Off of Woodson and Midland in Overland... it's a very good gym. Apparently they've been around for 40+ years so they're a staple in the community. They provide combat sports training & sparring. There's also a weight room and sauna. My only thing is things are a bit outdated.

I love the old school gym feel and its 24 hours...pretty much all the gym to myself most days

I love gyms, but not all gyms are created equal. This gym is a real gym. No added bs or overcrowded. Perfect for those who hate commercial gyms and love the smell of pure metal clanking against itself. It’s pure grinding, heavy sweating, catching breaths, PR setting work outs. I love it here. The owners are cool and deadlift heavy. Wish I lived in St. Louis or I’d make this place home. But for the few months I’m here, Eagles Gym is home

Eagle Gym is an old school hardcore bodybuilding, powerlifting, strongman, boxing club type gym. If you love the sound of 45lb iron plates slamming together and you want to get brutally strong, Eagle Gym is the place for you. You can chalk up your hands, go for that new deadlift PR, and the gym will be cheering you on. Now under new ownership the gym is expanding into kickboxing, wrestling, jiu jitsu, MMA, etc. I first stepped foot into Eagle Gym over 15 years ago and loved the place ever since. Rick King the original founder and owner of Eagle Gym is a legend in the bodybuilding, powerlifting, strongman world, and Matt (the previous owner/manager) is also an extremely nice man with an extensive knowledge of bodybuilding, strongman, and powerlifting. I have a lot of fond memories training strongman events in the parking lot behind Eagle Gym or just getting my pump on inside the gym going down the dumbbell rack. I just signed up to the gym last week, met the new owners (who are very nice people), and I am excited to begin regularly going to the gym. I live 35 minutes away from the gym and I drive past a ton of gyms to make it to Eagle Gym. I am looking forward to the future of Eagle Gym keeping the hardcore bodybuilding, powerlifting, strongman, and boxing culture it is known for while also expanding the gym to include kickboxing, wrestling, jiu jitsu, and MMA. The gym membership is extremely affordable, and the new owners are very easy to work with. For the cost of some junk food and soda, you can afford a gym membership at Eagle Gym. Do yourself a favor, sign up to Eagle Gym, and get strong, healthy, and learn how to box.

Dirty, dingy, and amazing. One of the best gyms I've been to. It has the feel of an old school bodybuilding or powerlifting gym. They had plenty of equipment and boxing stuff. Also had the monolift and a bunch of strongman equipment. The owner was great, older gent who has been there and done that in the bodybuilding world and great to talk to. It was $5 for a single visit pass.
