Best gym for strength training Never packed Wait for equipment is not an issue except when someone is using the power lifting bench Winters are cold and makes it difficult to warm up Summers are hot but as of now not too bad read more

This is a really nice weightlifting gym in northern Fresno. If you are focused on powerlifting or olympic lifting, you will find basically every piece of equipment you could ever need for both your main workout(s) and your accessory work. They have numerous lifting platforms in different shapes and sizes, as well as different types of squat and bench racks. There's multiple types or barbells, and bumper/metal plates in both lbs and kilos, including smaller denomination plates. There's also tons of accessory machines, a GHD, and even some cardio machines for warming up. There's also a large open area for sled pushes, sprints, etc. This is one of the most comprehensive gyms I have ever been to in terms of range of equipment, and if you can't find what you need to complete your workout here, it might not exits. Two minor criticisms: the first is that the bathroom definitely had some dirty areas and some things that were out of order/needed repair, and the price of a day pass ($35) is a bit high, even for a gym like this. Otherwise, a great spot to work out in Fresno. read more

If you serious about training , this is the gym for you. Stopped here while I was traveling and can't wait to go back. All top notch equipment. read more

I honestly hate writing negative reviews and truthfully, I'm not even sure if the owners care to improve the facility. The machines here are a powerlifters dream! The gym members are great and you're surrounded by people who are dedicated to the workout. The atmosphere is truly great. All that to be said, if you have even the slightest bit of cleanliness standards, this gym is an absolute no-go for you. For instance, the paper towel wipes will NEVER be restocked, the cloth towels that they expect EVERYONE to SHARE to wipe down the equipment absolutely reek, the ceilings are CAKED in dust and spiderwebs (which is lovely when they turn the fans on), the sauna floor looks like it's never been mopped and don't get me started on the occasional pee smell when you walk in. I really wanted to love this gym. I also do not have a problem spending $100 on a gym but the experience has to match. read more

Pros: big free weight area. Lots of equipment Lots of squat racks Good vibe. Mostly friendly people in the gym. Cons: bathrooms are downright gross. I don't particularly care, but my wife said the women's bathroom is disgusting. Doesn't have soap a lot of the time or paper towels. Sometimes ego lifters break equipment. There's a ton of people with tripods acting like they're special. And just getting in the way and or occupying a piece of equipment (or even two) for half an hour or more. read more

Honestly gone way down since they opened their new location. Paper towels, never restocked, out of tp, hand sanitizer, wipes, their sanitizer spray, always out every single day. A LOT of their machines, although very nice, are missing the correct pins (seat adjustments, etc) and have been this way for months. Their "shop" always empty and good luck finding help if you need anything, no one's here or they're hiding in the back. For 100+ a month most of this should be pretty basic. Besides that, the equipment that isn't broke or missing is great and the people here are awesome. read more

THE IRON OFFICE!!! I can't express in words how bad ass this gym is and how much I enjoy lifting heavy S#%T here!!! This is a veteran owned local business. The atmosphere, attitude & culture of this gym is 2nd to none!!! It all comes down to the owner Will, his passion for powerlifting and fitness is reflected in every aspect of his facility. Nothing but top notch competition quality equipment (Rogue, Texas Strength, etc) HUGE indoor area with plenty of racks, benches, deadlift platforms and free weights to go around! Not to mention space outside to get those work outs in under the California sunshine! The owners, management and members all treat each other like family. Every member is expected to be accountable for treating the facility with respect as if it was their own. Wether you are a beginner or seasoned powerlifter/gym goer you will thoroughly enjoy every work out at this facility! To add the the list of great reasons to train here, The Iron Office also is the host of many USA Power Lifting competitions each year! I challenge you to find a better gym in the Central Valley that will push you to improve yourself and your goals every time you show up! LIFT HEAVY, LIFT PLENTY!!! ‍ read more

10/10 for service, amenities, equipment and cleanliness. Staff are AMAZING and their autonomous setup are unparalleled. I was able to get a 6 day pass all setup within 5 min from my phone and seamlessly gained entry to the gym within 10 seconds. No waiting, selling or wasting time. Such a great gym and they don't even need any interaction required! You can buy your preworkout and protein shakes all on your own!!! So cool I wish we had this gym in my area in SoCal. Keep up the good work! You guys will ALWAYS have my business when I'm in town. Thank you for helping me train while I'm away from home. read more

You can't ask for a better gym. Top of the line equipment and always looking for ways to improve. The atmosphere here is like no other gym in fresno. read more

One of the best gyms in town. I loved how much different equipment they offer. Fitness level range from beginning to pro. The staff was knowledgeable about everything and were training clients to receive the best results. Membership price is on the high side but it's worth it. read more

Best gym in the Valley. For sure a second home. The people, the equipment, the amenities, hours... I can go on. Best gym. Hands down.

