This is an awesome powerlifting gym. Paul the owner really made me feel welcome and as well as the community of members. I’m seeing really good results after a few months.
This gym has a great vibe and a welcoming community. As a female, I’ve felt completely comfortable not just overall, but also asking for help from any member without fear of judgment. Paul is incredibly knowledgeable, and his approach to training is both educational and supportive.

Best gym in Brisbane. Old school spit and sawdust type gym! Great place to push some tin! Owner was a sound guy aswell
I strongly recommend training with Coach Paul to improve your strength. The amount of knowledge this man knows is incredible and has drastically improved my fitness, strength and overall confidence. Check out Iron underground!
A brilliant gym! Stacked with the classic style quality equipment needed for strength sports. The owner, Paul is chilled with abundant knowledge and experience thus a great trainer. Great environment to train in, where members are respectful and friendly, which is a massive bonus. Definitely the place to be if you're local, a Northsider or visiting Brisbane!
I absolutely recommend this gym for anyone wanting true lasting results when it comes to fitness, body sculpting, muscle building and general body health. Paul has a wealth of knowledge and experience and has the world class results above any other gym or trainer i know. Get in there!
The owner Paul is very patient and knowledgable to newcomers and advanced lifters alike.

Been going for a number of months and it’s a great experience from the culture to the coaching. Highly recommend
Brilliant gym with a great atmosphere. Amazing for strength sports but also for the person looking to improve themselves or their athletic achievements. My new home
Best powerlifting gym in Brisbane. Immaculate vibes, friendly and helpful.
Amazing gym, very motivating environment 🤩
authentic powerlifting gym, the space available to train is unmatched
Paul has been my powerlifting coach for just over one year now. He is awesome at what he does! Not only does he have knowledge on form and technique but he also knows how to help and rehab injuries. I came to Paul with an injured shoulder that I had been doing physio for 3 years to fix (with no luck).

Paul has been my powerlifting coach for just over one year now. He is awesome at what he does! Not only does he have knowledge on form and technique but he also knows how to help and rehab injuries. I came to Paul with an injured shoulder that I had been doing physio for 3 years to fix (with no luck). We strengthened all of the muscles around it and Paul taught me the proper technique for my lifts. My shoulder was fixed in 3 months time. I am now benching over double what I could before and smashing my training. I can’t wait to compete in a powerlifting comp in the future (something I never thought I’d say coming from a team sport and cardio background). If you’re thinking about going to Iron Underground, JUST DO IT! Less

Always try get here when in Brisbane. The best around !
I could not recommend any other gym in Brisbane - Iron Underground is truly the best. After having some day pass sessions with a mate of mine, I couldn’t get over the general environment of the gym.

I cant say enough good things about this team. The team at Iron Underground are incredibly attentive and knowledgeable! They have helped me with lower back issue I have had for years. Now I’m able to lift more comfortably. The team there are attentive and genuinely care about your progress. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a gym with a supportive environment
This is an awesome powerlifting focused gym with a tight-knit community. The owner Paul welcomed me in February and I’ve made awesome progress since then on all lifts! Great atmosphere within the gym that has all the equipment you need and more 💪
Outstanding gym, equipment, staff and training environment. It's the place to go for expert guidance on competitive lifting or building the body you want.
Dedication, motivation, and an amazing amount of knowledge. Paul is a true professional. You will smash your goals at this place.

This is a great gym. Probably one of the best I have been to in my life. Good positive peer culture. Excellent support team. The staff help you reach your goals. It is an old school hard work get rewarded gym. Paul the owner is a great mentor and trainer. I would recommend this for anyone wanting to grow and develop their strength.
Paul is a top tier coach, great environment to immerse yourself in
This gym has some quality equipment and an even better training atmosphere. Paul has kept this iconic powerlifting gym authentic and hardcore.
Iron Underground is an old school, no non-sense powerlifting and strength gym. It is run by the owner Paul, who has a wealth of knowledge and experience. If you are serious about moving respectable numbers and getting form right, I highly recommend training with Paul. He's been in this game a long time and there is a lot to learn.
A truly unique gym focused on self-improvement and strength, be it for physique sports, strongman or powerlifting. The equipment seems to have been all hand picked for specific reasons, the atmosphere is challenging yet welcoming, and the facilities are kept extremely well maintained. A hidden gem.
Authenticity & dynamic are the words that come to mind when I think this gym. Iron Underground gives you a different take to powerlifting. Not only about the aesthetics but also strength goals are achieved with everyone with a common goal which sets that’s aside from a commercial gym. The owner/coach is very knowledgeable really tweaks out those habits which makes you a better lifter and athlete.

