This place is perfect. 24/7 access with your own key FOB, dry sauna, showers, lockers, and all the equipment your heart desires. Cheaper than you would think to join and never regretted a moment of being there. I never got a training session from Mike, but seen him working with a ton of happy clientele over the past few weeks. If you’re looking for a great gym, would 100% recommend checking this place out 🤙🤘

If I could give this gym a negative stars review, I would. Their customer service is terrible.I have been getting mail for Andy Reed for over a year. I have marked it “return to sender”, called this location multiple times, left multiple messages for Greg(?) to return my call with no response from anyone.None of these actions have worked.I am still getting these letters.I stopped by today (3/13/21) to try to resolve the matter. After asking to speak with the person responsible for billing, a man said that was him. After explaining my situation, I was immediately met with aggression by the guy on duty. He told me I needed to speak to the owner. When I told him I already tried that, he responded “I don’t know what to tell you.”As loathe as I am to say this, I can’t recommend supporting this local business. A corporate business (like Gold’s Gym or the YMCA) would have resolved the issue immediately.****Once again, I have called your business with no one answering the phone.I have reached out many different times, through several different ways, and this issue is still not resolved!Its very simple, stop sending me mail for someone that I dont know.Its really that simple.

Been going here a few years now. It’s a good facility and it’s a local business here in candler. Very convenient to my apartment. Great training staff here. The equipment is a bit dated but it is maintained. I also feel that the prices are reasonable.

I love this place. They have everything you need and the best part is that they are open 24hr. Workers there are very polite and just chill! I love the rugged look of it all. Makes you feel like you’re in one of those body builder gyms 👏🏼👏🏼 I’m definitely recommending this place to everyone!!

For me this gym works perfectly. Its low-key and not flashy like some of the other gyms but thats perfect! I like the fact that its locally-owned by a small business owner and not some corporate behemoth. The gym has plenty of weights and plenty of machines and areas to do stretches and cardio and such. The staff and patrons are friendly. The 24/7 option is great so you can come anytime. I definitely recommend this gym!

WNC Barbell is a wonderful place to workout. With plenty of equipment and very spacious facility. Especially like the Hammer Strength machines and free weights. They always keep the place clean and it is a 24 hour facility which gives plenty of flexibility. I highly recommend this facility for all your workout needs

Great place to work out!! Despite being a large gym it has a small town like atmosphere. Everyone is so friendly its like one big family. They offer so many different classes and personal training there as well.

I enjoy this gym, the staff is very professional and nice. If I ever have a question, I always feel comfortable asking.Inside is always clean, bathrooms, clean towels. The sanitizer is always full and plenty of.The equipment is top notch.The general environment is nice.I would recommend WNC Barbell to anyone .

Weights, bars, and machines well maintained. Stays clean. Large open area so even on busy days it doesnt seem too crowded. Multiple bench and squat racks so rarely a wait for your lifts. 24 hour access is a great plus.

I feel very comfortable at Barbells gym. They allow me to watch FOX news while I am on the treadmill. Everyone is friendly, and helpful. Some of my friends also use Barbells so that is great. I feel very safe entering and leaving---- that is also important to me

One of the best games I’ve ever been to!! The owner is super nice and so is all the equipment. It reminds me of the old gym where people actually go to work out:) I would recommend this gym to anybody!!

Fantastic gym with a real and authentic feel to it for people that want to work hard. You feel like youre in an 80s bodybuilding magazine. More than adequate equipment for your workouts and a clean environment makes this a great gym that Id recommend to anyone with a passion for lifting.

I started working out at WNC Barbell 15 years ago and it has always been like a home away from home. 24hr access, plenty of equipment options, convenient location, and a clean facility. Best gym in town, would definitely recommend!

WNC Barbell is a great gym! My wife and I have been members for around five years and have really enjoyed the small-town feel over the big box gyms. The facilities are kept clean and the 24-hour access is very convenient! If youre looking for a gym for weights, cardio, or fitness classes, Barbell is the place to go!

I’ve been a member of this gym for several years and I like that it’s a bodybuilding style gym. No frilly classes, just weights, machines and people working hard.They have personal trainers and also a studio for marshal arts in the same building (priced separately).I’ve always been treated well by the owner and the staff is really nice too. It’s open 24/7 and I always feel safe working out even late in the evenings.I miss being able to come work out here now that it’s been closed during covid-19.

WNC Barbell is a great gym! It is clean, comfortable, and homey. The employees are kind and ready to assist. The people who go to the WNC Barbell are also super friendly and gives off a sense of being a part of the community. Overall, it is a great gym.

WNC Barbell is a great local gym with something for most folks. It has a large free weight area, machines for those with limited mobility or those inclined to a safer method for weight bearing exercise and treadmills for indoor walking and running. There’s also spin machines and limited programmable exercise bikes. There’s a padded floor exercise area and an adjacent martial arts school as well as a classroom for senior exercise classes or other activities.You can even access the equipment 24 - 7 for those working odd hour shifts or other schedule restrictions.A qualified personal trainer and licensed exercise physiologist is available.It accepts Silver Sneakers which is a plus for us!

