Fantastic experience: Mew owners have changed the name to Iconix. Brilliant gym, loads of machines as well as boxing facilities. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic dance studio, great space and large mirror to see how your dancing! Gym is friendly and welcoming and off the main road, so not too busy. Highly recommend belly dancing lessons
Fantastic experience: Really good gym full of amazing machines would recommend to vist
Fantastic experience: Very good gym, plenty of parking
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym you can really tell everyone is there purely to workout and get them gains, for example people will even bring in their meal prep (chicken + rice) and eat in next to their lockers in between training breaks! Which shows they dedicate a lot of time to that gym since most people spend a good few hours in there training to be bullet proof !
Positive experience: Great gym nice friendly people
Positive experience: Zajebista silka
Negative experience: Rubbish service - too lazy to answer the phone. All I want to know is if they take weekly membership or per session, but they can't even be bothered to put the information on their website! Won't be bothering ps they took the phone off the hook because they can't be bothered to answer it!!! That's no way to run a business....
Fantastic experience: Great gym and all the equipment is good
Fantastic experience: Top car wash in Kirkby
Fantastic experience: Proper gym
Fantastic experience: Very good clean well equipped and friendly people
Positive experience: Ok Gym that’s lost it’s charm. Cons: - Gym timings, not suitable for working individuals, it’s uncommon to have a ‘bodybuilding’ gym to open at 8am. It should be 6am for those hardcore enthusiasts or 7am to fit in a workout before work. - Gym needs a refurbishment and feels like it’s been forgotten about. - Black mold is rife on the ceilings which can cause respiratory issues and airborne bacteria. - Poor ventilation - Cardio machines are abysmal and need TLC. - Boxing section needs a good clean and lacks ancillary equipment. - Old and chipped weight plates including Matts. Pros: - Decent price - Excellent staff members - Gym users are friendly - Free Car Park
Fantastic experience: Good
Fantastic experience: Amazing gym been coming here for 2 years and the experience is unbelievable, the staff are friendly and the gym environment is so welcoming. If anyone is looking for a gym go to legends!!!!!
Fantastic experience: I originally looked for a gym that could cater to my sons boxing needs and somewhere I could weight train also. I was told about Legends so I checked it out ... I haven't been anywhere else since joining nearly two years ago! Legends Gym is the prefect place to train hard, meet great people and get the physical gains you've always wanted in a friendly environment. For me going to the gym isn't just about getting a pump, it's also an extension of my social life, and having a laugh and a chat with all the amazing lads that work there after a mentally draining day on a building site is always refreshing.
Fantastic experience: One of my favourite gyms in Nottingham you can't beat the positive enthusiasm that you feel as soon as you enter the door, the staff and the members make you feel like you belong to one big Legends family with all ages being welcomed and embraced. Recommend to anyone looking to join 5/5!!!
Fantastic experience: I've been training at the for a few years excellent customer service by usman and rest of the team.. tbh the music is brilliant no one ever complained...
Fantastic experience: WHAT A GYM! Usman personally took his time to show me around the gym. He made sure I was familiar with all the equipment before letting me fly on my own. Very professional and welcoming. A very good open place to train. Got everything to keep you fit and grow if that's your thing.
Fantastic experience: Very good gym, I come here to work out and do boxing. This is a very family orientated gym and the staff are very friendly.
Fantastic experience: Bang on service
Negative experience: Went to have a look around the gym to sign up, went up the stairs and the music was blasting out with the offensive 'N' word in the lyrics. I spoke to a guy about the music he had nothing to say so I made my feet do the talking and walked back out. Definitely don't expect and want to hear that in any public premises. Shame on you legends!!
Fantastic experience: Excellent Gym, A hidden gem in Nottingham very friendly and accommodating staff. My son comes here during the weekends to do boxing and he loves it!!!. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a proper workout 5/5.

Fantastic experience: Got some great equipment, gym users are often happy to help if you aren't doing something right. Great boxing/mma equipment including a ring for each. Great gym for only £20 a month
Positive experience: Great place to train and the prices aren't too bad. You can even do boxing training but you'll have to pay extra.
Fantastic experience: Top place in Nottingham for training, accommodates all aspects, top facilities have been using them for over 8 years, they are forever upgrading equipment and expanding seems to get new equipment or upgrades to existing equipment all the time, everybody is very friendly, there really is no bad vibes like many other gyms in the area. Would 100 percent recommend to anyone who is serious about training. Prices are good with no contract and no joining fee pay as you go. The best gym in the area for sure.

