Positive experience: The people at ironwork are friend it's a very good gym
Positive experience: So glad to be back at ironworks! shame there is no WiFi ... only because I like my own music to get in the zone lol one wish is an adjustable crossover cable machine, but other than that it's a great gym with a great vibe :)
Fantastic experience: Excellent old-school gym. Great community. Friendly and down-to-earth owner and team. +10 testosterone by just existing in this space and +8 concentration from the (good) music. The area is packed and most weight are cast-iron so be careful not to trip.

Fantastic experience: honestly best gym ive been too great atmosphere
Fantastic experience: This gym is the place to be it’s got all the best equipment and run by the nicest family ❤️everyone helps others out if needed and full of true inspirational folk I’ve been going for years and I wouldn’t go anywhere else
Fantastic experience: It is the same as it's ever been. It's a perfect gym if you are looking to lift heavy things and find knowledgeable people. If you are looking for a sauna or jacuzzi, this isn't the place. It's a proper lifters gym, it's old school, I'm glad it hasn't changed, although I do feel like it used to be bigger, maybe that's just me though.
Fantastic experience: Incredible gym. Got all the equipment you need for cardio and/or strength training, so can’t complain. If I lived nearby, this would be my home gym.
Fantastic experience: If want to get big muscle this is the place to go
Fantastic experience: The best gym in the area by far
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Birmingham
Fantastic experience: Top quality gym and staff and owner are well professional in there field of work highly recommend
Fantastic experience: Great old school gym. Fantastic range of machines and weights. Good cardio area. Glad I switched from the commercial gyms to this place. Great atmosphere and people there. Has everything to get in and stay in shape.
Fantastic experience: My son enjoys going there and the people are nice and helpful!
Positive experience: Very good gym. Great variety of apparatus. I had lots to do. I found machines that I'd never seen before However, toilets are filthy. The majority of the clientele didn't flush the toilet. The music is quite bad. The dance music I can understand, but the London gangster rap stuff is horrible.
Fantastic experience: Visited twice now, great equipment, atmosphere and people
Fantastic experience: Real Old School gym. Ironworks has every type of machine for each body part one could imagine. Great gym
Fantastic experience: Very friendly sfaff insight in the reception area All gym machines are kept serviced and properly looked after Gym machines are regularly sanitised Outside parking Toilets for a gym are clean and respectable
Fantastic experience: been coming here since 2005 great gym great environment nice friendly atmosphere. daz and the staff are a credit to this place
Fantastic experience: amazing community, staff, and equipment!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym, everything for a full workout here. Recommended to anyone.
Positive experience: Old school bodybuilding gym as expected, so many machines, wish all of them were usable though: a few seemed to have missing pins
Fantastic experience: A lot of very good equipment. Plenty of opportunities for everyone to train. A good shop which I think is important for a gym. Like pretty much every gym, parking is limited. I would recommend better signage outside as its easy drive past. But the gym itself, I can only say excellent.
Fantastic experience: spectacular gym
Fantastic experience: Great down to earth no bulls**t gym, with loads of equipment to play with , however take your headphones the music choice is sh1t..! but that's my personal opinion.
Fantastic experience: If you looking for a old school gym in south brum, look no further. Maybe a little tricky to find, it is the left before the carvery. The staff was polite & helpful and was happy to give me a tour. Gym got old school machines with modern kit too. Overall, good gym, good music and welcoming vibes to all.
Fantastic experience: Pact full of gym equipment and a really nice vibe, mainly male clientele but very friendly and the staff are friendly too.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly gym, great equipment just a nice environment to be in.
Fantastic experience: The best gym in Birmingham period!
Fantastic experience: I've trained here on and off for just over 20 years since I was a teenager. Bob the old owner was an absolute gem who was always willing to give me tips and helpful info. Daz who runs it now has certainly taken up the mantle and runs a great gym and is always a friendly face behind the counter. Says a lot that he remembers clients names despite lengthy absences. You only have to look at the list of champs the gym produces to know the quality of equipment. Despite its imposing setting it's very beginner friendly and would recommend for beginner to pro. Best gym in brum hands down.
Fantastic experience: Great gym great facilities. Staff so helpful and make you feel welcome
Fantastic experience: Would strongly recommend this gym to anyone who may be a newcomer to the gym scene or a complete pro! Staff are genuinely friendly and approachable to make you feel at ease. The amount of equipment is insane so you’re never stuck waiting for machines! Love how there is also a women’s separate gym full of a great variety of machines!!

Positive experience: Everything you need to get fit
Fantastic experience: Love Ironworks, Great gym, friendly staff and all members very welcoming.
Positive experience: I've been going to this gym for over 4 months now and I love it, its just a raw, good old fashioned gym that reminds me of the movie pumping iron. The only flaw I find is that the days (Saturday and Sunday) that people have the most time to train, the gym closes too early at 3:00pm. I teach martial arts in the mornings so am only able to get to the gym 12.30am and I'm sure dad's have to take their young ones, to singing lessons or dance classes, which doesn't give people enough time to get a good practise session in. Yeah of course I could join a 24 hour gym but they don't have that pumping iron energy, feel, rough and rugged look like the ironworks. I think they Should at least close at 5. Either way I love it here and I'm an addict.
Fantastic experience: Great, original gym. No drama, and everything you could ask for. The staff are friendly and so accommodating, the PT staff are brilliant. This is not a fitness gym, but there is a cardio area, punch bags, and a fitness area too, along with the best old school bodybuilding equipment. The greatest all round gym I have ever been to.
Fantastic experience: Great looking gym if you are not fussy
Fantastic experience: Great for gym bunnies
Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in Birmingham without a doubt freindly staff and all you need to get a good sesh on

Fantastic experience: Love it. Helpful and knowledgeable staff. Great choice of machines and weights.
Fantastic experience: It has everything that you will need
Fantastic experience: Solid old school gym, with so much equipment. Old iron weights, it's focused on people who are serious about training but also caters for those who just want to stay in shape. And it has a separate ladies only gym if the ladies want to train separate. There is a leg room, a back room, a TRX area, a cardio area, a main gym area focussing on chest and arms.
Fantastic experience: Hardcore. Best gym in Birmingham if you actually care about training. Friendly staff. Could do with nicer showers though but that's nitpicking.
