Iron Fist Fitness, LLC

I found this gym online when I moved to Milwaukee from the east coast. I was looking for a gym with a focus on lifting and a strong community and that’s exactly what I’ve found at iron fist! Elena and Shannon are so welcoming and support everyone in the way that they need. I’m part of the women’s evolve program and I love it! The workouts can be modified for any level of fitness and it’s so nice to be part of a strong group of positive women all working towards individual fitness goals. It’s the best part of my week every week! 10/10 would recommend!

I train with Elena here at Iron Fist, and it has been life-changing. I have struggled with chronic pain, fatigue, spinal instability and nerve issues for several years, and as someone who has never been athletic (on top of all the health issues), I never thought weight lifting could be for me. Elena has helped me fall in love with it by adapting her training to my needs, adjusting positions if my joints hurt, and tailoring my workout if I am currently in a flare. She is an extremely kind, empathetic, smart human being who tells you up front how passionate she is about making training accessible to everyone, regardless of age, activity level, and even disability. Both Elena and the other owner, Shannon, are absolute gems who make you feel at home in the gym and cheer you on the whole time. I would recommend Iron Fist to ANYONE who wants to get strong, especially if you have always felt intimidated by gyms and want to learn how to move your body in a way that is safe and healthy for you. Thank you Elena for giving me my movement and confidence back :)

Love this place. I train with the owner, Shannon, who is an awesome trainer and an even better human. The other trainers I have met are all wonderful too. It's a smaller gym, which makes everything feel more personal and comfortable. Its like a supportive, family environment. There's a variety of equipment, and classes if training on your own is not your thing. I'm mostly a sedentary person, but I actually look forward to my workouts here.

I love going to my Evolve Me classes with Coach Elena! She’s always so supportive and motivating, which makes every session feel rewarding. The facility is super clean and organized, and they have all the equipment you need to reach your fitness goals. I especially look forward to the boxing classes. They’re fun, high-energy, and I love that they offer drop-ins so I can even bring a friend along. Definitely recommend! 🥊✨

I absolutely love this gym! The trainers are knowledgeable and always willing to help. I received some personal training here that made a huge difference in my workouts, my trainer Elena encouraged me all the way. I have enjoyed a variety of classes that were challenging and fun. The sauna is a fantastic bonus its relaxing a good way to wind down after workout or just alone for relaxation/detox. The gym is welcoming, well equipped for every level of fitness goals.
