I've been a member of Motor City Barbell for a year now and I honestly wish that I would have joined sooner!The community is second to none - walking into a gym can be intimidating, but Justin and Ashely have cultivated an environment that is encouraging and welcoming, regardless of where a person may be in their fitness journey.The club recently moved to a larger facility based on need, and while it's not quite done yet, it's going to be great and is a true reflection of the kind of business owner Justin is: he puts so much into the club. He is knowledgeable, but not pretentious. I've seen him work with elite, skilled athletes, to youth athletes, to older athletes, to brand new athletes - they all receive the same amount of attention and care.I know that I've improved since joining, and I've made lifelong friends as well.Whether you're looking to join our awesome Olympic weightlifting team, looking to fine tune some of your skills, or work independently, MCB has a variety of membership options available, including 24 hour key code access if that's your need.Again, I wish I had found this place sooner, but am glad it's where I ended up. I highly recommend MCB!

I’m around a month in to working out at Motor City Barbell and it’s easily the best gym I’ve been to. The coaches are super approachable and charismatic, it’s never crowded, and the equipment to use is top notch with no unnecessary frills to add to any indecision.

Justin is a top-notch trainer and nutritionist. He is incredibly knowledgeable not only about what is the best approach to your fitness needs but also how to change your lifestyle. I have learned a lot and know I can trust him to watch me like a hawk and know what challenges I will meet. I have been working with him for 6+ years and can highly recommend him.

If I could give Motor City Barbell more than five stars, I absolutely would! The club is one of the most supportive environments I’ve trained out of, and Justin is such a knowledgeable, encouraging, and adaptable coach. I’ve been at MCB for just over a year and couldn’t be happier! Come check out the best gym in Metro Detroit, you won’t regret it!

I can’t say enough great things about Motor City Barbell. I’ve been training here for a little over two years now, and the the growth I’ve had physically and mentally when it comes to training has been the highlight of my past couple years. If you are new to lifting or advanced, Justin will adapt to wherever you’re at and create a custom program that suits you. Check it out if you’re looking for an amazing community that will impact you in the best way. It will change your life!

FANTASTIC GYMI was new in town looking for a Crossfit/group style gym to train in. Stopped by Motor City Barbell quickly to check it out for 5 minutes. 5 minutes turned into about 20-30 minutes chatting with Owner/Operator Justin about all the gym offers to its members, the community he is building and how he has tailored the gym to best accommodate his members.Open gym with great hours allow me to come in on my schedule and be flexible with my availability outside of the group classes.The group classes lead by Justin and his partner are great! He really takes account of each individual in the class (capped at 8-10), points out where we can improve on form and is constantly pushing us to go longer and harder with a positive attitude.The facility itself has a bathroom, shower, lockers,water, coffee and supplements stocked so it’s a one stop shop for its members.Can’t speak more positive about this gym and can’t wait to get back in it. Highly recommend everyone stop by and support local business owners like Justin.
