Welcome to Iron Temple — a community of men united by a higher purpose: building strong temples for the Holy Spirit and growing closer to God while transforming our bodies and lives. Inspired by Proverbs 27:17, "Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another" (ESV), Iron Temple is more than a fitness program—it’s a brotherhood.

Here, we don’t just focus on physical gains; we aim to strengthen your body and spirit. By combining the science of hypertrophy with biblical principles, we help you sculpt your physique while fostering a deeper relationship with Jesus. Together, we commit to honoring our bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) and pursuing lives of discipline, faith, and purpose.

Our program is designed with efficiency and results in mind. With just 4 days of training a week—each session lasting 45 minutes to an hour—you’ll maximize your efforts and minimize wasted time. Using tempo control, single-joint movements, and proven intensity techniques, we target specific muscle tissues to promote growth and strength without overtraining.

At Iron Temple, we understand life’s demands. Whether you’re balancing work, family, or overcoming old habits, we provide a path to train smarter, not harder. Our methods focus on meaningful progress without constant soreness or burnout, allowing you to manage responsibilities while staying consistent with your goals.

Imagine becoming the strongest version of yourself—physically, mentally, and spiritually. Iron Temple is for men who are ready to put in the work, not just in the gym but also in their walk with Christ. Together, we’ll sharpen each other, grow in faith, and build lives that reflect God’s glory.

Not a believer? You’re still welcome here. Iron Temple is a community for anyone seeking to better themselves—physically, mentally, and emotionally—for their own growth and for the benefit of those around them. Whether you’re exploring your faith or simply looking to transform your life, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

It’s time to leave excuses behind and embrace the challenge. Join Iron Temple and start building your temple today.

"I was 240 lbs with hardly any muscle. Since starting the program, I’ve dropped to 215 lbs and have started to lean up. What surprised me the most was how fast I saw results—after just 2 weeks. I’m on calls 30+ times a day with a demanding job but managed to fit the 45min - 1 hour workouts in.""

""I work 24 hour shifts, things still fit in very well and it was very flexible. I was able to physically see weight loss in my face, core, as well as getting definition back in my arms. Kept me in check and got me back on track, once you get started, you realize you are investing in yourself.""
