NINE Iron Sports athletes made it to Las Vegas NATIONAL Finals. That's 9 out of 86 athletes across…read morethe country. Out of curiosity I looked up how many ninja gyms there are in the US... 191. That means, if every gym was equal, they would send less than 1/2 of an athlete... Iron sports sent NINE! BOOM Do you want to be a champion? You can be one here. If you just want fun, oh my gosh.... when my daughter had her 6th birthday party this year, my favorite part of the entire event was watching the looks on all the parents' faces. Every one of them was beaming. It is FUN watching your kid do this stuff. And inspiring too... cuz guess who started working out??? Me. The coaches are supportive and encouraging. When they see SuzieQ working on something (not in class, just on her own) they whoop and cheer her victories. They say hello when she walks in. She's six, but they say hello. They acknowledge her. That's vital because it builds a sense of belonging.

This gym gave me total life... I walked in and the check in guy asked me if I liked pain (right as…read moreI signed off on the waiver). ... Crazy joke, but my answer was nooooooo.... Anywho, they were nice to escort me to the locker area. It was nice and tidy. Had a ladies shower and a restroom. The gym is a bit laxed, so it started off a bit rocky in that I didnt realize that the class has started without me. We started the class running laps outside. And came in for some heavy stretching and overheas bar work! That's when things got real. Tip no. 1 dont wear gloves, use plenty of hand/climbing chalk. It makes a great difference. Also, when you want to store things in the lockers, bring your own lock! They dont have any there. We transitioned into squats and intense leg work... Woooooooooow (Im still feeling it today). We moves upstairs, where I found a Ninja Warrior's dream. It was everything from Rock Climbing Walls (easy, medium, and hard), to overhead bars, overhead balls (of all sizes). It was aweeeeeeesome!!! The instructors, Sam & Sam, were doubly awesome! They made sure that an amateur Ninja Warrior like me did not feel left out, modified exercises to help me build my endurance and strength, and helped me make sure I did them correctly to prevent injury. We finishes the class by completing an intense ab workout!!! Although I am super sore today, I loved the class and will def be back!

I started my journey here in 2017. I can honestly say Ball and Chain CrossFit is something special…read more From the moment you walk in, you feel welcomed. Not judged, not intimidated, just supported. The coaches are exceptional. They take the time to explain movements clearly, offer thoughtful corrections, and genuinely care about your progress. Whether you're brand new to CrossFit or a seasoned athlete, they meet you where you are and push you in the best way possible. You can tell they're knowledgeable, attentive, and passionate about helping every member succeed safely. The community is just as strong as the coaching. Everyone encourages each other, celebrates wins (big and small), and shows up consistently- in and out of the gym. It's the kind of environment where you build friendships, not just fitness. The energy during classes is motivating, and you never feel like you're doing it alone. The programming is top-tier. Workouts are challenging but intentional; balanced, progressive, and designed to build real strength and conditioning over time. There's a clear structure, and you can see measurable improvement if you stay consistent. If you're looking for a gym with incredible coaching, supportive people, and smart programming that delivers results, this is it. Highly recommend to anyone wanting more than just a workout, but is looking to build a community.

The instructors are awesome and did a great job of making me, as a complete newbie, comfortable with it. They definitely take their time to work with you and make sure you understand the movements and have the confidence to do it. The majority of my workouts are at lunch and Kari is the instructor. Can't speak highly enough about her and how she's worked with me, as well as John and everyone else over there. They have a great facility and do a great job of keeping it clean and very inviting. They're serious when they say No Egos. It can definitely be intimidating but the coaches and the other members make you feel right at home regardless of your level or experience. Don't put it off as long as I did. Give Ball & Chain a shot, come workout with us.

Whether you're a newbie in the gym, getting back into it, or an athlete, they've got facilities and equipment for you. They have some equipment that you just can't find in most gyms that elevates the whole experience. The owners do a great job of making sure they have the latest and greatest AND all the classic pieces you need. They have a bunch of cool extras too- like gym merch, meals and pre/intra/post workout drinks to purchase, and even supplement samples. Overall, a great place to workout. I recommend to everyone.

