Gerry Dziub

Gerry "Jube" — Owner, operator & trainer

Gerry's spent 25+ years putting people under the bar. A former powerlifter, he built Ironworks as the antidote to the modern gym: no sign-up desk, no rows of treadmills, no upsell — just a garage full of iron and one coach who watches every rep.

He knows anatomy cold. Clients come to him to get strong — and to fix what other trainers broke. He builds every routine in his head, on the spot, for whoever walks in: from 15-year-olds to 85-year-olds, first-timers to pro athletes.
