You’ll train with a woodland backdrop and a meadow out in front with sheep and horses roaming.

Tonight a few of our existing members got to train on the new gym floor for the first time.
Watching people put the space through its paces while looking out across the meadow felt like a big milestone!
Fresh air, great views and a community of good people putting in the work.
There’s still plenty to do, but we’re getting closer every week. If all goes to plan, we’re hoping to start running sessions here in the next couple of weeks.
Exciting times ahead. 🔥
Every day it looks a little different.
A few months ago this was just an idea.
Now the containers are in, the structure is taking shape, and Iron Acre is starting to feel real.
There’s still plenty to do, but that’s part of the process.
Built by hand.
Built with purpose.
Built for people who want more than just another place to train.
The vision has always been simple:
Train hard. Get outside. Build strength. Build community.
We’re getting closer.
🔥 Find Your Fire.
Big week ticked off here with the first container cut. A huge help from in getting it done.
Thanks to Wayne from Claydon Aggregates for the hardcore delivery
