I've been training here for just over 2 years. Everyone's respectful of each other, each other's time, and the equipment. Machines you would normally only find in a pro setting. Great place if you have pre-existing injuries you are trying to rehab or work around. Powersquat pro for my bad back and a Rogers shoulder press for my bad shoulder. The owner and the trainers all solid stand up guys. If you're looking for a serious place to train, this is it 100%. Best gym I've been in 8 years.

I LOVEEE THIS GYM! The fact that it is 24hrs fits with well with my work schedule and it's very well maintained bathrooms are always clean. If a machine breaks down the parts get replaced and fixed fast. Weights stay re-racked. During the summer they open up the garage doors so it's nice to get the outdoor feel while you're working out. The staff and people that go there are really friendly. They have so many pieces of different equipment that target what you're looking for. Honestly a real gym and very close to home. Keep up the good work!

My favorite gym been here for over 4 years. The only gym I've ever been to where I feel safe in not only being able to come here anytime I want but because of the members. Not once have I had a negative experience or any weirdos to worry about. Everyone is held accountable. Some of us don't want to mess around we just want to lift, the free weights and machines are everything I could ask for on top of getting new equipment.

Been working out at Iron Rails Training Facility for a few years now and it's a second home to me. Constantly upgrading equipment and upgrading the gym itself. The atmosphere and respect that everyone gives to each other and the equipment is unmatched.
