Set 02The warehouse

No mirrors. No machines. No ego.

Ironclad is a real warehouse with real equipment: barbells, racks, sleds and a turf track. Nothing in here is built to look good in a selfie. It's built to make you strong, whether this is your first week under a bar or you're prepping for a meet.

Opened in 2019 by a former rugby league strength coach
