I recently hit my 100 class milestone. I love The Junkyard and I look forward to more milestones! Something about the community stuck out but I wasn't completely sold at first. After not coming to class for a couple weeks Sam reached out to make sure everything was going well. This is just one example of how the staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome. I was determined to stick with it primarily because of the community. It wasn't until I signed up for Junkyard+ on a whim that I started coming to class more consistently. This membership option includes unlimited classes, nutrition coaching, monthly 1 on 1 training sessions, online workouts and more. Getting my nutrition in order has allowed me to work even harder in the gym and have better recovery. I don't think I would have sought out a nutritionist if I didn't do Junkyard +, but I'm glad I did because it has been extremely helpful. The coaches and staff are all amazing. I enjoy going to Kelly's classes because she pushes me to my limits by giving me "the look" if my weights are too light. Anybody that has been to her class knows what I'm referring to. She always helps with form and modifications. The JY staff are always organizing events and opportunities for community and getting to know fellow Junkies. JY+ has been the best investment I've made for myself!

Awesome workouts with amazing coaches! Always leave feeling exhausted and accomplished. Coaches are the perfect motivators to push you to your limits and get the best out of your workout! Love the breakdown of all the workouts a perfect mix of cardio and lifting. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Great workout! It’s high energy and everyone is encouraged to push yourself, but it’s only as hard as you want to make it. In other words work at your own pace. This is circuit training at its best in my opinion - coach lead, group participation, loud music, low lights. Everyone is there to do work not look around at everyone. I was new and didn’t know anyone but I was perfectly welcome. Everything was well explained and I was paired up with another coach who was there for the workout. The location is perfect for anyone within 5-10 miles of downtown Greenville. Should be able to get there really quick. It’s tucked behind Carolina Bauernhaus - same parking lot - don’t let GPS take you down Doe St. Also the Google maps satellite image is way out of date - all the surrounding buildings are renovated. The setting is super cool. Took a few pics. Anyone who is thinking of trying Orange Theory or Iron Tribe or CrossFit or anything like that should definitely give the Junkyard a shot.

The Junkyard is owned by Marcus Brown and Ben Boulward. The name originated from Ben’s college football nickname. After college they wanted to create a space to be seen and heard without the judgment, allowing for a therapeutic fitness experience. Let that rage out! The dark aesthetic and no mirrors was intentional, so no influencer mirror selfies in this place, not that you would even have time! They created Junkyard to give everyone that sense of community/comradery and accountability that they had through team sports. Giving everyone a feeling of togetherness through fitness. Taking pride in greeting everyone by name and getting to know everyone’s specific training style. They WILL push you past your comfort zone with tough love, so embrace the uncomfortable and prepare for growth, mental and physical. The Junkyard hosts community outings, kickball and even mud run events for its members. While also supporting the community as a whole working with Habitat for Humanity, Rebuild Upstate, Clothes Drives, and Food Drives. This is an all ages gym with members ranging from 16 to 60+ participating in their Cross Training and Endurance Cardio classes. The Junkyard has 4 locations: Greenville, Anderson, Clemson and their newest location at Bridgeway Station in Mauldin

Such a great workout! Very tough but still able to modify to your preferences! I haven’t worked out this hard and felt this good since I was an athlete in high school! Great, motivating and highly knowledgeable trainers! I especially love how well laid out and creative the workouts are! Highly recommend!

I just took my second class here and absolutely loved it. I'm normally someone who works out alone, so going somewhere that's group/class/HIIT format was a little anxiety-producing at first. I felt welcome and supported from the minute I stepped in. Desk staff got me squared away and went over the flow of the class (and gym layout), and the instructor (Cody) kept eyes on me throughout to make sure I wasn't getting lost in the exercises, and I also noticed he was checking on my form to ensure I wasn't causing self-injury-which I really appreciated. I definitely recommend the Junkyard. Maybe I'll see you in a class!

The Junkyard is an incredible workout community that has had a profound impact on my life. The atmosphere, the dedicated staff, and the challenging workouts have all contributed to my personal growth. The coaches continually motivate me to push my limits, and even on the toughest days, I always leave feeling uplifted. The sense of community at The Junkyard is unparalleled, and I am grateful to be a part of it. Coaches, Kelly, Jenn, Ian, Travis, Ben, Garrett, and Matt are always so ENCOURAGING and FUN! Come and check it out, you will be hooked!

