Legends Gym

Fantastic experience: Really good old school muscle gym, great equipment, big range of weights for my pull session and guy behind the desk super friendly. Would definitely recommend it and will be back

Fantastic experience: I will never forget the day I stumbled upon Legend Gym in Bishopsworth, Bristol. As a parent, finding a safe and empowering environment for my 15-year-old son to pursue his fitness goals was always a top priority. Little did I know that this hidden gem would not only fulfill that requirement but also ignite a flame of motivation and inspiration within him. From the moment we stepped foot inside the gym, it was clear that this was no ordinary fitness facility. The owner, a passionate and dedicated individual, greeted us with a warm smile and a genuine interest in our fitness aspirations. He took the time to listen to my son's goals, offering guidance and expertise tailored to his unique needs. Not only was the owner knowledgeable, but his love for fitness and personal growth was contagious. It was evident that he saw each person who walked through those doors not simply as a client, but as a potential success story waiting to be written. He radiated enthusiasm and dedication, acting as a constant source of motivation for all who crossed his path. But it wasn't just the owner who left an indelible impression on us; Legend Gym was filled with a community of like-minded individuals who shared our passion for tackling personal obstacles and pushing beyond limits. The camaraderie that blossomed within those walls was awe-inspiring. It felt like an extended family, always encouraging and pushing one another to reach new heights. The gym itself boasted state-of-the-art equipment, meticulously maintained to ensure a safe and effective workout environment. Legend Gym transcended the confines of standard fitness establishments. It became a sanctuary where dreams found wings and ambitions were nurtured. The impact it had on my son's self-confidence and overall well-being is immeasurable. He went from a shy and unsure teenager to a determined and fearless young man, ready to take on any challenge life throws his way. As a parent, witnessing such a transformation is a gift beyond measure. To see my son motivated, inspired, and passionate about physical fitness is a testament to the incredible environment that Legend Gym has cultivated. It is a testament to the owner and the amazing individuals who make up this remarkable community. Legend Gym in Bishopsworth, Bristol, is more than just a place to work out. It is a place where dreams are realized, where personal growth takes flight, and where the mind, body, and soul are united in pursuit of greatness. For anyone seeking a gym that goes beyond the conventional, where motivation and inspiration thrive, I wholeheartedly recommend this haven. It is the place that has forever changed my son's life and, undoubtedly, the lives of countless others.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, both lovely staff and members which are friendly. Feels like a standard nitty gritty gym which doesn't have the commercial feeling gyms such as PureGym or Gym group has. Lovely go in, lift, and have fun mentality that you just need :)

Fantastic experience: Definitely a great gym if you’re a beginner (which I am). Staff are friendly, knowledgable and supportive. Had lots of help from Andy learning the main barbell exercises and he taught me how to use all the different equipment with proper form. He’s an expert in fitness and knows a lot about nutrition too. The range of equipment as well as the advice and support you receive is well worth the membership.

Fantastic experience: Great proper gym

Fantastic experience: Good gym

Fantastic experience: Great, no nonsense gym.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym

Fantastic experience: To be the best go to the best!! I was a bit skeptical about going in as a new member but I was very welcomed and staff are more than happy to help with your training nice place to train

Fantastic experience: Here is where i started my first day of gym i will never forget it and i liked.

Fantastic experience: Legends are not born they are created from blood Sweat and tears and if you don't have any then you are not pushing yourself hard enough

Fantastic experience: Legends Gym in Bristol is a great gym. Old School kinda gym with a great range of different equipment (some equipment that most gyms won’t actually have). The atmosphere in Legends is great, there are some really top people that train there and the staff are very knowledgeable and welcoming/friendly. The gym is clean for it being an old-school feel gym and it’s just an all round really good gym.

Negative experience: I would have given Legends 5 stars had it not been for how they conduct their membership, they are a good local gym with friendly knowledgeable staff and the gym has a refreshingly Old School proper weights gym feel about it. Something missing from some of the newer gyms... I was reliably informed "If you can lift here with our equipment you can lift anywhere". So why am I giving them 1 star? Because of their association with Ashbourne Management. I paid a month in cash & had a couple of sessions helped by a member of their staff to learn to use their equipment... The same as if I were to go to any other gym which offers free induction & so they can check you're using the right form or not as they are legally obliged to make sure I know how to safely use the equipment, for myself & for the other members, important in respect of squats with weights & deadlifts! & as part of this and for a month I paid my money in cash. If you are intending to pay monthly and are happy to pay by cash or card, I would recommend you use this facility rather than 1 of their 'long term memberships'. You can still budget easily & the main thing best part is that you are not tied in to any contract! That was what I was looking to do originally. Pay for each session, then it was mentioned to me it would be a lot cheaper to pay per month which it is... But then they said if you invest longer stick with us longer then we will be able to look after you more... Who wouldn't want that from a gym? some attention to detail by members of staff in a gym checking our form & giving us hints & tips & helping us to progress .. after all, if we become good & I was hoping to be as a newcomer to weights, then it would benefit me & look good for the gym (& rightly so)... But that's where the problem begins... Because of this I thought ok I will give this gym a proper go & sign up for 6 months still paying monthly... Except it wasn't highlighted to me that once I did that I would effectively go from being a member of Legends to being a member having a membership under the Ashbourne Management company. That is not what I signed up for .I didn't sign up for Ashbourne to decide when & how I could cancel my membership, I didn't sign up for Legends gym, not to be able themselves to end my membership at my request due to a slight change in my circumstances.. if they would have done that I would have been back in when my circumstances changed again. All I was under the impression Ashbourne would do was to collect my direct debits for Legends but under the direct debit guarantee I am allowed to decide to not do direct debit if I find that it is no longer appropriate to pay this way. I signed a contract not fully having it explained to me what it all meant. You try standing on tiptoe to put in your details on a form where you've just for crosses to sign & a counter to lean on that is higher than you are! But my membership with Ashbourne doesn't technically start until the 24th/25th February. It says so on the form, irrespective of what date I signed any contract. & yet I have already been chased for payment because yes I have cancelled my direct debit so I can retain control over when I pay & how. The reason being, my circumstances have changed slightly, only 11 days in (to what though? As I am still within my paid month in cash at the gym and my Ashbourne membership hasn't started yet, it says on the form.. membership to start on..), but my membership has changed, not enough to warrant a change of address etc but because my working environment is changing for a while. Legends Gym, who I thought I was a member of their gym not a member of Ashbourne, I am not choosing to train with Ashbourne/lift weights with Ashbourne, said I would need to cancel with Ashbourne not them... Not fair!... But then Ashbourne seem to think my word is good/honest for signing contracts AND accepting my money to be paid to the gym .but. not good enough without 'proof' to cancel a membership that I didn't want with Ashbourne in the first place because I didn't choose them as my gym!

Fantastic experience: I am not easily impressed, but the most important thing in my opinion about a gym is the atmosphere, facilities and the staff, especially when you are starting out. I will be happy to recommend Legends to everyone from novice to athlete as the staff are very well informed and the equipment is top quality and safety to exceed the standards, the best thing is the atmosphere and everyone is welcome and encouragement is everywhere. I don't see why you would go anywhere else, but don't take my word for it, try it out for yourself
