I joined B3 about a month ago. The focus is obviously on health and self-improvement, but the family atmosphere created by Ian, Abby and their team has been the biggest magnet for me. They know everyone’s name and always greet each member personally and positively. Their knowledge in stretching, lifting and conditioning creates a safe environment while continually pushing you to be better than the previous day. They also organize events off campus to hang out with other members in a social environment all while getting some exercise too. If you’re looking for a gym that will welcome you, nurture you, encourage you and push you to your limits…B3 Strength and Performance is the place you need to be!

Ian and Abbi are awesome trainers and the community at B3 is so supportive and motivating! The workouts are awesome and focus on everything from endurance to strength building, and mobility and balance as well. I cannot recommend B3 enough!

The best gym in the upstate! I’ve been going to B3 Strength & Performance for about 5 months now. I had never had a consistent workout routine much less lifted weights before joining B3. The gym truly has a welcoming and encouraging atmosphere for a wide range of ages and fitness levels. All of the trainers are very knowledgeable and will help you properly perform the movements throughout the class. So glad I joined B3!!

I’ve been at this gym for about 3 weeks now, and I’m loving it. All the coaches are respectful and give helpful feedback, especially when it comes to form. I have a bad back and haven’t had any pain when lifting here, despite the fact that it’s always been an issue in the past. I’d definitely recommend this gym to anyone who’s interested :)

It’s all about you!! Everyone has different goals. We are not on the same fitness level. What I love about this gym is how individualized it is. It’s not a competition! Not overly competitive. There is a real family vibe and so much support. If it’s great health, strength, energy and a new sense of well-being you are looking for, this is it!!!

Where do I start? What are your specific goals as far as health and body goes? DOESNT MATTER! B3 and its trainers are well trained and fully equipped to help you reach your goals and surpass them to the moon! I started B3 when I was just a scronny freshman with not a lot of character. B3 with its amazing, constant, friendly, and energetic community shaped me and pushed me to be the man I am today! Would 110% recommend this gym and I can garuntee you will never look back after joining.

Where do I start? Every aspect of this gym is enjoyable even down to the waiver in the beginning. The trainers and on-site PTs are so passionate and enthusiastic about what they do and with their primary focus being on safety, you'll learn how to progress safely no matter what your fitness journey may be. I definitely recommend dropping in for some group classes and taking their free first Saturday class so that you can see what you've been missing out on on!

I came to B3 after tearing my ACL. I worked with Peter, Ian, and Kiapo on rehabbing my knee and overall getting stronger. Training with Peter has really helped me build the strength and confidence I needed to return to sports. I have built a relationship with the team and they really do care about helping me get strong. I highly recommend these guys

I had wanted to start weight training but didn’t want the extreme workout that Cross Fit seemed to offer. I hadn’t worked out in a gym in years and wasn’t sure where to start. A friend of mine recommended her gym, B3 Strength and Performance so I tried it. B3 workouts offer comprehensive strength training and fitness. Ian, Abbi and Peter focus on teaching proper form, teaching what each exercise is meant to do, safeguarding you from injury while pushing you to your limits. Each workout is well designed and done in 50 minutes. Classes are limited to 10, allowing for camaraderie without battling for equipment, space, or support of you need it. Within a few weeks I saw improvement in how my clothes fit, my posture, and my overall strength. I feel much healthier and will only get stronger. My experience has been so positive and motivating. I highly recommend B3!

I’ve been training with Abbi for a couple of months and it has been the best experience! I was intimidated walking into the gym with all the heavy weights/equipment but she put me at ease. She definitely pushes me, which is why I’m there! But she also does it safely. I definitely feel stronger and have way more energy. She knows what she’s doing and gives helpful feedback! I trust her with my goals!

I started Personal Training with Abbi a little over 3 months ago, after being on a workout sabbatical for 3.5 years! I was feeling tired, sluggish, and unhappy with my body. Abbi was very supportive and encouraging from the start. She designed a personalized workout plan for me, taking into account my goals, preferences, and limitations (I had shoulder/neck issues). She worked with me, and my limitations and I can honestly say many of those limitations have disappeared through strength training! Abbi is not only a great trainer, but also a great motivator. She always pushes me to do my best, but never makes me feel bad if I can’t. She celebrates every achievement with me, no matter how small. She is always positive, cheerful, and fun to be around. Thanks to Abbi, I have seen amazing results in my fitness and health. I have gained muscle mass, and improved my cardiovascular endurance. I feel more energetic, confident, and happy. Abbi is one of the best personal trainers I have ever had. I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to get back in shape after having kids. She is worth every penny! Thank you Abbi!