I’m so happy to have found The Junkyard through ClassPass! It’s been a great, challenging yet attainable workout while traveling to Greenville. The instructors are motivating, knowledgeable, and take the time to thoroughly review every movement of the workout. The structure of the classes at The Junkyard is so unique. If you’ve been to any other music-based gym/studio… you HAVE to try a class here! The format and workouts are unmatched, and the space—and people— provide an intrinsic motivation to work a little harder and accomplish more than you thought you could. Highly recommend, and I will be back during my frequent business trips to the area.

I love the junkyard workout. The community is unmatched and the enthusiasm and motivation from EVERYONE in the gym that day is what makes me love the class and call my workout FUN. Being pushed to do one more rep or go a little faster by a coach is what you get when you come here and it makes every minute worth it. I leave feeling strong and happy!

Such a great and fun workout! The coaches were so amazing and while the workouts were hard, they were able to be accommodated to one’s needs. Felt really motivated the whole time and overall, such a great community of people.

If personalization, community, variety of workout are at the top of your dream gym expectations, then look no further than the Junkyard! I’ve been going for over a year now and have never done the same workout twice. My name is used every single time I attend a workout. They celebrate, connect, and challenge you all at the same time. The best part, it all authentic!! It’s not just a show. It’s an intentional effort to win your business and make you feel seen, heard, and valued. Give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.

This gym is unlike anything I have ever been to. The attention to detail in all aspects is astonishing. As someone who loves pushing their limits, moving in all different ranges of motion, and with a community of other high functioning people this place checks all the boxes. I completed my first ever trail half-marathon, my training consisted of the Junkyard and runs of 6-miles or less, and I finished in the top 20! I cannot thank the team and coaches at The Junkyard enough for pushing me to be my best.

As a college student, I could not recommended this gym enough!! I started going to the Junkyard just to try something new and it ended up changing my life! If you're anything like me, trying to get myself to workout at the packed university gym was quite the feat, and I was quickly falling out of shape in college. The Junkyard not only got me back in shape, but also gave me a community that cared about me and pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of. The coaches are absolutely amazing- they pay attention to each individual in the class and encourage you constantly. The college student membership discount was also great! It was enough money to hold me accountable for showing up to the classes, but didn't break the broke-college-student's bank. If you're a college student or just someone who might have fallen off the workout wagon, the Junkyard is a MUST TRY!

The Junkyard has been the best gym and workout experience I have ever been apart of. The community is so welcoming and the coaches and staff make an individual effort to invest in YOU. The staff puts together a great workout every time, and the thing I love about the workouts is that they are functional. I've had muscle strains in the past from sports, and the exercises at the Junkyard have really helped strengthen my weaker muscle groups and given me a more balanced and functioning body. I HIGHLY recommend you come and try the junkard!

My husband and I recently joined The Junkyard after having moved to Greenville and we LOVE IT! All of the coaches are incredibly encouraging and motivating. The workouts are creative and challenging but as some one mentioned only as difficult as you yourself make it (I'm sure some of the coaches want me to make it harder....). We have felt so welcomed by The entire Junkyard Community, if you are considering a gym to join, congrats - you have found it!

The Junkyard quickly became one of my favorite places to go every morning to workout! The atmosphere made it so easy to get up at 4:30am to attend a 5:15am class! The coaches know you by name and encourage you to never give up! Forever thankful for the junkyard!

I’ve always been intimated by gyms and do not look forward to going but for this gym that can’t be farther from the case! It’s a very inclusive environment and the coaches really go out of their way to get to know your name and make you feel comfortable, honestly so do the other members. The workouts are hard, I won’t sugarcoat it, but I always feel extremely accomplished when I’m done. I really enjoy the low light setting of the gym and the loud music that keeps everything upbeat and fast paced, it really helps you focus on your own workout and not what others are doing around you.

Ashley Alvarez

This is hands down the best place to get an awesome workout! The environment is amazing - nothing like any other gym from the lighting to the music. The coaches are awesome - each have their own way of motivating you. I use to workout at PF 5-6 days a week and once I stopped seeing results I started at The Junkyard. I started seeing results again with 1-2 classes a week versus 5-6 days of 45+ at the gym and a very low carb diet. This place is amazing and you will see and feel the results.

