Look what we have here. A vintage @nautilusstrength Pullover machine. One of the most effective ways to train your lats. It’s amazing how many other brands tried to make a pullover, and almost all of them failed to compare. Nothing isolates the lats from stretch to contraction like this machine. Popularized by @thedorianyates back in the 90s, because he used one to develop his legendary Mr Olympia back. Since then, every serious gym has always been on the lookout for one. T...hese are very rare, and even more rare to find one in this type of condition. We are extremely happy to have it here at the gym to make your workouts even more effective.

It’s very hard to hear of the passing of Chuck Straceny, he was 50yrs old. @chuckyblueeyes was part of the fabric of the bodybuilding and gym community in BC. He was a member of every gym in our current location for almost 20 years, and he joined us the day we opened. Wise, experienced, respectful, loyal, and kind. He treated the members and staff like family. He was one of those regulars that had a permanent seat at the juice bar, and all the staff members knew his shake.... It was impossible to be around him without seeing him smile and hearing his laugh. He brought those with him wherever he went. We will make sure to blast the Van Halen and Motley Crüe a notch louder in memory of one of the best members any gym has ever had. Thanks for the memories Chuck. #family #love #life Photo Credit: @quadrablue See more

Please apply in person with a resume, and let us know your availability. #helpwanted #westcoastiron

All the new @atlantisstrength equipment arrives very soon, and we are really looking forward to the new Leg Press! It’s a workhorse for sure. With every piece we add, and every change we make, we are constantly striving to upgrade the gym. WEST COAST IRON...Come ‘N Train!!! #westcoastiron #atlantisstrength #realgym #legday #portcoquitlam

We appreciate all the amazing support we’ve gotten since opening again post-shutdown. You have all been wiping your equipment, putting your weights away, and generally sharing the gym with everyone. You’ve also been buying shakes, and supps, and clothing. It really makes a difference. You have all helped to make the gym stronger. The community down here can’t be beat! WEST COAST IRON...Come ‘N Train!!! #westcoastiron #portcoquitlam #realgym #hoodies #legday #fitness

Here’s another upgrade that we can’t wait to arrive. The @atlantisstrength Power Squat. It’s time to replace our trusty old one, so we wanted to upgrade things with this beast. This is a great piece for doing multiple exercises. Face outwards for a very quad dominant style of squat. Face inwards for a more power style squat. Or use it as a good morning/hamstring/glute exercise. It’s a fantastic machine with many uses. Looking forward to the arrival of our new Atlantis order! WEST COAST IRON...Come ‘N Train!! #westcoastiron #realgym #portcoquitlam #atlantisstrength

The gym often tells us what it needs. It’s clear that we could use another pec-dec/rear delt machine. The one we have is always being used, so we decided to add the @atlantisstrength Pec/Rear Delt Machine to the gym floor. We are excited to receive this order from Atlantis and we will keep giving you sneak peeks of the upgrades we have coming soon.

We figured we would start to show you some of the new pieces we have coming to upgrade the gym. We’ve been wanting one of these since we opened. So what better time than now to bring this in. The @atlantisstrength Standing Side Raise Machine. Fantastic shoulder piece. We hope everyone loves it, and it helps contribute to the development of a lot of cannonball sized delts! Stand by for more upgrade announcements, as we have several things coming. WEST COAST IRON...Come ‘N Train!!! #westcoastiron #atlantisstrength #realgym #upgrade #delts #portcoquitlam

Its fantastic to see everyone getting after it and pushing hard. Like @reidgiraud, getting ready to smash some heavy squats. Seeing all the members feeding off each others energy again, and stepping up their game is awesome. Its the whole point of this gym...to find out what your capable of.

At our gym, the primary focus has always been the quality of your workout. Its #1 here. We wanted to create and sustain a motivating atmosphere that helps bring out that fire inside you that you may have forgotten about. The intensity. The drive to push yourself. I have the BEST workouts here is something we hear it all the time from our members. That makes us happy, and lets us know that we are keeping up what we set out to do.

Week 1 of the re-open in the books. All closed up for the night. The staff has busted their butts this week, and you have all been great! Its been quite the ride, and we want to thank everybody who has come down to support the gym. We know the conditions and regulations arent ideal, so we just ask you to bare with us and we will all get through this together. We remind you all that this is your house, so make sure you follow the rules and everyone will get to workout. - M...ake sure you put ALL your weights away. Your mom isnt here to clean up after you. - Keep your workout short. 75min max, and 1 hour during peak times is even more helpful. We will be checking your scan in times and doing the rounds. So please help us all out. - Remember to physical distance. For example, if someone is on a machine, dont use the machine right next to them. Use one of the other machines. With only 40 people in here there is plenty of room for everyone. Not everyone is as comfortable returning to the gym as you may be. - No loitering or congregating. Its not allowed by the health dept. We are not supposed to be chatting and standing together. Please take any chatting outside so that others can enter the gym. - No supersets or sharing equipment. Only people from the same household can train together. Please have proof in case we have to ask. - Spray and wipe everything you touch, and sanitize your hands often. If we just stay patient and follow the rules, we will be past this sooner than later. WEST COAST IRON...Come N Train!!! #rules #westcoastiron #realgym #family #community @ West Coast Iron See more

6 feet. We would like to thank everyone who attended our first day back. This has been the biggest challenge gyms have ever faced, and you have all helped us through to the other side. Lets all work together by following the guidelines and leading by example. Lets remember that some of us feel much more comfortable than others about returning to the gym. We got this.

