I have only used this gym for a few months, I was always too nervous to go, but getting a PT really helped me conquer my nerves. Abi has been a huge confidence booster for me, and I couldn't have done it without her. The gym is clean, lively, and filled with a fantastic range of weight lifting equipment. You can add your own music to the queue, but I love the music played here always! This gym has built its own community, and it really shows, with its friendly staff and kind gym goers. Update - I am happy to say that I am still smashing out the gym! Loving the consistency! Barbell also arrange social events which I have yet attended, but very excited for them!

Sexiest gym to ever exist with unbelievable range and quantity of equipment! A powerlifter's wet dream! Amazing staff who go above and beyond for their members, and a wonderful community of like-minded lifters.

I joined Black Country Barbell just over 12 weeks ago, I’ve tried various gyms in the past and this is by far the best one I’ve joined! I’ve had a 12 week coaching package with Iain and it’s been brilliant, really enjoyed the coaching sessions and found his advice really helpful. I’m starting to see progress through the weights increasing and feeling better about myself. Will definitely be carrying on with the online programming and PT sessions!

Have always found gyms really intimidating and joined BCB with my boyfriend about 5 months ago. But recently I took the plunge and signed up for coaching with them and SO glad I did. Super friendly and knowledgeable staff, am being challenged but educated too. Feeling good in mind and body, and no intimidation anywhere - feel right at home! Would highly recommend 💪🏻

The gym itself is brilliantly stocked with equipment to address all your training needs, but where it stands apart is the friendliness and expertise of the staff. They are so approachable and knowledgeable and always willing to assist. Gyms can be quite a daunting location, but BCB has a really open and welcoming ambience that is led by the staff.

I have been a member at this gym for just over 3 months now, I joined on the silver coaching package and I have absolutely loved my journey and continue to build every session! I’d thought about doing this for such a long time, the commitment and cost always got in the way but I am so glad I finally took the plunge and did it! I have grown in body confidence so much more than I expected, I worked out regularly before this to but there’s something about lifting and that lifting heavy that I just can’t explain, it’s bloody marvellous! So if your on the fence or like me keep thinking about it, my advice is just do it, you will not regret it! My coach is amazing as our all the staff here at Black Country Barbell. The atmosphere is amazing to and all the members are friendly. The equipment is all of high standard and plenty of it to go round even at busy times. I never thought I’d be writing this now, I really can’t recommend it enough!

Best. Gym. By. Far I’ve wanted to try out BCB for such a long time but was way too nervous, so when someone very close to me asked me to go try it out with them I jumped at the chance and quickly decided to move gyms (after the first day of trying it out to be exact.) I’ve been a member at a few gyms over the years but not had an experience like I have here. I’ve been made to feel very welcome from the first day I nervously walked in. It’s a real community feeling and a member of staff is always on hand to answer any questions. I’ve been contacted a few times to check in with me, see how I’m getting on, if I need any help etc… it’s the finer details that make this place a great place to train xx

Absolutely brilliant gym! Staff are fab, really friendly. Loads of equipment and really clean. Such a great community feel to the members, I was really nervous first time I went as it was the first time I'd been in a gym for several year since before my little one was born, once I'd been a couple of times I was relaxed and now I don't feel nervous at all. They provide you with lots of advice and there is always someone there to ask if you don't know how to use something or you just want a bit of advice.

A truly fantastic gym. High quality equipment, clean facilities and brilliantly friendly staff. This gym also boasts a very friendly community that has made me feel very accepted and comfortable. All in all a great place to train and be!

Absolutely unbelievable gym. Not only is it great equipment, but it also has a first class environment too. All the members are friendly and the staff can’t do enough for you. Definitely the best place to train in the Midlands!

Great gym. Really good equipment and really friendly and supportive environment. The coaches are brilliant and there’s always someone around to help if you need it.

Absolutely the greatest gym I’ve ever been too. After having a total hip replacement, I needed a gym where I felt comfortable and safe. I have Abby as my coach, who tailors my goals precisely with the ultimate safety and care. It’s a fabulous gym, with all the facilities you need to train amongst friendly members and staff. My Daughter is now a member and my Son is signing up too. Best Gym ever. Thankyou so much lucky to have you so close. x

For someone like me who’s tried other gyms and failed to stay motivated, Black Country Barbell gym has made all the difference. Friendly staff (they will greet you by name from Day One) and members, always someone available to help, no egos, and superbly fun and motivating atmosphere. I’ve signed up for a coaching membership so I could have a proper structure. Highly recommended, as I’ve been there for over a year and love what those lovely people are doing for my fitness & mental health.

BCB gym is awesome. They have cultivated a great atmosphere and people are friendly, and the staff are so approachable and welcoming. I started with a three month coaching program with Abi and I couldn't thank her enough for everything she taught me. It's the best gym I've been a member of!