WNC Barbell is a great gym! Very simplistic - but has all the things you need to get a good work out in. You can access the gym 24/7 which was really nice. The staff are super nice and easy going too.

We go to the gym 4-5 times a week. We’ve been members for many years. The environment is extremely comfortable and professional. Great staff. Clean environment. Exercise equipment is updated and fits all of our needs.

Awesome gym! Has all the equipment you need whether youre there to run on the treadmills, ride on the bikes, modern cable machines for the people that like to excercise in a civilized manner or the good Ole cold Steel for the ones who prefer to old fashion method. The staff is very friendly, always see someone cleaning the machines and the membership is fairly priced.

WNC Barbell is a contemporary gym with Old School roots. I have been a member for over a decade and it is the best bargain for your workout dollar. I appreciate having 24/7 access to the gym which is the flexibility I need for my work schedule.

Have been a member of WNC Barbell, great 24 hour gym. It works great for anytime work outs. Plenty of equipment, very little time if any spent on waiting on equipment, more time working out less time waiting.

24 hour access is awesome. Good selection of machines and free weights. Updated decor. Martial Arts and Arrobics available. Plenty of parking and good members.

WNC is a very clean and well thought out gym. It has provided my Son and I a great venue to focus on our training.I highly recommend WNC BarbellGraham and Sam

WNC Barbell is such a great gym and I can’t wait until they reopen!! They have all the best equipment and it’s always clean. They have convenient hours for everyone and the staff is friendly and helpful.

The staff at WNC Barbell is friendly and always willing to help. I enjoy having the choice to use weighted machines or free weights, and I’m not self conscious like I am at larger more packed gyms. It’s a friendly environment to be apart of.

Been coming to WNC Barbell off and on for almost 20 years! Love this placeThe staff is very friendly And professional. To me the best features here are the equipment because it is superior to other gyms in my eyes plus the 24 hour access!!

Ive been a member at WNC Barbell for over 12 years. Ive always enjoyed working out there and always having access 24 hours a day makes working out easier. Greg and his staff work hard to keep the gym and equipment up to date. Thanks WNC Barbell

My husband has numerous diseases which impact his balance, strength and stamina. I go to relieve stress and maintain/improve myphysical and mental health. Before COVID-19, I attended Silver Sneaker classes at the gym and hope to again. Mike and other staff welcome us when we arrive. Greg, owner, always acknowledges both us with a “ Hi”, smile and an often gentle teasing comment. The gym and bathrooms have always been clean!! Now the equipment is sanitized often by staff. In addition , all members are provided spray bottles with sanitizing liquid and cloths to use before and after using each piece of equipment. My husband and I highly recommend WNC Barbell on Sardis Rd for everyone including the serious athletes.

AWESOME GYM , I have been going to barbell for about a year now and love that is a smaller gym I am able to get in and out. I love how well they have adjusted to covid and how everybody respects the rules put in place to keep everybody safe. GREAT GYM!!!!!

So get this I had this girlfriend right I bought her a membership but I stole her from Colorado I was like she might leave to the owner of the gym and he put on the agreement if she leaves then will void out her side of the contract which I was paying for so she left I waited about a month just to see if she would come back She never came back So he voided out that part of the contract. Think about how crazy amazing beautiful and awesome that is.

I have worked out at WNC for years. Love this place. Never crowded. Other patrons are awesome and friendly. The staff is very helpful. The equipment is up to date and always clean. If your ever in the Enka/Candler area and need a gym. This is a great place to get your swole on.

24 hour access gym with a plethora of equipment. Definitely focused more towards weight lifting. Very affordable and a great option compared to other places with limited hours.

Greg and the staff are very helpful with the proper use of the equipment and any questions you may have regarding nutrition. The facility and equipment is extremely clean. There is always chemicals and towels for patronts to use, and available. The atmosphere is always extremely friendly. I would recommend wnc barbell to anyone looking for a gym facility, or wanting a change. This is also a 24/7 facility, which I love.

One of my favorite places to lift heavy. Friendly staff, great community, and an awesome old school ambiance. I love this place.

I give this place five stars for the mix of old school and modern. If wanna hit the iron this is the place to be! Management is great!

A great clean space for those who love to workout! Also great for beginners. SUPER CLEAN!!

Clean professional environment with multiples of all the equipment you need. Best gym in wnc

WNC Barbell is really a great gym , especially if you like the old school equipment and vibes . Great staff , clean facility and I have really enjoyed lifting here and making new friends . Everyone should definitely check WNC Barbell out , you will be glad you did .

Love WNC Barbell! Tons of equipment, tons of variety. Never have to wait for a machine.

Excellent gym!! Staff is super friendly and very helpful. All of the equipment you would need and brand new!!

