Ironbound Gym is a fantastic gym and I would highly recommend it to anyone in the Williamsburg area. The staff is friendly, the equipment is clean/impressive, and it never feels too crowded. Plus it is very affordable!

  Be careful when you cancel! This gym has been charging us for a membership for quite a while. My husband did send a letter of cancellation to the gym, but the owner said that you need to send the letter to a different address than what is advertised on the website. I looked online, and there is no reference to help members with their complicated cancellation process (definitely no mention of this mystery address). When I brought this to their attention, they only agreed to repay one month of what had been a very long time. They also said that someone had been using our gym cards. Yeah no, obviously they know the ins and outs of a scam. Be careful! They give gyms everywhere a bad name.

  I joined Iron Bound last year in March after moving here from Chicago. Needless to say, I have not been disappointed. This gym is geared more towards people searching for an active lifestyle (or bodybuilders) rather than those looking for a training environment. With that being said, they do have a little crossfit area that is perfect for those looking for more of a training environment. The back area has a crossfit rig, bumper plates, bands, rings, assault bike, skierg, assault treadmill, and it has a white board filled with WOD's. There is an additional fee for the training area but it is well worth it for those looking to practice their olympic lifts or pr on deadlifts/squats.

They have a smoothie bar with multiple options and they have a little retail store with snacks and clothing for purchase as well. In regards to covid, they have installed these antimicrobial protectors on all their commonly used surfaces (benches in locker room and door handles), which I am a fan of. Most gyms do not have this and I appreciate the extra care they put into protecting the guests during covid.

In addition, the female locker room has a "take one leave one" book exchange in it! I love how this gym is more than a gym- it really is a family.

To sum this up, I am a huge fan of this gym and wish I lived closer, I recently moved to Norfolk. I come back as often as I can for the family feel and equipment.

  My nephews and I have enjoyed this gym while on vacation at the Powhatan Resort several times over the years, including this year. We all agree that it is an excellent location, with a dizzying selection of free weights, weight machines, cardio equipment, and specialized workout areas from spinning to yoga. The locker rooms and showers are convenient and well kept. The staff is always available, friendly, and knowledgeable about all aspects of fitness. And they make a mean smoothie - from the lower calorie to muscle building to maximum gain categories. All three of us would love to have a gym of this caliber available to us on a full time basis!
