To say I had an amazing time at Steel strength Training is an understatement.. The program was tailored to my specific needs and has been unlike any I’ve ever signed up for. The workouts are personalized and the coaches were always making sure I was utilizing the correct form, technique and reps. Special shout-out to Coach Phil, Coach Jared and Coach Hayden for their special attention and making sure I was motivated throughout the workout! Coach Nate is incredible and made sure I was adjusting to the program well. The vibe is great with friendly faces and great music definitely put me in the right headspace to workout and do more!! Gonna miss working out here!! Y’all rock!! 💪 More...

I joined after I broke my wrist visiting Birmingham for the winter. I wanted to get my strength back and stay physically fit. They were great to work with. The equipment was excellent and the training was what I needed. The staff are the friendliest and nicest group of people. They tailor the training to your needs. I hope to go back next year when visiting. More...

I’ve been very pleased with my experience at Steel. They have a great facility, wonderful coaches, and effective programming. I’ve been working out with them for the past five weeks, and I’ve been blown away by the results I’ve seen so far. The workouts go by pretty quickly, so the time commitment is easy to maintain with my schedule. The coaches have been really good with instruction and support. I have specific fitness goals, and the staff has been awesome with helping me work towards those goals. It’s worth the investment in yourself. Give them a call. I wish I had done it sooner. More...

I love my gym! Still seems crazy for me to be saying that. I am 56 years old and have always hated exercising. Therefore, I've never done it consistently. I went to Steel with a friend and it was great! I've been going for two years now 3 times a week. It makes me feel proud and strong. I have more energy. It has improved my balance and given me motivation to lose weight. The trainers are skilled and very helpful in pushing you to do your best while also providing needed modifications depending on your specific situation. We have moved to a new, larger location, so there will be plenty of room for you. Now is a great time to check it out. You're worth it! More...

Best gym experience I’ve ever had. I have been in and out of gyms for the past few years. I was never able to stick with it long enough to produce results. I submitted a form on the website and honestly expected to try it and probably quit again. Nate called me and talked through my personal goals and how he would work with me to achieve them. Before I even stepped in the gym Nate was holding me accountable and pushing me in the right direction. The staff is great and is very knowledgeable and personable. The workouts are catered to each individual. if you are having any issues in the gym they won’t downplay it. They will work with you to fix the issue or work around it while still making progress. The structure of the classes is exactly what i was looking for. I go to sessions with up to 8 clients working out at the time and it’s a great number. Initially, I was worried that I would feel like I was on my own, but that could not be farther from the truth. I still feel as though i’m in a 1 on 1 with a trainer. They are very attentive and really want to see you succeed. And if 8 still feels like too many people for you, there are other options. On top of the workouts Nate and the staff will help you with sustainable nutrition goals to help you even more. They are also very good about keeping in communication to check on you. You will immediately feel welcomed and wanted here and that has been the difference for me. In just a month i’ve seen a tremendous shift in the way I look and feel. This place is great and I would recommend it to anyone. Regardless of your age or experience you will succeed at Steel Strength Training. If you’re looking for positive changes and a great community this is the spot. More...

I am new to strength training. Following physical therapy for a broken ankle, Steel Strength Training was recommended to me as a place to learn how to do strength training safely. From my first contact with Nate, I have felt comfortable and welcomed. Nate took time to answer my questions and explain the program. When I started in the gym Nate, Scout, and the other trainers offered great instruction, encouragement, and supervision. I am one month in and feel great. I enjoy the balance of individual attention and group camaraderie that the open space allows. I also appreciate that the staff offer accountability for the schedule I set and the goals that I am trying to reach. I am stronger, have improved range of motion, and am slimmer. Most importantly I feel great and getting stronger in the gym has helped me to better enjoy my other activities outside of the gym. I am glad I joined Steel Strength Training, and recommend it to anyone wanting to get stronger and healthier. More...

I met the awesome owner, Nate, through a small group with his wife. He is knowledgeable about health, fitness, and nutrition. The gym’s primary focus is strength training vs. HIIT/cardio (as you could probably tell by the name). As someone who has struggled with body image, disordered eating, and gym intimidation, a gym being able to make me feel comfortable and included is a BIG thing. The trainers (& other members) know you by name and are real normal people! The location has moved to an awesome/beautiful space near Pepper Place as well. I’ve been at Steel for over a year now and am very satisfied with my experience. If you’ve been looking for a place to call your fitness home, I cannot recommend enough! More...

Best gym I’ve ever been to! I started about a month ago feeling completely out of shape with a history of starting new programs with a lot of determination only to quickly lose interest or start feeling discouraged and so quit. But the Steel programs meets you exactly where you are. My first workouts were challenging but not defeating, and all of the trainers are so helpful and encouraging. Definitely a no-judgement attitude from everyone. After a month, I am still going regularly because I actually look forward to going to work out. Cannot recommend this place highly enough. More...

I joined Steel strength on recommendation of a dear friend. Through the pandemic I had gained alot of weight and used to feel horrible with my body aching and hurting on most days especially in the lower back region after an incident I had many years ago. Nate has been a God sent, very attentive and knowledgeable and very helpful throughout the journey of 4 months there. I have lost 10 lbs while continued to gain muscle strength and able to lift amounts I never thought I could. Throughout our lives, we have moments that truly change the way we live and for me this was one of them. Although I had to leave the city but Steel has set me on a path that continues to to be an essential part of my daily life. More...

I was starting over when I joined Steel Strength Training(SST) over a year ago. I lacked discipline, motivation and endurance, just to name a few things! My first stumbling block to conquer was my lack of knowledge/familiarity of gym terminology like ‘rows’, inverted rows’, and ‘pull-aparts’. There were ‘barbells’, ‘kettlebells’, ‘dumbbells’ and ‘bands’. Then there was ‘form’! Thanks to Steel’s professional and dedicated trainers, I’ve learned so much and have made great progress in my strength training! I’m 67 years old and am now at DL(deadlifting) 135 pounds!!! I began at 35. The staff is positive, always encouraging and pushing me to work hard. I am sooo motivated, so much stronger and able to complete each workout session! If you are looking for a gym where you can get professional training, lots of support and positive feedback from staff and gym members, Steel Strength Training is the place! More...

As someone who is shy, unathletic and hesitant to try new things, I consider myself incredibly lucky to have found this place. One big advantage over the other gyms that I have tried is the way they structure the "classes". Instead of everyone doing the same thing at the same time, each person has a specific workout written out for them, that they take to their own station and perform at their own speed. There's no holding the class up because you don't know what an RDL is, there's no trying to figure out what a beginner variation of a pull up is while everyone else is cranking them out like Navy SEALs, there's no pressure. And more importantly, there's time to learn how to do things correctly. That's where the coaches come in. I continue to be impressed with the staff, they manage to be attentive and encouraging without being overbearing or disinterested. No one at this place has the vibe of a drill sergeant or motivational speaker, neither of which I personally find motivating. They're just down to earth, nice, knowledgeable people who want to see you succeed. Last point I'll make in this novella, if you want to see changes in your body, weight training is a great, if not the best way to do it because it rewards consistency in a way that I think a lot of other types of training do not. While you are waiting impatiently for the lbs to drop and the 6 pack to emerge, you get to see the weight go up really quickly so you can know that its working, things are changing, and you are making progress. Having that constant reassurance that you are moving forward makes the consistency much easier, and as everyone knows, consistency is everything. So give it a try, and try it here! Also there's very little cardio, and cardio sucks. More...