WNC Barbell is a great gym. They offer a 24 hour access option which was great for a busy schedule. They have top knotch equipment for powerlifting and bodybuilding, and its a great environment to work out.

Great Place to workout even for a Beginner everybody is Respectful and nobody stares at you working out like they do at some other Gyms. Very Clean and Excellent Equipment, Love working out here.

Very clean facility has at least three or four of each equipment that you need would highly recommend this gym

WNC barbell is a great place to get in shape . Plenty of free weights and dumbells. Also several different machines to pick from as well as cardio machines. Most of all its 24/7 with a great staff to assist you.

Very high quality environment for people that enjoy exercise. Friendly and helpful staff and a great place to get a workout in.

Friendly service, great equipment, no wait, 24/7...and they have a fabulous medical massage therapist.

WNC Barbell is a great facility for those who are looking to really concentrate and focus on their lifts without distraction. This is what youd call an old school facility with no with frills and advertising.The gym consists of a large number of weighted cable machines and a large number of free weights. All of which, are well maintained. Surprising to see, especially with a cable row machine that sits on the floor. You feel like you stepped back in time. There are a good handful of treadmills, bike machines and ellipticals.I know the facility offers taekwondo and a silver sneakers program, as well as massage therapy (recommended).I chose this facility because it is not a flashy franchise with all the added extras you dont need in a membership. It has all I need and it is also open 24 hours. Weights and cardio.

Great gym with a great staff and all the equipment to help anyone reach their fitness goals!!

I love going to this gym. Never crowded and plenty of equipment.

Nice place. Plenty of equipment. Friendly staff. Would recommend.

Best selection of powerlifting equipment in AVL. Everything is well maintained. Casual atmosphere.

Friendliest small gym you will find, with equipment you dont always find at every other gym. Everything you need in a gym!!

Locally owned and operated...BEST selection of free-weights in town!!

Lower key local gym, with simple structural lay out, great range of machines, free weights (you wont run out of weights.....) and most important of all, it was spotlessly clean. The outside might give the impression it is just a shed, but it actually is a REALLY good facility and worth a visit and or a membership. Good experience.

Great gym with great owners. Would highly recommend!!

WNC Barbell is an excellent neighborhood gym. Lots of equipment and free weights to choose from. Great staff, too!

Love this gym and the 24/7 access- best in town!

Great gym if your there to work out. It has all the equipment I need for heavy lifting . If your coming to sit around and chit chat and clog up the equipment go to golds.👍🏻

Great gym local gym with plenty of space to workout safely. Sanitizing spray bottles and clean towels provided for your health and safety, to clean before and after use of equipment, machines and weights

Great gym for those looking to get after it and improve as an individual!

Great place to get a good workout in. Always clean!

Perfect place to workout when you want with what you want. A good gym isnt brand new and fresh smelling, its not a country club and this gym isnt rundown, top of line service and equipment.

Mike is awesome! Local gym that has been in business for years. Equipment is top notch just like the service.

Going here has helped me so much. I have never felt that comfortable in a gym before but I do here - WNC Barbell is probably the only place I feel is what a gym should be like. Thanks Greg and your team for the effort you put in to make this place welcoming to ALL especially with all the new updates and renovations you have done. Thanks.

Really nice gym, staff is professional and helpful.

Absolutely love this gym! Its a gym to train hard, no bells and whistles but all the equipment you could ever ask for and its in good working order. Love its age, reminds me of an old bodybuilding and powerlifting oriented gym. They have very reasonable prices and no bureaucracy. You guys rock!

We came here while visiting family over Christmas. Great gym and everyone is super friendly. We will definitely be coming back when we are in town again.

Great gym! Greg is always great to deal with and keeps the equipment top notch!

Owner continues to ignore me, many months after countless calls/emails/FB posts/etc. I have continued to receive delinquency threats that have NO DIRECTIONS or contact info in order to settle the matter. Avoid this place at all costs.

I like to go in the evening, nice atmosphere

Ive worked out here a few times with clients. Good looking gym. Hours are a little short for me and Id like some type of Sunday option but for most people they would be fine. Clean with a good selection of weights, plus there is a martial arts following here so if you like to spar you have that option.

Great atmosphere and great people. Always clean!

Great Place, Good atmosphere & kind management

Large space with more equipment than youd ever need.

Great gym. Friendly Staff

Great place, helpful staff, best gym in Asheville

Best gym in western North Carolina

Excellent gym. Plenty of space, equipment, programs, and trainers.

Very clean facility. I never had to wait to use any of the machines.

Great atmosphere and workout equipment......love it!!!

Great place to weight train.

Good gym but wouldn’t cancel my membership when I wanted to leave even though I was on a month to month contract. Billed me 3 times after I cancelled, had to get a new credit card to stop them.

Great gym, great people!

Great gym good people

Great Atmosphere, Nice Equipment