This gym is amazing! Not just the gym itself but the community that comes out of it. I moved to Fresno mid-2020 and decided to give the Iron Office a try. I met lots of great people and the gym just keeps getting better and better since I joined. Quality equipment and fits any training needs. Would definitely recommend to anybody. read more

Honest review and fair warning to would be members: If it wasn't for the pandemic I wouldn't sign up for this gym. The equipment is so-so, which is what this place seems to brag about the most. But it is a no frills, no non-sense type of gym. No cardio machines which they are upfront about. And once again no AC so that is something to consider during Fresno summers. It is ridiculously expensive for what little they offer. And they can't even guarantee that they'll be open during this pandemic which is understandable IF they would offer a refund or prorate your membership which they explicitly tell you they refuse to do, so huge points to a chain gym a la Crunch or even Planet Fitness. Also, that should be a huge clue to potential members that if any place of business refuses to offer refunds it's because they know they have a shitty or shady business. The owner isn't the best at communicating and you often find things out last minute with a hand written note on the fence, door, or from other members. But the most concerning issue is that pandemic precautions are NOT observed or enforced here. No one's wearing a mask, no social distancing, and very few people are cleaning up after themselves. Perhaps as a healthcare professional I missed the memo that Covid-19 has been cured? And with the current crap show that we're living in right now it's already been proven that we can NOT trust our fellow Americans to do their due diligence to be honest on the waiver and to stay home if they're sick. No wonder Fresno's number of infections have dramatically gone up. And the owner thinks by signing a waiver he's doing his part to protect his members but really it's just to avoid liability which believe me, will not hold up with the Department of Health or the court of law. I would suggest signing up for Crunch Fitness instead because it will eventually open back up or saving your money and buying your own weights which is what I'm doing. Definitely not renewing my membership. read more

Professional people. Nice gym. Great selection of equipment. Owned by a veteran. Glad to have this place in fresno

The gym we've been waiting for. My husband has wanted a gym that will supply him with what he needs to get the job done. He's found just that. After a few months, I decided to join as well and have been getting personal training from Jasmine. She's kicking my butt, while making sure I'm doing everything with proper form to avoid injury. She's also very encouraging. While I have not personally worked with William, I have heard nothing but great things about him as well. We're very happy to have found this place. read more

Ive done day passes at the gym in the past ( i don't believe they offer this during covid ) but every time i visit i get help from the members and owners. Great vibe and no nonsense gym. They are always updating equipment and helping out their members. Great strength gym if you are a dedicated lifter. Definitely head here if you are in fresno. read more

I really appreciate what this staff does for its members. They go above and beyond for their members. Definitely 10/10!! They invest right back into the gym for their members! Their efforts don't go unnoticed! The work ethic at this gym from their members is unmatched!! I was so pleasantly surprised to see machines I've never seen before; helping me achieve more and helping me stay sane during this pandemic! Thank you to all the staff there! read more

While I am not a member of this gym, I recently competed in a powerlifting competition that they hosted. The facility is perfect for powerlifting, the competition was professionally run and I really enjoyed my time and the meet. The owner and staff were responsive, reasonable and supportive. I highly recommend joining this gym. Or, if you are not local like me, participating in one of their meets. read more

I'm not a member but I go to the boot camps weekly and everyone there is awesome! It's a great atmosphere, small and private, and you just feel comfortable there. The boot camps GREAT and only $5 if you RSVP. Jasmine's great she pushes you to the max and I always wake up sore the next day! Thanks guys keep up the great work! read more

Love this gym. Everyone there is really friendly and helpful. If you message the owner, he will get back to you ASAP. I've been here for about 2 years now and I wouldn't dream of going back to a commercial gym. You'll never leave this place without having an amazing workout. There's so much equipment that you never have to be waiting for something. Best gym in Fresno! read more

Best powerlifting gym out there hands down, this is no commercial gym. This is a gym where only serious people come to

Had a blast working out. Staff is friendly and informative! The grand reopening is chill. I hope it continues to be like this on normal days! Lift heavy, lift plenty! read more

Such an awesome gym! The equipment is great, the staff are very helpful, and the vibe is absolutely amazing. I had my best workout in a month yesterday when coming here for the first time; definitely check it out! read more

I switched to this gym from a commercial one to train with equipment that is similar to competition in the IPF, and I've never looked back since. They have everything you need to get what you need done. The environment is perfect for people that are serious about lifting, and you don't have to worry about waiting to squat or use other equipment because everyone is nice and approachable. I wish people would put their weights back more often, but they address every issue that comes up and make it known that they want people cleaning up after themselves which I think is important. They take care of their gym and are always looking to upgrade or get new equipment for their members. read more

I have a training program set up through the Iron Office. And it's kicking my butt! William is very attentive and makes sure to check in to make sure I'm doing okay. He is very knowledgeable and takes the time to answer any questions to make sure he's am set up for success. If you're looking for one on one training or already have the basics down and just need help with programming your sessions this is definitely the place to go. read more
