Steelmill Gym

Fantastic experience: Best gym I have been to in Houston. My absolute go to anytime I’m in town. Highly recommend and the staff is fantastic. Gym manager Andrew does a great job! Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Steel Mill, Iron Church, same thing. Everything you need to get jacked. Steel plates, free weights, power racks, deadlift platform, a chef and trainers on deck. Tyler, Julie, Fish, & Andrew are all 4 incredible trainers specializing in different areas to fit all of your needs wether it’s just packing on mass, getting into shape, strength goals, rehabbing an injury or going into contest prep, you’ll have some amazing talent to guide your journey.

Fantastic experience: Dope gym. Andrew is tight

Fantastic experience: Great gym! I weightlift a few times a week with a trainer. Kudos to Julia, she is the best! I go after work, which is usually peak time at other gyms. There is always plenty of equipment available. Friendly and motivating staff and members.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym , the staff is very good and the gym is high quality. If you’re serious about powerlifting or a professional athlete I recommend you join this gym to progress your career.

Fantastic experience: Steelmill Gym is the Best gym. It’s got an d school weightlifting vibe. The trainers and staff are friendly and super knowledgeable. They have great equipment and a fun vibe. It’s the best place to get a workout and make friends.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym. Great atmosphere.. every member is here to workout and motivate each other. Equipment reminds me of the old school grind. Front desk staff is always ready to help with any questions about equipment or general questions about their certified trainers. Ask for the manager Andrew to help you start your journey.

Fantastic experience: Genuinely enjoy the environment and definitely a place where I can come in, focus, and get a great workout. Front desk staff is very friendly!

Positive experience: Absolute gem. Classic bodybuilding type gym with loud music and people training seriously and with intention. Very friendly atmosphere and the trainers are all extremely helpful and knowledgeable (shoutout Julia). Plenty of bodybuilders but also plenty of beginners, good mix of all types of people with serious goals. Hardly gets packed which is great. Would give 5 stars but just wish the kettlebell section could be expanded.

Fantastic experience: I love this place so much, can’t say enough good things, Andrew, Tyler, John, Jules are all amazing folks to learn from, and the gym gives off the vibe of getting the work in and feeding off others working hard. Great home away from home.

Fantastic experience: Perfect gym. The people are great. Good gym etiquette is standard. You can tell the members love the gym as a lot of them wear Steelmill merch. I see a lot of the same regulars and everyone has been friendly to the point that we actually greet each other or talk every time. There are plenty of incredibly strong people lifting here, but also plenty of people newer in their lifting journey. The equipment setup is focused on weights and resistance machines. Only 3 treadmills. Wide variety of free weights and useful machines.

Negative experience: I was doing DB flys in front of the mirror and I got approached by a regular saying if I don’t stop staring at him we’re going to “square up”. I’ve been working out for a decade plus and I’ve never had an issue with one person. Management said it was escalated by both parties because I wouldn’t shake his hand after the incident. I asked to speak to the owner and manager refused to give me his information. Don’t go unless you like fist fights. Cancelled my membership immediately. Not a safe environment to better yourself. I would recommend any other gym.

Fantastic experience: Cool spot

Fantastic experience: Staff was nice, Amazing atmosphere and everything u need for a good workout!

Fantastic experience: Good gym but please turn down the music some as most are working out with headphones.

Negative experience: So the gym itself is pretty great! Awesome vibe and if you’re looking for a judgement free workout this is the spot. However, a two star review is warranted for treatment/misinformation here. I’ve been rehabbing a serious shoulder injury with my personal trainer for a while. I went into Steelmill knowing they have their own PTs and clarified with their front desk who’s signing me up whether I can bring my own trainer. I was told that I could do that as long as I paid the guest fee (which is absolutely fine). Fast forward to today where I’m being trained (and we’re not even trying to hide it or be cynical) and one of the other trainers there came over to us and was quite rude. I feel like that really could have been handled differently and I could have absolutely moved on and trained there without my PT. Unfortunately that experience really soured me on the place and I’ve chosen to unenroll from Steelmill. I’m hoping this was a one off but still wanted to post this for others.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with great trainers! Members all have good gym etiquette which is a huge plus.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym it gives me that old school bodybuilding gym vibes which is awesome!

Fantastic experience: I had my first workout today at the gym and it was great. Overall great environment and the staff I encountered was super helpful. Shouting out Max at the front desk in particular, he made my experience even better. Definitely recommend checking out SteelMill!

Fantastic experience: Great place! Love being here and the atmosphere it provides

Fantastic experience: Very friendly neighborhood gym. Has everything you really need and has never been super crowded.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. It's basically a box gym with heavy stuff. If you're looking for cardio, it's not your place, but the people are super friendly and trainers are AMAZING! I have been training with Molly Miller since September and she has literally changed my life. Not only have a I seen crazy results in my physical appearance, but she has helped heal my relationship with body image and around food and I am forever thankful to her for that! I highly suggest not just joining this place but also signing up for some sessions with the trainers.

Fantastic experience: This gym is very nice, a lot of work out equipment and it makes me feel comfortable and safe to work out here.

