Probably one of the best wholesome humble family's of powerlifters you will find. Everyone is so welcoming and helpful. Enjoyed every minute.

I'd never been to another gym before this one - but a tour around the place with Rheta convinced me.

Best gym around Syracuse! Not only for strength and power but for the regular gym goer as well! You come to this place and you WILL get better!

Blood iron is one of the most accomodating gyms I've ever been to. Its not just some place you can go and lift its more than that. Its very welcoming and fits my personal preference of nitty gritty free weight style gyms. There are machines but I dont use them. Its more than a place to lift its more like a family.

Had a membership for a few months now and the place is pretty great. It's not you gym bunny type of place. It's very earthy and hard. Like a rocky movie. Which I love about it. Everyone there is very friendly and helpful. Never had a bad vibe yet. And the dog is awesome!!
