Probably one of the best facilities I've been to. The owner of the gym and the Elite Iron team have a great lineage and legacy in equipped lifting. I had a lot of fun training here with top tier equipment (calibrated plates and eleiko bars) and the owner was super understanding and flexible with letting powerlifters train. Highly recommend this facility if you're in the northern Atlanta area. More...

If you’re a Powerlifter or weightlifter and not training with coach Townsend you’re not maximizing your potential. This gym is a great place to train - calibrated kg plates, competition racks/platforms and a great training atmosphere for equipped, raw Powerlifters and weightlifters alike. A must visit gym if you’re a lifter in the southeast! More...

Elite Iron has a positive and frenetic energy. There are plenty of platforms and racks in a cozy environment. There is a very convivial atmosphere. All of the equipment is in kilos that match competition grade. It is a great place to get fit and strong. I would highly recommend it to someone looking to commit to a serious routine. More...

If your looking for a great place to lift, this is it! Competition platforms, calibrated kilo plates and bars, ER and Eleiko racks, and more. I often lift very early in the morning, so I love that Elite Iron members have 24/7 access!!! Great atmosphere too! More...

Top-notch equipment and a top-notch coach. Six racks, dumbbells, and competition-grade barbells and plates.It isn’t flashy because it doesn’t need to be. You won’t find a better place to lift. More...

Hands down best equipped powerlifting gym in the Atlanta Metro and much more! You will not find anywhere else like it. Atmosphere out of this world. If you are serious about competitive lifting and want to train with the best and by the best you need to make that move. 24/7 access and training programs available with one on one coaching as well. -Will Thacker More...

Best Equipment in the state. Within my first 6 months of working with James I broke through a two year competition bench barrier.
All together my deadlift has gone up 50lbs, squat 35lbs. I broke an 11 year old equipped bench state record and got 5th at bench press nationals and it was only my second equipped meet.