Fantastic experience: Such a solid body building gym. They have a few power racks for powerlifters as well.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. All business

Fantastic experience: Great gym for more private gym sessions. Clean facility and old school vibes 10/10 recommend!

Fantastic experience: This gym has been my home gym for over 2 years and I love how everyone here is friendly and helpful. The equipment is always kept up and clean and it is such an inspiring place to train. Always have a great workout and never busy like the corporate gyms. I love to support small businesses and SteelMill is a gem in the center of the city.

Fantastic experience: I love the feel and energy of SteelMill Gym. It’s my happy place and it was a blessing to have found it!

Fantastic experience: Great gym!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, 24/7 access, reasonable prices, all the free weights you could ask for. Just serious lifters here, not a bunch of soccer moms and soft-bodies taking up space.

Fantastic experience: The gym has pretty much everything you need for a solid workout. Clean place, good vibes and everyone is super cool. I've been training with Tyler, and I highly recommend it. Definitely pushes you past your comfort level and teaches you the right way (form) when lifting. Sometimes he gives good Netflix recommendations as well. Sometimes.

Fantastic experience: As a girl I always feel very comfortable here ☺️ The staff is very friendly & the equipment/cleanliness of the gym is kept up with. 24/7 access is great for my crazy schedule. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: AWESOME HARDCORE GYM. THE VIBE AND ENERGY TAKES YOU BACK TO OLD SCHOOL BODYBUILDING. IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A GREAT PUMP LOOK NO FURTHER.

Fantastic experience: -Hardcore gym -Air Conditioning. -Old school bodybuilding vibe -Solid equipment. -Not too busy. -Open 24 hour -Friendly staff -well maintained/clean

Fantastic experience: No bs gym , everyone in here is there to better themselves and are more than willing to show you the ropes if you’re a newbie , love the atmosphere and the vibe you get here !!

Fantastic experience: Been going here almost 2 years and love it. A huge part of that is my trainer, Tyler Picard, one of the best trainers in the city if you’re looking to take your fitness goals to the next level.

Fantastic experience: Old school, real weights, hardcore, no frills, but everything you need and nothing you don't. If you want people to notice your color coordinated outfit then this isn't the place for you

Fantastic experience: It’s got everything you need.

Fantastic experience: Cool little spot if your looking for something different than the typical global gym. I dropped by before a flight out of IAH. You can tell the owner knows what good equipment is. I would definitely make somewhere like this my home base if I was local to the area.

Positive experience: My go to gym in Houston. Great equipment and staff. It’s a little rugged, so don’t go expecting something like Lifetime or something.

Fantastic experience: Everything you need and 24hr access.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Heights area. Membership cost is not bad given the 24 hour access and great amount of equipment available. Staff is very friendly and helpful too.

Fantastic experience: I just quit this gym. Not because I didn't love it, but because I was leaving town. If it hadn't been for that, I'd have stayed forever. This is what a gym should be like. No complicated membership. No hard-sell. No schmoozing trainers. Just clean, well lit, loud music, and plenty of equipment and free weights to get the job done. You like machines, they got 'em. Free wights, got 'em. Cardio, (whatever...) they got that too. Into the basics: deadlifts, squats, bench press, they got that with plenty of bars (not bent), racks, benches and plates to satisfy the biggest bro. No bumper plates, though. Oly guys need not apply. Otherwise, Steel Mill is your good-to-go gym. And after the hard work is done, two well-maintained bathrooms with showers make a guy ready for whatever comes next. When I had to cancel, the guy behind the counter just asked my name, looked me up on the computer and said, "Ok, you're cancelled." Easy as pie. Just like it ought to be. Thank you Steel Mill! I'll miss you.

Negative experience: This gym advocates that the workers already masks and require their customers to wear masks but that is not true. Not a single person in the entire facility had a mask on or took any precautions to be sanitary in the MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC. Super unsanitary and disappointing.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to 24 hour fitness, golds gym, fitness connection and there’s nothing like STEEL MILL

Fantastic experience: This gym has all the equipment you would need for powerlifting or strength training in general. Trap bars, chalk, safety squat bars etc. In my opinion it's the best powerlifting gym in Houston.

Fantastic experience: Local gym with an old school vibe. People here are very friendly and will chat you up or leave you alone; either way it's a nice place to train. You see serious lifters training for competition, people maintaining physique, and some just starting out.

Fantastic experience: I know this is kinda dum question..but do they have machines that work out ur stomach n love handdels

Fantastic experience: This little no BS gym is the best boutique bodybuilder gym in Houston. Everyone that works there is super friendly and the atmosphere is super chill and not intimidating at all. Whether you're looking to get shredded, yoked, or totally swoll, the Steelmill crew will help you meet your fitness goals. If you need a sauna and tons of cardio machines, this is not the place. But if you're serious about lifting heavy weights and building muscle, then check out the Steelmill!

