Best in Hotlanta? Hah, more like best in the world!
Scott is so passionate about his work and is always on the lookout for more knowledge. He brings a down-home comfort to the training experience.
It used to bother me when he would show up to the training sessions in the tight, flaming lycra shorts and oiled up , but then I just realized that is the master trainer expressing himself in his art! What a beautiful thing! Also, he gave me good advice about tanning my underarms when I first started out in the fitness DVD market.
Thanks Atlanta Iron Sports and Scott!
Scott is a smart man with tons of experience. Don't let the opportunity to train with him slip by!
Scott is attentive, personable, and knowledgeable. There's no one better in the ATL!
Awesome gym! A gym where results are the goal and the owner works WITH you to achieve those results!!!!
Scott is tops! The gym lends itself to hardwork. Commercialism runs rampant in the fitness industry. Atlanta Iron is the way back to the future. I always leave feeling beat down and built up. Love you Scott. Forgive my inconsistency. :-)
The Atlanta Iron Sports Barbell Club is the place to get it all done. Highly recommended.
Scott is my nephew and his dedication to this Iron Sports Barbell Club is 110%. He does an awesome job and has made us all proud to be a part of him. You are the BEST Scott!!
I've known Scott for a long time and he is really great. He knows what he's talking about. He's gotten my husband through many competitions and he's won.
Offers the best power lifting training in the area, including equipment, bands, kettleballs, and chains.
They are more interested in helping you and making sure you get the training you need than most gyms I've come across. Truly a great experience.
Scott is an amazing strength coach who works with athletes from all sports and regular people with a variety of different goals.
As a firefighter for Dekalb County, I need to stay in pretty good physical condition. My life and the others' around me depend on it. I may not need a faster 40 or a higher vertical, but I do need strength when there is nothing left to give. This is where Atlanta Iron comes in. Sure it's tough, but what in life worth obtaining isn't? I know my family appreciates the changes I have made and yours will too.
Why is this the best gym in Atlanta? It's simple: This is where Rocky would come to work out and train. If you have ever wanted to realize your maximum potential in the gym, and be safe while doing it, this is the place for you.
Ivan Drago can keep his fancy machines and big sports clubs. I no longer need them!!!
Scott is really great at what he does. He brings enthusiasm and passion to his job so that you get pumped about working out! I've been going to him for 3 years and I've been able to achieve results that I couldn't have otherwise. He knows what he is doing and how to design a workout based on what you want and what will work best for you.
This gym is NOT for everyone... it's as far from mainstream America as you can get... like a Harley Davidson in front of an elementary school bike rack. AISBC is for serious athletes and powerlifters, and if you fall into that category and live near Duluth you'll never want to leave.
If you are looking to get fit or conditioned, this is the gym that you need to workout at. Scott is extremely knowledgeable and an awesome guy. Do yourself a favor and start training with Scott today.
Scott is a great trainer! He is very motivating and he actually makes me want to work out. My hard spots have literally transformed to lean muscle and I owe it all to Scott! Thanks Dude!
Scott Shetler is extremely knowledgeable and I've gleaned a lot from him as a trainer. His workouts are efficient and effective. And, if you want to know the whys of training like I do, he's a walking encyclopedia of knowledge!
Scott's strongest point is his holistic philosophy toward training. It is a totalitarian approach which integrates your complete lifestyle into your training program. The focus is not just the gym but all aspects of your life. Eating, rest, work ethic, relaxation, mental attitude & focus, intensity and individualized growth are a few examples of the bigger picture which his training approach develops. His gym is one of the few which develops the bigger picture not just your muscles.
Atlanta Iron Sports is a throwback to the days of old. The days when gymgoers worked out hard and the motivation for results and personal well-being trumped the current trends of gyms now operating as 'social factories'.
The owner, a Midwestern transplant, is as down-to-earth and open as they come. Money isn't the driving force, hence you won't see any crazy initiation fees. His main goal is helping YOU achieve your goals! And for that reason this gym boasts an attitude geared towards serious people striving to achieve results, regardless of their sport or skill level, while offering a gym rivaling its counterparts, 'the traditional', which have become more social havens, meat markets, etc, etc...
Scott gets results - period. This is the place to go if you're serious about reaching your goals. Scott is not just a rep counter - he actually educates you and your body improving every aspect of your workout to best suit you.
No smoothie bar, no tanning beds, and no gloves allowed.
Sweat, pain and blood are all in a days work.
Scot is totally dedicated to improving his client's performance and is an expert at kettlebells.
