What They Say
Straight from the regulars.
“The most hardcore gym I've been too. Hard to find a hidden gem like this. A real man beast gym. The owner, John, is an incredible human being — we talk about the gym and the history behind it. If you're into extreme hardcore gyms, this is a clone similar to the Arlington Metroflex. Any hardcore lifter should experience Body Doc's Gym at least once in a lifetime.”

“This is a no frills hardcore bodybuilding and strength training gym that sits just outside the city center. The owner is very nice and personable. The equipment comes from many different generations of bodybuilding. I recommend this gym to anyone who takes lifting seriously and wants something that's not LA Fitness.”

“When booking a trip to NOLA, finding a good gym is always a must. Body Docs is an old school, hardcore gym housing any equipment needed for a great workout. This family owned gym was definitely built for iron enthusiasts. I recommend those looking for a good sweat and metal weights to head over!”