Fantastic experience: No frills but super friendly, low key gun space. It looks in pictures like it might be an intimidating place. In terms of gym space and equipment, the pictures are spot on. However, in terms of environment, the pictures could not be more wrong. The staff could not have been more welcoming from the moment I walked in the door. Bathrooms are individual and have showers and are clean and stocked with basic toiletries. There are no lockers available but the gear area in the back is plainly visible from the whole gym, or you are welcome to carry your bag around with you. Basic workout supplies like bottled water and preworkout are available in the back for a nominal fee, and there is a basic kitchen area with a microwave, sink, and countertop available for common use as well. Lifting equipment is all basic but in good shape for all your bodybuilding needs. Squat rack, deadlift mat, leg press, etc are on one side of the gym with plate and cable lower body machines and upper body machines and free weights are on the other side. Cardio equipment including a stair stepper and a few treadmills are in the front of the facility. I wish they had a spin machine in the mix of cardio equipment. Overall a great facility that is even better for the price.

Fantastic experience: This is a gym for anyone who just wants to work out or sculpt your body. None of the extra cost child care or classes that drive up the price if a gym membership. Simple and awesome gym.

Fantastic experience: Serious lifting environment, 24 hours, and the cardio machine to lifting equipment ratio is perfect. I've been a member here for a few weeks and can now confidently say that Steelmill is quickly becoming my second home.

Fantastic experience: This is hands down the best gym in Houston.

Positive experience: Honestly haven't been to this gym yet. I gave it a 4star because the images show a very detailed gym within a few pics. I would like to know the price, can anyone give me an answer, please??

Fantastic experience: Glad we found this place. We have been looking for a gym that we liked for almost 2 years. We finally resorted to just working out at home after many failed attempts to find something that suited us. The owners did a great job with Steelmill Gym. I have worked out at almost all of the bigger chains and "country clubs" in the Houston area and this is finally a place where you can just go and lift with good energy, good music, and never feel overwhelmed. The organization of the gym, the low-key feel, and the fact that owners were so relatable won us over. Glad to be new members. -Kim and Rene

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, not too pack even after work hours. Owner is a great guy and would recommend the place for locals and those coming into town. Great old school feel and great old school music always playing throughout.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. great gym with a great vibe

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. It's a mental zen place. The gym is a low key neighborhood spot that you can go to and put in work without worrying about crowded equipment or interruptions. I've seen around 10 people here at once during peak hours, which is plenty of room to move around. Outside of peak hours, you can have the whole gym to yourself. This is a simple, clean, organized gym with free weights and workout machines. It has lockers, two bathrooms with showers, a meal prep area, and "chill areas". The owners are passionate and competitive in body building, so the equipment they carry is also evolving. There's a coffee shop next door, tables and benches out front, and couches inside if you're waiting on your workout partner, need to load up on energy before a workout, or want to rest after a workout and talk to others. The members here range from beginners who just want to learn to be and look healthier, to competitive bodybuilders; everyone is different and everyone here is friendly.

Fantastic experience: Great gym good people.

Fantastic experience: The owners of this gym are two of the most laid back, understanding people I know. I was working out at Steelmill one afternoon and the gym had great vibes, the owner came up to me after my workout and asked how my workout went and we talked it up about fitness/bodybuilding. Both of them are very knowledgable and went out of their way to be polite and make me feel welcome. I definitely signed up for a membership the day I came in, but I would pay for day passes every day if I had to. Honestly haven't heard anyone say anything bad about this place yet, the gym is clean and well-organized and the owners are always open to conversation with clients and really add a welcoming feeling to the gym. Needless to say this was an unbelievable experience and I am so pleased with the treatment and professionalism displayed from this establishment. If you're in Houston, you HAVE to check out Steelmill. (Oh, and I would put 100 stars if I could, but Google only lets me put 5)

Negative experience: Responding to such accusations with “thanks for giving such a factual review” in a sarcastic manner is the most distasteful response I’ve seen. It shows that you let your personal life affect your business even if it is only that review. Also it’s a gym, not hard to get good reviews, sure go there but you’d be supporting the type of men that are ruining your country and the world

Positive experience: Pros: No long term contracts. Plenty of free weights. Not very busy, even at peak hours. Friendly staff. Private showers. Good music playing most of the time. Cons: Hardly any cardio equipment, and the equipment they do have is not in good condition.

Positive experience: Great for those who just want to lift and use weights. Friendly staff, give 4.5 stars only because the house music was so loud I couldn't use my own headphones.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym and even better people

Fantastic experience: Perfect gym. No pretension. Welcoming staff who can are eager to accommodate. Isolated equipment not found at any other gym in a large radius!

Fantastic experience: Steelmill Gym is an awesome iron banging gym. Has all the lifting equipment a bro needs to get shredded. Also has one seat for a barber to get you a nice clean cut after your workouts. They don't deal with contracts and offer day and monthly passes. Would recommend if you're in the Houston area to work out at.

Fantastic experience: clean, well maintained equipment, great music, good coffee right next door, affordable... this gym is awesome.

Fantastic experience: I'm just starting out and this place is phenomenal with an expert, helpful staff and equipment. Member for life.

Fantastic experience: Great people, great place. 10/10