I can’t recommend Black Country Barbell high enough…it really is a special place. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the equipment is second to none. I joined with zero gym experience and have found a training package with coaching to be perfect for me. Sean, my coach, goes above and beyond to guide me. 14 weeks in and building a stronger me which is so important, especially as we get older. Thank you BCB. ❤️

I’ve been training here for two years now and came as a complete novice. I started having coaching sessions and have slowly moved to training with an app which my coach uploads my programme onto. The support and friendliness of everyone at the gym makes training more enjoyable. The staff will help out with any training questions or spotting so you can achieve new PBs!! My only wish is that I’d started training sooner rather than wait until I was 50!!

The 12 week program was just what I needed to regain my confidence & motivation to get back into the gym. Everyone is so friendly & staff are always willing to help. The gym is much better equipped than other gyms around and also does not have the same struggles of using equipment at peak times. I have been coached by Iain who is always happy to answer my many questions using his vast knowledge and is extremely patient. He accommodates any past challenges or injuries, explaining alternative strategies and the science behind it all. I feel I have learned a lot and would recommend trying this gym to anyone

I started my journey with BCB in August this year, the atmosphere in this gym is amazing, so different to other gyms. I love how everyone is so friendly, talkative and willing to help if needed. I need to give credit to my Coach Sean, he has been my gym rock, he is really knowledgeable, he listens when I want to work on a specific area and generally an all round lovely guy to work out with and I genuinely wouldn’t be where I am today without his support. 💪 you guys are amazing!! Sam Swinscoe

Being fairly new the the area and looking for a new gym, I came across Black Country Barbell. BCB is a great, fully equipped gym with frendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Sean has been a brilliant PT and really given me confidence and a training schedule that works for me. Over the last few months of having Sean as a PT I have seen a large increase in all my lifts. Would recommend to all.

Absolutely incredible gym! Decided to get in touch a few weeks ago to see what they had to offer. The Men’s Health article sang its praises & the Gymshark comment that it is ‘the 3rd best gym in the world’ seemed a bold claim, but trust me, this place is amazing. Not only is there an extensive and varied array of equipment, but the super friendly staff and atmosphere make training here a pleasure, not a chore. There are no daft questions, just support & guidance, and if you want to take things to the next level then there are superb coaching options to help with this. Great people, banging tunes, awesome shakes and just all round fab! Best gym I’ve ever been to for sure and can’t wait to keep making progress.

Fantastic gym. Friendly, helpful staff, hugely accomadating to health issues. Sean is an Excellent PT and Manager Lewis wants best for all his members! Fantastic gym, highly recommend 🙋‍♀️🏋‍♀️

Before coming here, i went to a commercial gym for about two months, decided to leave there and come to Black Country Barbell haven’t looked back ever since, fantastic place, fantastic people and the black and red aesthetic just puts the cherry on top. Love the place, love the people. 100% recommend.

Love this gym!! This is my favourite gym by far. The staff are really welcoming and friendly and always on hand to help. I feel comfortable here, no feelings of intimidation which you can get at others gyms; there is a sense of community spirit. Great range of equipment. I get one to one coaching for olympic weightlifting by Connor, I can highly recommend him. Great coach, great gym!!:)

Black Country Barbell Gym is a fantastic gym. The Staff are exceptional, the overall vibe is great and I have had nothing but good experiences. It has been the best choice I have made training at BCB. The staff are very helpful and are always there to answer your questions. I am really looking forward to continuing my journey here at Black Country Barbell. Thank you Team BCB

From the second I made contact u was greeted with such a warm and professional welcome, the owner (Lewis) is running such a great gym, with a good selection of weights and machines, with the state of the art body scanner machine to the PT trainers. The gym is always sending comms out advising me on different ways to keep my mind focused and dietary requirements. I cannot recommend this gym enough. Such an excellent service and perfect for all levels

What an amazing place. Great atmosphere, exceptional coaches who deliver evidenced based guidance, support and advice, a friendly team, the best equipment and all wrapped up with a true sense of community (and a few great tunes).

After never stepping foot inside a gym I decided to start my fitness journey with BCB and it was one of the best things I have ever done. All the staff and coaches are so friendly and really make you feel welcome. I joined on the coaching package with Connor Oates to help me learn how to train correctly and I have learned so much. He is friendly, encouraging and has a wealth of knowledge which made me trust him completely and also want to get it right. My confidence is growing each week and training here is now part of my life. I would recommend this gym to anyone wanting to start their journey, you really get that family feeling training here. 👌

Awesome gym, great set up, all the equipment you could ever need. Staff are awesome especially if you’re interested in PT, they’re super knowledgable, constructive, patient and encouraging. Couldn’t find a better place!

Absolutely amazing. Probably the best in the UK for Customer service and PT.

