Virginia Beach Iron Gym

Was in town for work looking for a bodybuilder type gym and boy did we find one! This place has everything, seriously one of the largest ones I've been to (Similar to Madhouse Atlanta and Destination Dallas) tons of older and newer types of equipment (love some of the older brands that you don't see anymore) a ton of new stuff I've never used as well. Day pass is a great price, love the dark aesthetics, will be returning in the future!

Simply put VB Iron is a God Tier gym. For those that are unaware…the Holy Trinity of gyms on the east coast are DMV Iron, VB Iron, and Exile fitness. VB Iron has hands down THE BEST lifting atmosphere of the three. (Which is damn impressive). Regardless of how you feel, walking through the doors feels like getting hit with a max dose of Tren…literally making it impossible not to get the best workout of your entire life. On top of that, (because of the way the gym is run), it feels like an elite private club reserved only for the most serious of lifters. You never have to wait for machines and will always feel driven to work harder than last time. It should be obvious at this point, but I should mention they also have one of the greatest selections of modern and old school equipment of any gym anywhere period. State of the art and 90’s era all in one. If you haven’t trained at VB Iron then you have no idea what a God Tier gym is like. If you live close you can’t call yourself a serious lifter without getting a membership. If you live far away it is definitely a destination gym worth traveling to visit.

As a natural pro bodybuilder, I truly love this place and genuinely look forward to going to this gym! Size - this place is huge. Used to be a movie theater. So it looks like a warehouse inside. There is truly room to spread out in there. Equipment - so...many...machines...plus more than one variety of plates and barbells. Most machines have around 4 options, and slightly different variations. Never wait on equipment - this is not a box gym at all. Though you pay more via monthly rates than the box gyms, what you're truly paying for is never having to deal with the crowds or other members hogging equipment. Regularly cleaned - I see staff cleaning in there all the time. You see the guy walking around with a giant backpack vacuum. And also you see the guys using a fork lift to literally mop underneath the machines as well. This is a HUGE deal to me. Private - it's dark in there, but in a good way. Between the low lighting, the huge space, and the nicely spread out equipment, it often feels like you are lifting in peaceful privacy. I'm usually nervous to leave reviews of my gym when I absolutely love it...just out of worry that it will get too crowded. But I trust this leadership to preserve the exclusive atmosphere. Thank you Kenny and Joe for making this place awesome!

One of the best gyms in the area hands down! Probably one of the fastest water fountains I’ve ever used! The bathrooms are always squeaky clean and full stocked. I signed up for a year long membership because it was a great value. 10/10 recommend if your looking for a great gym with an even better community and atmosphere

Coming from Armbrust pro gym in Denver, I thought I’d never find another gym like it…that was until I stepped into vb iron. So much equipment I have to Google how to use half of it hah. The staff is kind an welcoming as well. One of the top gyms in the country IMO 💪🤘