Well, day one back in business and we have a lot to be thankful for. First and foremost we want to thank all members. You have all been amazingly supportive during the shutdown, and we are extremely happy to see your faces again. We know many of you kept your membership billing going, so we will be issuing a $50 GC for each of you. Just hang tight until we have the full list compiled and we will hand them out as you come in. As for new members, we have decided to eliminate t...he 1 month membership, for NEW members, for the time being. We will still sign up new members, but only to the Bi-Weekly contracts, or 6mth or 1 year buy outs. We have a certain number of members that we have in mind to keep the gym running, and we dont want to have too many members for the restrictions that are placed on us right now. Since the 1 month is so popular, it makes sense to not offer it at this time, UNLESS you were already a member before the shutdown. Hope you can all understand. This is a brand new situation for everyone, and we are just making sure we adjust as any issues arise. Also, as we said before, no drop ins or trials at this time. Overall, the response from everyone today was extremely positive. We had a massive amount of compliance with sanitation and distancing protocols. Thank you for keeping your workouts to 1 hour max, as it is key to making sure other members get to workout. Lets all work together and find our way through these difficult restrictions.

Spoke with News 1130 about our opening. They had several spots they played all day long, and this printed piece. Thank you to News 1130 for the exposure and positive vibe.

OPENING Tuesday, May 19 at 5am. More details soon. Back in business again. Thanks for all the amazing support through this crisis. We arent done yet, so follow the rules and keep our community strong. We need you to all work together to make sure the gym functions within the guidelines set for the near future. We will get past all this soon. More details to come. Check our story often over the weekend as we update you all.

Everyone is asking when we will open. As of right now, Fraser Healths order to close gyms expires at the end of the month, so we will open June 1 at the latest. However, we are very hopeful that it may be lifted sooner. So stay tuned, and watch our IG for updates. WEST COAST IRON...Come N Train!!! #westcoastiron #realgym #portcoquitlam #smallbusiness #opengyms #supportlocalbusiness #fitness

We know that many people have been left without a gym to go back to, and others just want to start fresh at a new spot. So we are happy to announce that we will start selling memberships Tuesday May 12, in anticipation of opening soon. 1 year bi-weekly $24.99 +gst 1 month no contract $62.99 +gst 1 year pre-paid $549.99 +gst... 25% OFF all clothing!! Email us at [email protected], or drop by the gym between 12-4pm Tuesday to Friday this week. Please remember, only one customer inside at a time, please line up outside if needed.

We have been working hard to prepare the gym for reopening. As of right now, we are still awaiting an exact date, but we do promise to open as soon as we possibly can. We will be enforcing heavy sanitation, distancing, headcount, and other protocols to ensure we comply with all the work safe and health board requirements. We will strive to keep the experience of training at our gym, as genuine as possible, while we deal with the extra regulations that will be in place during ...this next phase. We strongly believe that if we practice all the wipe down/hand washing, being courteous to other members about physical distance, and take on our own personal responsibilities to ensure we all do our part, the gym can continue to be the best place in the world for many of us. We will keep you up to speed on things to come. Hang tight, we are almost there.

One thing a lot of people have realized during this crisis, is the unbelievable value of a squat rack! Who has made a home gym purchase of some kind since the shutdown? Its been madness out there. Dont worry, no matter what your situation is currently, we will be here for you when we open back up. WEST COAST IRON...Come N Train!!! #westcoastiron #portcoquitlam #homegym #hardcore #realgym #goodmusic #fatloss #tricities

Its hard to see the gym empty. We miss each and every one of you. We see you coming up with home workouts, and tagging us in your hikes. Its amazing to see your creativity and ingenuity. From improvised exercises, to homemade equipment, we applaud your efforts. Trust us, we see and feel the frustration just as you do. Cant wait to get back at it.

All of us are realizing theres at least a few things weve been taking for granted in our lives. Like having a gym to call home. Those flags that hang in the gym remind us of how good we have it in Canada, and we dont ever want to take those things for granted again. When this is all over, we want to be standing tall like those towers.

Its crazy to look back on pics from when we opened in Oct 2017. The gym has come so far. Seeing it grow both as a gym, and as a culture, has been amazing. We are extremely fortunate to have the sense of community that you all provide to the gym. One of the things we hear the most about the gym, is that the atmosphere is incredible. Well, thats YOU. Atmosphere is all about the people. Well, maybe the music helps....but the people are key. So thank you for your support, and for all your contributions to the culture of the gym. We are looking forward to getting back in there with you all, and growing the gym to the next level. WEST COAST IRON...Come N Train!!! #portcoquitlam #smallbusiness #tricities #realgym #family

We cant wait to have everyone back at the juice bar, as we serve up your favorite post workout smoothies. We miss all the members hanging out and socializing. We know that the gym is the only time some people have to forget about the outside world. Its nice to say hi to some friends, or share a laugh with the staff. The culture of our gym is based on community and supporting each other. Its greatly missed by us all. Lets hang tight and stay patient. We will all be back together as soon as possible. #westcoastiron #family #smallbusiness #portcoquitlam #realgym #strength #fitness #juicebar

Ahh the memories. Doors up, music thumpin. Everybody working out. Staying strong together, even when we arent able to gather in our favorite place. We have suddenly all realized how important the gym is to each one of us. Thank you to all our members, friends, and family. Your support is incredible. We will all get through this together.