Great Gym. There are people of all fitness levels that make you feel welcome. Instructors are knowledgeable and patient. Highly recommend.

I love going to B3! Everyone there is so kind, funny, and welcoming. I have been going for almost one whole year now and have nothing but good things to say. My body has changed a lot and I’ve never been a part of a workout class that pushes me so hard in a way that I genuinely enjoy. Ian, Abbi, and Peter are a dream team of trainers!!

I just started at B3 and really enjoy it! The workouts are challenging but not to where you feel so sore and miserable for days afterwards. The workouts are also programmed in a way where you can increase your strength overtime versus being random / sporadic. The members are very friendly — very easy to fit right in! The training is great — they trainers are very involved in correcting form and teaching various ways/different cues to help people. Overall I recommend this for people who are wanting a structured way to improve strength with a good community.

B3 training with Peter has been so fun and motivating. If you want a place that feels like family and a workout you actually look forward to, this is the place to be. Very knowledgeable trainers that helped me keep going while overcoming a shoulder injury. Win win!

I have been working with Abbi Becker at B3 & Performance for a year now. I am 69 years old and started working with a trainer when I was 35 in CT. I have had many trainers to say the least. Weight training and wellness are very important to me. I had a knee replacement 18 months ago which did not go all that great. When I was introduced to Abbi, she took the time to understand what my challenges were and then designed a program that would give me the best chance of improving my range of motion, allieving my pain, and helping me begin a weight training program that had been put on hold for a very long time. Abbi is knowledgeable, professional, patient, and at the same time pushes me to be the best I can! Abbi has given me my life back and there is not a day that goes by that I don’t thank God for bringing her into my life!!!

B3 is an incredible gym! I am a 23 year old female who just moved to the upstate after graduating college. I was looking for community and a place where I could workout and stay healthy while balancing work and grad school. I found all of those things and more at B3! The staff at B3 takes time to meet you where you are on your fitness journey. They come alongside you during workouts and help train/correct form to ensure that you are strengthening your body safely and efficiently. And from the very beginning, the staff and fellow gym members have made me feel welcome and confident in myself and my ability. Before joining B3, I participated in some weight training as a collegiate athlete, but after I graduated I became unmotivated and inconsistent. After joining B3, I can’t wait to get up and get better with each workout, knowing that I will be challenged, held accountable, and supported as I work toward my goals!!

B3 is the best gym ever! There is so much individual attention on proper form! I love the group setting while lifting! The trainers are all incredibly positive and motivating! I am so glad I found them!!!

The trainers, Ian and Abby, are great! They work with you at your pace and skill level to help you improve. They push you to do well and improve while recognizing how individuals respond to various styles. I highly recommend B3 Fitness!

Although I only briefly attended B3, I can honestly say that it was a great experience. Ian and Abbi are awesome and the classes were challenging and engaging. If you’re looking for instructor-led group fitness with an emphasis on proper lifting form and a great atmosphere B3 is your place!

I started working out at B3 with Abbi in January. I love the atmosphere and the friendly staff. Everyone at B3 is so encouraging. I have definitely noticed a difference with more energy and strength since Abbi has been my personal trainer. My fitness journey is just beginning with B3 in my 60s!!

I know Ian, and several of the people who train at B3 under his coaching. You can tell they all really expect and celebrate each other and their individual achievements. I've also attended an event there, and the energy was electric. I highly recommend B3 Strength & Performance for anyone looking for a motivating and encouraging physical training experience.

My husband and I were among the first members of B3. And now our teenage/college age children attend as well. We all love it as the work outs truly challenge each of us but can be suited to our individual needs, goals as well as physical shortcomings. Morning and afternoon classes allow us to make it work for our work & school schedules too. Ian and Abbi are amazing trainers with so much passion & love for their members. I count myself lucky. Here's to their ongoing success and my fitness journey!!!!
