The Iron Stronghold

I signed up to The Iron Stonghold for a three month period with programming, due to being on a project in the area fully expecting a usual gym with no personality. What I actually got was one of the best gym experience I've ever had, from the moment you walk in you are greeted warmly and made to feel part of the family, by Dan, Lisa and customers alike. Dan's programming has made me stronger and refined my technique greatly so I can now feel comfortable when heading into my max zones. While I am no longer at the gym I am keeping up the programming online due to how effective it has been.I met some genuinely good people there and was sad to leave, keep up the good work mate and I wish you guys all the best.Kind regardsAlistair HardieP.S I still want a T-Shirt!! LOL

The ultimate place for all strength and conditioning training needs. Excellent atmosphere with super encouraging members of ALL levels and capabilities. Dan runs a tight ship and caters for every individual and their needs, from competitive powerlifters to helping mums get healthy, fit and strong - the place to be!

For years, I have benefited from Dan's vast knowledge of body movement and training. The Iron Stronghold should be the first choice of anyone looking to gain strength and improve body composition. Value for money is impeccable, with affordable one-on-one coaching sessions and very fairly priced training programs. The atmosphere is friendly, supportive and completely void of judgement. I could not recommend The Iron Stronghold more highly.

dan worked on my muscles with his smooth genji arms. his long oily body made sure i always felt like i belonged at the iron strong hold, you can be sure ill be coming back every day. ;)

Best gym in the area for strength based training. They cater for everyone and will get you the results your after no matter your goal. It's not some big franchise either, it feels like a welcoming family all the time. Dan's online coaching is also excellent and extremely effective and professional.

Great place run by great people, who are more than willing to take the time to help you with an exercise. If I still lived in the area I'd be signing up faster than Dan can teach you how to do a deadlift.

Excellent gym, great community Dan really knows how to coach and together with Lisa runs, what I think is the best gym in the far south coast.

If you're looking for gym to get stronger, faster, lighter, handsomer, smarter and richer then the iron stronghold is where you need to go on the south coast. Dan is a fantastic coach with years of experience and passion for lifting that no one else has for 100kms in any direction

Absolutely love this gym and by far the best in the far south coast! easy 5 minute drive from Merimbula making it super easy for those visiting the Bega Valley to access. The owner Dan is very approachable and has a wide range of knowledge and experience across strength sports and conditioning. The environment in this gym is like no other and you will be hooked from your first visit. This gym is for everyone no matter how inexperienced you may be!

I love this gym! It has everything you need for strength training. On top of the excellent facilities the owner, Dan, has gone above and beyond to help me with various health issues. This was after I had been told by other health professionals that I would have to give up lifting.Strength training can benefit everyone, and Dan is there to help people of every level get fitter and stronger. Plus it's 24 hour! So no excuses.
