Just in town for a day and was excited to see this gym was close to my hotel. Decent sized gym with great selection of equipment. Loved the outdoor work area with stones and a keg. Only thing that people should know ahead of time is concerning the day passes. The website says to stop in between 7 am and 7 pm and get a day pass from a staff member, but when I showed up there around 10 am, no staff were around. Luckily a member let me in once I showed him that I'd purchased a day pass. He also said that the owner/staff aren't in at predictable times, so it's best to call ahead if you're trying to use a day pass. If you have a monthly membership they have key fobs for 24/7 access.
I was visiting Charleston and found this gym! I like to visit Charleston a lot and now I know where to go every time! The gym has great equipment and the atmosphere was chill and nonjudgmental. The owner was personable and helpful. I recommend this gym for locals and visitors.
Hands down my favorite gym in downtown Charleston. Good equipment, good people. They have equipment for every athlete whether its Olympic lifting, strongman, or gymnastics. Highly recommend
This gym is awesome! Along with the cool setup, and the specialty equipment it is one of the few gyms that has a Donkey Calf Machine! This is the gym to go to if you're out of town or looking for a gym to go too when moving in to town. It's open 24 hours a day.
This is possibly the best gym in the Charleston area, great equipment, great atmosphere, 24 hour access and the rates aren't bad at all. Highly recommend.
Traveling to Charleston from out of town and looking to lift some weights. Every other "gym" I found online was either a cycling studio, cross fit gym, or some other fitness center where you could take aerobics classes. All I wanted was to move some weight around, and Big Works let me do just that. The price for a day pass was cheap ($10), and the owner was really helpful working with me so I could come in early with the time slot that worked for my schedule. For any other combat veterans out there, this gym reminded me a lot lifting in Iraq...basically a plywood structure with big fans circulating the air around a large room full of old free weights. What more could you want?

Pros: lots of squat racks, specialty barbells, plates and equipment. Strength training oriented facility. No one bothers you while you train.
Cons: not climate controlled. In winter, one can wear sweats, hoodie, beanie caps, etc. In summer, not only will performance suffer, heat exhaustion or stroke are real possibility.

Great spot! Nice racks, room to deadlift, bumpers, etc. Owner was friendly, too.
I was in town for a wedding and had the chance to stop by and lift at this spot. Great experience for sure. There is a ton of powerlifting and strength-training equipment to choose from, and having other dedicated lifters around creates a great atmosphere for lifting. Will be back next time I am in town!

Friendly staff, good environment to work out, fantastic equipment. Wish there were 6 stars!
My wife and I trained here every day during our vacation in charleston. Great facility for anyone looking to get stronger and more fit. It has all you need and no frills (which is exactly what we look for). Staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. We couldn't say enough nice things about this place and were sad to leave for the last time when we left charleston.
Great place to get in a lift. Plenty of racks and benches, so no waiting. They even have a spot to lift outside.
Home away from home! We were in Charleston for a wedding and looking for a place to grab a workout. This place is awesome. The owner showed up on a Sunday to let us in so we could drop in ($10) and treated us like old friends. (Other gyms in the area were $20-$25). The gym is clean and has everything you need from weights to cardio. I highly recommend stopping by Big Works!
Absolutely a great place to train for the people that are serious and expect results. The gym is fully equipped with sorinex equipment. Great atmosphere to get results. My suggestion for anyone is to keep driving past pivotal fitness or snap fitness and go here. Excellent gym where you can get real results.
Great equipment. If you love a gritty gym with lots of squat racks and free weights, this is your gym.
The facility was incredible. The owner and manager are both very nice and helpful and they have equipment that is great for any type of fitness!