Are you a sucker for pain? You've found your spot if the answer is yes…read more Not really, I'm kidding, it's only kinda painful. Don't let the industrious look of Be Strong intimidate you. I highly recommend this gym if you're looking for quality over quantity. The owner teaches most of the classes and he has proven to be a real fitness instructor. You'll always have detailed instructions on the workout moves, modifications, and a continuous screening of your form during workouts. This ensures your time isn't wasted and you don't hurt yourself. There are classes as early as 5:30am and as late as 7:00pm. I recommend being all in if you join here. The workouts are comprehensive in that you get a mix of strength and HIIT/more cardio as long as you attend at least three times per week. The owner - Walter - makes no bones about this and he seems personally invested in each of his members. In my first consult I was provided a Zoom meeting to discuss goals, then a 1:1 workout so that he could gauge my fitness level. Last year I couldn't commit to three days per week, so he was nice enough to not take my money and recommended that I find a better fit. I'm happy to see Be Strong still operating post-COVID. The safety measures in place are strict, so be willing to following instructions.

He's also just a genuinely good guy, not just a coach. This gym is a great place for kids who want to learn boxing, build confidence, and actually work toward becoming champions.

My son and I joined the gym Jan 2022, I cancelled our member in March 2022 with his girlfriend because we were leaving town in May 2022 for the summer. I was not charged in April 2022, so I thought everything was OK because initial membership you pay 1st and last months dues and we stop coming in April 2022 so everything was fine. I checked my flex account in July and realized charges reinstated in May, June, and July (2022) from Katy Boxing. So when I got back to town in July 2022 I went to the gym to talk with Rodney. I let him know I was still being charged and I was definitely going to return to the gym in September when school started for my son. So he said he would make it right. I also told Rodney I had funds in my flex account that needed to be spent before August 2022 and I wanted to pay in advance for the school year 2022-2023. Rodney gave me a credit for the months I was being charged after I cancelled to correct the invalid charges for (May,June, &July 2022) and said I could use those funds for fall of 2022 Sept, Oct, & Nov when i returned to the gym. I told him I also wanted to pay in advance for (2023) Feb, Mar, & April since i needed to spend those flex accountfunds. He agreed said I he would discount May (50% off). Since i was paying so far in advance. I had $400 to spend I even bought a bag that I didn't need or get until Oct just to support his business. The bags weren't even in. We agreed I was paid up until June 1, 2023. We did not go to the gym in during the holidays Dec 2022 and Jan 2023. When we returned to the gym in September 2022 everything was fine, in January 2023 they (his girlfriend) started trying to charge my card again. I let her know I was paid up until June 1. Good thing the flex card changes every year because the transactions were declined. When March came Rodney brings me in his office to discuss my account. He said I was only paying like $25/month and I hadn't paid since July 2022. I explained to him we agreed I paid up until June 1. Unfortunately, he doesn't remember our agreement and the receipts don't explain the details of our agreement. So a couple days later I bring my computer to explain our agreement because he said he doesn't remember and he THROWS A FULL OUT TEMPER TANTRUM and says he doesn't understand the payments/receipts. He's yelling saying I only paid $25/month??? Amounts that were not correct. I reminded him we did not come to the gym April, May, June, & July 2022. I reminded him that I came on July 18 and paid $373 and paid in advance for Feb, Mar, April, & May 2023. AFTER I had already paid July 1 2022. I tried to show him the receipts. He wouldn't listen and told me to get out, my businessis no longer wanted. I reminded him in June 2022 I gave him a total of $473 and I wasn't even coming because I work abroad during the summer. I sent him the receipts in text and explained again but to no avail he conveniently didn't understand. He said membersip dues is month to month and I paid months that I did not attend. I explained to him that I would not have paid in advance if this was the case. Needless to say we will not return and I DO NOT recommend anyone to patrons his business until he gets a book keeping system that holds both parties accountable. We went to Katy Boxing one day a week (Wed), my son enjoyed the classes but if the coach is out of control and doesn't know how to handle his business with patrons, I will not return. I recommend ALL customers to pay monthly and get a detailed receipt for whatever service you pay for. DO NOT ALLOW THEM TO SAVE YOUR CREDIT CARD INFO. I don't understand the out of control TEMPER, I never raised my voice and always treated him with respect. Extremely disappointing because my son actually enjoyed training with me once a week. I am attaching the payments so customers can see for themselves.