Fantastic experience: My son goes boxing there his name is Ibby and he loves boxing with Lennex the trainer
Positive experience: Not the same same as any other gym since it includes a lot more equipment than the other other ones I've been to
Positive experience: I trained in Legends twice during a weekend away in Nottingham. It's a good gym, a lot of varied equipment, pretty clean and tidy. Although it's obviously geared towards bodybuilders and boxers I managed a good free weights strength session. I've knocked a star off because there are no plates under 5kg. That means you can only increase barbell lifts in 10kg increments, and as far as I'm concerned that's both dangerous and disheartening. I checked at the counter because I was sure there'd be something smaller somewhere, and he pretty much laughed at the suggestion. I had to drop the weight on my deadlifts from what I'd planned because I needed both 2.5kg and 1.25kg weights to do my planned weight which was pretty annoying. Better than spannering my back by going up in weight too fast though. I found it extra perplexing because loads of the machines are plate loaded, but maybe I'm just weird. Still, such a big and well equipped gym could surely spare a bit of cash for some small plates. Presumably they don't get many power/Oly lifters in.
Fantastic experience: Clean place, very friendly staff. 5/5
Positive experience: This is a frog that needs a kiss to turn into a prince. I love this place. A great place to train with classic but good equipment. if you are expecting luxury, a warm gym or even a clean place then think again. this is vintage but good. People training here a mainly serious. they respect each other and get on with their own thing. which is what makes legends a perfect place to train. if your easily offended or particular then this isn't the place for you. But for bespoke equipment then it's great. Don't be put off by the appearance. £4 for a drop in session is awesome.
Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, reasonable prices All the equipment you'd expect from a body building gym.
Fantastic experience: Best gym in Nottingham
Fantastic experience: Good place for Boxing and weight training Some of the Resistance machines have got bolts and screws to adjust weights . The best thing is to take bolts from other machines There is no heating in the gym so the best thing is to workout hard. The gym is currently undergoing renovation and there are some adjustments to machines being undertaken. The owner is very approachable and respectfully caters for the needs of the gym members. The £20 per month is good value for money as the opening hours are until midnight on weekdays and the gym has also longer opening hours on weekends You can pay online or at the desk and you will be asked for a picture to be taken of yourself Finally you will get a personalised pin to get through the entrance There are some lockers and also shower facilities There are also many classes offered here and it's best to check out their website for more info

Negative experience: Disappointed by a staff member. A chose this gym because of my son who wanted to have good leg workout equipment which is no doubt in abundance in here. I do pay as you sessions in this gym. The first two experiences were great . Great staff members. Today was my third visit to the gym but unfortunately I have to say that I am disappointed by the impolite and rude attitude of the reception guy at around 2pm today. I understand that that the rates have changed and he could not let us go in without the right amount but the way he told me that “it’s not my fault that the rates have changed” was pretty offensive. I still came back after getting the right amount from a cash point as the gym does not have card machine. But I will definitely look for another gym where at least you have decent staff to assist you. I have not seen such an attitude in public sector what to talk about a paying sector. I would wish the owners take notice of this and give the guy some public dealing sessions.
Negative experience: Some equipments are not in good conditions..
Positive experience: No nonsense gym - very good facilities.
Fantastic experience: Great gym, great staff, friendly people.

Fantastic experience: A great gym! Good weights, clean and tidy gym. Good atmosphere and friendly attitude. Do your work out kinda of a gym. Spacious and affordable .
Positive experience: Would have liked more space for squats, deadlifts and overhead press. Not enough barbells in the gym.
Fantastic experience: Bardzo profesjonalna siłownia. Więcej siłowni niż fitnessu
Fantastic experience: There are so many gyms springing up in Nottingham that cater for all types of pockets. The high end gyms with foolish prices and lacks soul. To those gyms that just have a air of macho b......!! to them. I am proud to say I train at a gym that as a fantastic atmosphere, very knowledgeable instructors and a superb equipment range to rival any other gym. With a large floor space the layout as been considered and thought through. Incorporating a boxing ring, Legends Gymnasium offers so much more, and the price is competitive to. so that you wont bust a gut to pay to train. Love life get fit at Legends!!
