Blood Iron Barbell

Blood Iron Barbell has an environment that induces beast mode. Theres a real positive energy at Blood Iron; It's unique. The owner Rheta West, is a renowned athlete with several world records. I've been a member at just about every gym in Syracuse over the years and Blood Iron takes the cake.It's not a commercial gym; it's a place to reach goals by tapping into your inner strength.

Best strength gym in Upstate NY hands down. Rheta has built a haven for lifters of all levels. The addition of Jaime and 315 Strong Strongman crew rounds out a unique gym experience. Anytime I am in Syracuse I will make it a point to stop in to train.

Been a member since opening. I love the fact that it's a smaller, more private gym. You recognize everyone's faces. I never feel judged or self conscious when I'm at Blood Iron. The owner is AMAZING and helpful. I also have 1:1 training with a personal trainer Mary. I LOVE this gym.

Blood Iron is a well equipped gym in a convenient location. It is very dedicated to servicing a wide variety of fitness needs and goals. The owner and staff are very knowledgeable and the members are very friendly. They are especially dedicated to working with female members. This is by far one of the very best facilities in the region.

If you’re looking for something different than all the mainstream/commercial gyms, I would highly suggest giving blood iron a try! I just recently started working out there, and I’m really excited to utilize all of the unique things she has there! I’ve been training for 2+ years and thought I was familiar with everything you’d see in a gym... I was wrong! Sooo many new things to use and learn! Def something there for everyone and all styles of training. And my favorite part, the energy levels there are UNMATCHED! I’ve made friends and talked with more people there in the last few weeks than most people ever do in their entire lifetime at a gym. I’ve had multiple people and the owner happily offer help and answer any questions I’ve had :) You can feel the respect between everyone as soon as you enter, No bad attitudes inside!

If I could give Blood Iron Barbell a higher rating than 5 star I would. This gym has it all to offer! It doesn't matter if you're a bodybuilder, powerlifter or a strongman this facility is jam packed with the correct equipment to assist you in achieving your goals! This is that good feeling old skool gym that everyone needs to lift in. Honestly this gym is seriously one of a kind with an owner who puts EVERYTHING she has into it. Point is, if you want to lift in a clean, awesome atmosphere this is the gym for you. I mean lets just call it your new home because everyone is respectful and treats you like family.

The best gym I have ever been too. Rheta, the owner, is amazing and her passion for her gym and for fitness/lifting is above and beyond. A lot of varied equipment to use for whatever your fitness level or goal is. So happy that I joined, I feel like it's "home".

Thank you Joey!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the gym!

Best gym in Syracuse!
