the owners) made it easy and painless! Will definitely be back again when I can!

Great gym! This is a powerlifting gym that has a variety of different equipment. Everything is laid out well and sometimes when the weather is good they open the roller doors. There’s a couple rooms in this gym and has a place for posing.A day pass is $20. It’s typical price for Seattle day pass. The gym is a bit dusty and dirty.
