This gym is my third space. The equipment is fine but it’s the community I love.

I trained here a couple times while on vacation in the area. Great gym! Has everything a strongperson, powerlifter, weightlifter, etc. would need to train for their sport. Loved the outdoor area that they have, felt like a playground for gym rats. Blake was very accommodating of my needs, and everyone I interacted with while training was super nice.

I've been a class member for 6 months and the programming is great! I was looking for good technique instruction and to safely lift heavy weights without the HIIT circuits of many other gyms. There is a LOT of equipment and all of the coaches and members are super friendly. I really appreciate the welcoming atmosphere and affirmation of LGBTQ athletes. I've gotten PRs on all of my strength lifts recently!

Absolutely fantastic gym! I was traveling for a family reunion and needed a place to get a workout in for a couple of days. What a great find! This gym has everything you could possibly need, whether you're a seasoned gym-goer or just looking to get a solid workout. I really appreciated that all their equipment uses plates; I felt like it gave me a much more effective workout. The real bonus was the sauna, cold plunge, and showers – perfect for starting the day right. It's also very affordable for travelers, incredibly clean, and has a really peaceful atmosphere. Blake was awesome and super easy to work with, making the whole experience even better. Highly recommend!

I’ve been a member at Music City Muscle for over 4 months and there is no better gym in Nashville. The coaches are dedicated and some of the best in their field and the gym itself is welcoming. You could be intimidated walking in the first day but I promise it’ll be the best decision you make. I’m a former college athlete who was looking for structure and to get stronger. I found both and so much more at MCM. I love the “old school” gym atmosphere and that the coaches put technique first. At MCM they walk the walk. If you’re looking for accountability, community, and to get stronger - look no further.
