Fantastic experience: Best gym in the area
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of this gym for just 10 months and I enjoy every training session. As an older member I find the staff and other gym members to be extremely helpful and most of all very friendly. The equipment is very comprehensive, well maintained and offers cardio work outs as well as body building and every option to keep fit whatever your age. It's a very friendly place where I look forward to going to and is extremely well managed.
Thanks so much for your review!
Positive experience: Small gym, but with heavy weight, great workout there and only 5 pounds for a day pass.
Thanks Carlos!

Fantastic experience: It’s an amazing gym, personally the best one I have been to. I have been coming here for around 10 months now it’s been the best fitness experience I’ve had, The staff are supper friendly and willing to help the owners are constantly improving the gym and making sure that there members are happy. The equipment is really good and has a really nice outdoor area with a nice range of boxing equipment. The members are also really welcoming and friendly and I couldn’t recommend a better gym then this one!
Thanks so much Christian!
Fantastic experience: Great gym good equipment you can go out the back and they have a outdoor area with equipment what's always nice to see
Fantastic experience: Cycling by and went in to check out this gym. 5* old school gym with great friendly staff. Thanks you for making me feel so welcome, your passion for fitness shins through.
Fantastic experience: Was visiting Clacton and trained in this gym twice over the weekend. Outstanding gym. Firstly they offer one off sessions for £5 each which is a very reasonable price. The gym is small, but the range of equipment is good to get a decent session in for either lower or upper body. The machines are quite old school (in a good way), and they have metal plates which I think is great. The best thing about this gym is how quiet it is. I trained at 8am Saturday and 9am Sunday and the gym was almost empty. Perfect to get a good quality session in. According to the staff it stays quiet throughout the day until 6pm onwards. They have a little outdoor space which is good for a few things too. Overall I highly rated this gym. Far better than any chain, an authentic gym that I was a huge fan of.
Thanks for your review Matthew! You’re welcome any time. Hope to you see you again.The Ironworks Gym