Iron underground is such a classic gym and has nothing but great people. Paul has taught me so much in such a short amount of time with powerlifting and strength training in general. Couldn’t recommend a better gym
This gym is awesome! I have always been to the generic franchised gyms but nothing compares to this! The atmosphere and the people are great especially the owner. He’s always so willing to help out with anyone who has any questions. He has helped me with technique and holds me accountable to be fit. I highly recommend coming into the gym, I’ve had nothing but the best experience here.
Down to earth gym with an absolutely fantastic community of dedicated and fun people who all push and support each other each and every session. Can't imagine hitting up anywhere else now.
Great Powerlifting Gym that produces Champions. Iron Underground is run by hardworking and dedicated owner who can help you achieve your fitness goals.
Best gym in Brisbane - best atmosphere, culture, and all the equipment you need to become the best lifter you could possibly be.

A ‘one of a kind’ gym. Absolute standout within the powerlifting community. I love how the gyms history is plastered all over its walls. Just goes to show it’s dedication, participation and how it’s been ‘home’ to some outstanding athletes within the powerlifting community. Well done Paulie T
Great gym. So much better than a commercial gym. Love the equipment. Absolutely worthwhile if you are looking to get stronger. I train with Hannah who is a great exercise scientist with lots of knowledge and is a very impressive powerlifter!
Good cupping here
I have just reffed at a powerlifting comp at Iron Underground. It's a great venue, the comp was well organised, and every time I've been to IU, I've felt welcome! I thoroughly recommend Iron Underground!
The great gym in Brisbane!!
If you're searching for the ultimate powerlifting experience, don't look any further. Iron Underground is the place to be, where strength and unity meet the sweet melodies of iron. Train like a champion, be welcomed like family, and remember that legends are made within these sacred walls.
Recently ordered some knee sleeves online which were promptly lost by AusPost. Paul didn't hesitate to send out another set, organising everything himself so I could get back in the squat rack. Excellent customer service, will 100% be coming back.

There is no better gym in Brisbane if you are serious about your training. Where strength is built and back bone found. Could not recommend IU highly enough #builtintheunderground Less
I started training with Paul when I moved to Brisbane just under two years ago. He is by far the best coach I have ever worked with and knows the sport of powerlifting better then anyone I have come across. I can't recommend the gym enough from the equipment to the environment.
The best powerlifting gym in Brisbane! It has all the right equipment, Paul's an excellent coach who knows his stuff and the other members are like a family. Comps at IU are run perfectly and there's always someone willing to spot you.
Greatest gym on earth! A real place to build your mind and muscle!
Can’t speak highly enough of Paul and the crew at Iron Underground - great place - great people
Awesome gym and Paul is the best trainer. Thanks for helping me achieve my goals!!
No fuss gym however encourages you to be the best version of you that you can be
If you are serious about lifting or getting bigger, than check out the Iron Underground. But beware, phones are banned on the gym floor.
Everything you need to get strong AF.
Not only champion people but are great people at IU and very helpful to any level lifter. Look forward to competing PA here one day!!
The best gym in the world that I've ever been to!
Really awesome place to gain strength and power, great people and many thanks to Paul and Graham for watching my technique!!
Highly knowledgeable and experienced coaches. Best equipped strength gym I've seen. Old school training philosophy's creating a strong workout environment.
Extremely knowledgeable coaches with experience and world class athletes under them. Best equipped strength training gym I've seen, and I don't say that lightly. Gym also has great, old school training philosophy's, which I dare say are contributing factors in its success.
I went to Paul seeking rehab for a long term leg injury. He fixed it and more. His professionalism, knowledge and ability to push you are incredible. Yes it was uncomfortable. Yes he drove me beyond what I expected. And yes, it was worth it. If you want a trainer and gym that does what they say they will and delivers results, then this is THE place to be, and Paul is the bloke to see.
Quality gym with knowledgeable coaches and exceptional equipment. Highly recommended.
Complete power and performance gym run by one of the most professional teams around
No pretentious garbage, no looking pretty. If you're after a gym which will challenge you, this is the place for you! Paul is hugely knowledgeable in all areas of powerlifting and runs his gym accordingly. If you want results, support and someone directly watching over you to ensure you reach your peak then you can not go past Iron Underground. I genuinely look forward to every time I train here.
Great gym, Paul is very welcoming and great a trainer as are all the staff and amazing members love training here
