Legends Gym

Legends Gym is an iconic and renowned fitness facility located in Bishopsworth, Bristol. With a rich history and reputation for being an “old school” gym, Legends Gym is the place where legends are made. This gym has recently come under new ownership by Seb Dymond, who is dedicated to providing an exceptional fitness experience for all gym-goers.

One of the biggest highlights of Legends Gym is its state-of-the-art equipment. They have recently added new additions to their collection, including a brand new Pec Deck, a Plate loaded Lat pull over, and a Buffalo Squat Bar. These additions cater to all types of fitness goals, whether it is bodybuilding, strongman training, or general fitness. Legends Gym aims to provide top-of-the-line equipment that meets the highest specifications.

They achieve this by partnering with Watsons gym equipment, a local factory that builds custom machines from scratch.

One of the standout features of Legends Gym is its collection of old school dumbbells. Gym-goers have the unique opportunity to press heavy 90 kg dumbbells, making it a haven for serious lifters. These dumbbells are built in the traditional solid iron way, harking back to the golden age of lifting. Additionally, the gym offers a wide range of weights ranging from 1 kg to 90 kg, ensuring that individuals of all fitness levels can find their ideal training intensity.

Legends Gym is also equipped with Eleiko calibrated plates, which are built and coloured in accordance with the Global Powerlifting Alliance and International Powerlifting Federation standards. These plates range from 500 grammes to 25 kilogrammes, and the availability of fractional plates allows for incremental improvements in powerlifting programmes.

For individuals who focus on Olympic lifting, Legends Gym offers solid rubber Bison Olympic Bumper Plates. These plates are incredibly durable, ensuring that the weights and floors remain undamaged even during heavy lifts or drops.

Despite its focus on weight training, Legends Gym also understands the importance of cardiovascular fitness. As such, they have a dedicated area for cardio training, equipped with spin bikes, cross trainers, Stair Masters, and treadmills.

For individuals interested in strongman and powerlifting, Legends Gym provides a variety of specialised equipment. They have a range of bars, platforms, benches, cages, and strongman equipment such as stones, yokes, farmers' walk implements, sleds, prowlers, and logs. This comprehensive equipment selection caters to all aspects of strongman and powerlifting training.

Legends Gym offers flexible membership options, with a “pay as you train” approach. They do not believe in locking their members into long-term contracts and offer convenient payment options such as direct debit and card machines. The membership options include per-session fees, monthly fees, a 10 session card, and annual fees.