I recently tried the Junkyard for the first time, and really enjoyed it! Let's face it- trying a new gym for the first time alone can be uncomfortable, but everyone here was very welcoming! I loved the format and the music and got an excellent workout. Afterward, I took advantage of the showers! It was very clean and the towels were fluffy. I will 10/10 be back!

Hands down the best workout experience I’ve ever had. The workout itself was a mental and physical challenge, but it’s the environment which makes it entirely unique. The coaches push you when they have to, encourage you when they need to, but always make you better. The music and lighting create an atmosphere different from any gym I’ve seen. Come see for yourself!

I cant say enough positive things about my experience at the Junkyard. I started with a free class and Im now almost to my 10th class. The coaches are awesome and its a great group of people that go there. The workout is unlike no other and you will get out of it what you put into it. You can modify if you need to and I have never felt judged when I do. It makes you push yourself to another level. The workouts change day to day and the music and coaches keep keep the momentum going. Highly recommend the Junkyard!!!

Ellen Dobson

Such a great gym! Each workout is unique and challenging in the best of ways. Definitely feel a sense of community that I’ve never felt before in other “boutique” fitness studios! All of the staff are friendly and welcoming and know each and every person by name regardless of how many classes they’ve attended. Having eighty/twenty cafe in the same building is also a huge plus!! As always, “I hate you, I hate this place, see you tomorrow”!

Andreia Wardlaw

My favorite workout in Greenville! It’s super challenging but the coaches are all so amazing and encouraging. They make the effort to remember you and push you to go harder every class. It awakens the athlete inside of everyone!!

Anna Mapes

I have just recently started going to the Junkyard thanks to a friend who invited me to go, and thank God she did because I am HOOKED! The workouts are incredible and leave you feeling so strong and accomplished! The coaches are absolutely amazing and push you to a place you didn’t know you could go to. I teach fitness classes, so this is my kind of fun on the side, getting to do something for me! I am so thankful I had the courage to step through those doors, because I can’t wait to go back after each and every class, and can’t imagine never experiencing this type of place. Thank you for making the Junkyard absolutely amazing!

Fun and creative workouts, the best music, super friendly staff — and the overall best gym experience you could ask for. Your instructor greets you at the door, makes it a priority to learn your name, and challenges you during the class. My first class Connor made me feel extremely welcomed & explained how everything works — 8 classes later and I committed to the unlimited class membership. My wife and I love that it’s a place people can’t take gym selfies, be a meathead, or give long open-mouth stares towards you like members do at other gyms. Everyone is just focused on self-improvement and the workouts are so intense your ego might as well stay out in the parking lot. Join the Junkyard. You will sleep better. Feel better. Automatically want to eat healthier. And you will definitely achieve the fitness results you are looking for — or either you will give up and quit going. But one of the two will happen. Joining the Junkyard was definitely at the top of my priority list in terms of things I was looking forward to once moving to Greenville. And it has definitely has lived up to the hype.

This is hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to! The energy is absolutely incredible, which makes you want to keep coming back, and you’ll never see the same workout twice. The coaches know your limits and know how/when to push you. It’ll be the best workout of your life!

Sydney Patton

LOVE this place. As a former college athlete, I was in desperate need of a gym that pushed me to my limits (in a good way), challenged me, and gave me a healthy outlet for my competitive energy. The workout structure and atmosphere is unmatched to any gym that I have attended - you cannot and will not just go through the motions here. Each workout is thoughtfully planned out and provides aspects of both cardio and strength training AND the coaches care about technique! Both the coaches and Junkies are EXTREMELY motivating and supportive - I look forward to getting my butt kicked every single class multiple times a week. Worth every penny. Also have to give a shoutout to Eighty-Twenty, the cafe in the Greenville location. The best smoothies I have ever had - can't leave a class without one.

When I signed up for my first class I thought this was going to be like every other gym. This gym has been so much more than that. I am so glad I can call this gym home and all the members my family. The support that the staff provides for its clients is beyond top tier. The staff cares about every single individual and that is what separates this gym from its competitors. Even if you don’t live in the Greenville/Anderson I would suggest visiting this gym. First class is free and I guarantee you it will have an impact on your life like it did mine. If you want a gym family that cares about your goals then come home to the Junkyard.