One of the best strength and conditioning gyms in the UK, top bunch of people in there, BCB have done a great job at building a great community in their gym. 💪

A real community gym has been built with Black Country barbell with both staff and other gym users making you feel welcome. The look and layout of the gym amazing with lots of equipment to use for all styles of training. I live pretty far away but often make trips to have a session at BCB as I enjoy the place so much.

We have worked with BCB for many years and every time we step foot in their gym it has a brilliant atmosphere. Everyone including staff and other members are super friendly and welcoming. If you want more than just a gym and a great community of people this is the gym for you.

Becoming a member of Black Country Barbell has changed my life! I joined because I was feeling miserable about myself and my body, had many various health issues and never took any time for myself. I was a complete novice and was anxious about joining, but it's such a welcoming gym, with really helpful and friendly staff and fantastic equipment. I now look forward to going to the gym and if I'm "too busy", I will work out a better time to go rather than give up. I am on a bronze package so have a PT session once a week. I'm still struggling with past injuries, but Abi has been amazing, changing my workouts to suit me so I don't injure myself further. She's really listened to everything and I love my workouts. She pushes me, but only because she knows I am capable of it, which is great for someone like me, who has easily given up when things get too much. She is really supportive and encouraging and I am learning so much from her. I also love getting emails from Lewis and the team with info on nutrition, health and fitness, as well as just checking everything is OK. I feel happier and stronger, both physically and mentally. It is the best thing I have ever done for myself.

Made to feel very welcome at Black Country Barbell, fantastic selection of equipment for all disciplines. The team are on hand to provide support and guidance whenever required. Been working with Connor for the past 6 months. I'm a stronger individual that i was when i joined !

What a fantastic gym, with the most helpful, welcoming and knowledgeable staff and one of the nicest owners I've met. The coaching (from the amazing Jake @crusader.strength) is super fun and works! It has to be the best equipped gym I've ever had the privilege to experience. Needs more then five stars :)

Very helpful and friendly staff. Excellently equipped gym, all anyone could ask for. Feels very professional, like you are a member of something special. Cannot recommend enough.

I’m just about to complete my first 12 week programme with Black Country Barbell and my coach Connor. Not only am I 8.6kg down, 10cm off my waist 😮 and feeling great, I’m stronger, more confident and the best part, I love going to the gym now. Connor is amazing and has really taken the time to show me good techniques, safe exercise programming and we talk nutrition. He’s truly interested in how I’m feeling and getting on. I’m looking forward to the next few months and more progress. I’ve already had to buy smaller trousers for work 🥳 I highly recommend joining if you’re on the fence, and if you’re not, check it out! Thanks Team!

Amazing gym...staff very friendly,great choice in music( good to hear rock music in a gym again) and the equipment is brilliant. Would gladly give ten stars

Best gym I've ever been to. - top tier equipment - really friendly staff - great community - phenomenal training packages - ability to choose what music everyone has to listen to 😉 - they actually care about you, your physical health, your mental health, and your progress Everyone at Black Country Barbell does an amazing job and they're always open to talk. Lewis has done a cracking job with the place. I can't see myself ever going to another gym.

Absolutely fantastic place to train. Over the years I've trained at several different Gyms but this has to be my favourite. The equipment is top of the range and you very rarely need to wait for a squat rack which is my biggest bug bear at other gyms. It is a very clean and welcoming atmosphere, and the the staff are great and always willing to help. All the staff are very approachable and have great knowledge of what they do which makes it stand out from the rest. I would definitely recommend this gym to anyone looking for something other than a commercialised gym.

Black Country Barbell is a clean and comfortable gym. All the team members and friendly and approachable. All the equipment is top notch and clean and there are cleaning products available at all times. There's are toilets and showers available for use. There is a massive selection of energy boosting drinks, snacks and protein shakes available. I would highly recommend using this gym!

Excellent gym with a real community and lovely staff who make you feel very welcome. - Very well equipped, with the right equipment too. - Fantastic structured coaching program (big shout out Sean, great guy and a great coach) - Personal touch with emails/messages to check in and see how you're doing - Fit3D Scanner which allows you to objectively measure your progress. If you're considering a gym or a PT, this should be your top choice. Highly recommended.

Love this gym sooo much. I'd come here all the time if I didn't live so far away, the team and members are always friendly. Really good atmosphere and family vibes.

I've been a member of BCB for just over a year, training S&C and Olympic weightlifting with Connor, and it's been fabulous. The equipment is great, staff are really knowledgeable and members are friendly and helpful, meaning the gym has an amazing atmosphere. This place is for you if you want to train with friends or on your own with your headphones in powering through your sets. Totally recommended.

Great gym to work out, good vibes and second to none staff. I have been training here for nearly 12 months, nothing but support from the staff and members. There is a wide range of equipment available to everyone, the equipment and facilities well maintained and cleaned regularly. I feel as though the gym is my second home most of the time.
