Iron Bird Fitness

Apr 2023

I've been working with Sam at Iron bird Fitness for 8 months after I hit a plateau on my weight loss. We focus on body weight exercise, bio mechanics and resistance training. In that time my vitals have improved to the point that my primary physician has complimented me and inquired about my success. Every time I see Sam he remarks on my progress and how much stronger I'm getting. Although i feel stronger and am able to complete demanding tasks easier and pain free I didn't really believe him. Yesterday he sat me down and took measurements that made me recognize the progress. I've changed my body fat percentage by 8 percent along with dropping my overall body weight by 3 percent on top of what i had lost before starting. The changes we've made and the way I'm exercising is not only sustainable and challenging but enjoyable. His business is transitioning from a space in the tower district to a facility on Shaw and Blackstone and while I had initial reservations about the change I see them as positive and I'm supportive of the direction he and his team are moving. I don't post these photos lightly but I would like to support the team at Iron Bird Fitness and recommend them.

Just started doing group workouts here and it's been SO GOOD! The workouts are intense so my body feels it, but also, the trainers are good about letting you go at your own pace and encourage you to listen to your body (while also pushing it a bit. Getting stronger) Kind, supportive, motivational people to do workouts with

Iron Bird has a culture that is unique and positive. I really love it here! I was ready to start investing in myself for a healthier lifestyle and the environment (safe space, no judgment), the people, the community of the gym really made me feel welcomed and encouraged. I like the different fitness classes that are provided (kick boxing, strength training, cardio, yoga, breath work) along with occasional community hikes. The owner is incredibly kind and encouraging as well as all of the trainers. There is one-on-one membership but I chose the group membership because I like working out with other people. My membership comes with a nutritionist that helps with ideas and tools to eat healthier and something that actually fits me. It's not just a cookie cutter diet meal plan. We meet once a month to check in and talk about small term goals, how I can show up for myself to be successful and how I can achieve my long term goals too. At the end of each session I get a report of our check in notes on what we talked about. I like that because I can refer back to what was discussed. The nutritionist also takes pictures, measures and weighs me every month. There is an app the nutritionist uploads the monthly progress information and pictures onto so I can track my progress as well. The gym is on the smaller side but just as effective. For me, it has everything you need to get a good work out because it has a lot of good quality machines. It's not like a regular commercial gym where you can walk in at anytime to workout because there are scheduled classes. They have an app where you can sign up for the different classes you want to train and keep track of what classes are available.
