Ironstone Performance

Amazing! Ive made phenomenal progress way beyond what I had ever thought possible. Highly recommend!!

I originally came to Franklin as a power lifter in college that had consistent back injuries that I had not ever addressed properly. Franklin is a diligent and knowledgeable coach, and was able to help me address my back injuries which allowed me to compete again in powerlifting. Furthermore training with Franklin, he prepared me to start the physical testing and academy to become a firefighter, a dream I always feared I would not accomplish due to my poor spinal health. The coaching plans he puts together are tailored to you, your skills and what you want to accomplish! Working with Franklin makes me better at my job as a firefighter, and he has also gotten me to start in strongman competitions which has been a blast! As a coach, Franklin strives to always be expanding his knowledge and continuing to improve himself and his facility. I truly do not think you can find a better gym in Seattle, whether you are just starting out or have serious strength and fitness experience. Ironstone is truly welcoming for all skill and ability levels, and has fostered an incredible community that I am grateful to be apart of. If you wanna get serious about strength, come see Franklin!

I started working with Franklin a little over a year ago after struggling with lower back pain for nearly four years. At first, I was hesitant - I wasnt sure strength training was the answer. Franklin took the time to really listen to my concerns and my goals, and created a plan that felt safe and approachable.Since then, the results have been life-changing. My back pain is now almost nonexistent, and I feel stronger and healthier than I have in most of my adult life. Franklins supportive, thoughtful approach has given me confidence in the gym and in my daily life. I cant recommend him enough to anyone looking to get stronger safely and sustainably.
