'Old School' Weightlifting Gym in Bishopsworth

Can you imagine Arnold Schwarzenegger toning his traps in a leisure centre? Or Frank Zane working out in a small room next to the local pool? Doesn’t quite work does it. Luckily the folks at Legends Gym have contrived to create a proper ‘old school’ gym, akin to where the iconic bodybuilders of ‘70s would have worked out.

The black and yellow colour scheme at Legends Bristol

The halls of Legends Gym situated on The Parade in Bishopsworth, Bristol, house a wealth of state-of-the-art, locally-built machinery which are suited to bodybuilding, strongman and fitness. Decked out in the stylishly simple black and yellow, all of the equipment gives credence to the feeling that the gym has been hallowed by many of the athletic legends from which its name is taken.

 

Specifically geared towards weightlifting, Legends stock a strong selection of Bison Olympic Bumper Plates and calibrated plates made in accordance with the Global Powerlifting Alliance and International Powerlifting Federation. As well as these, the gym boasts a brand new Texas deadlifting bar and squat bar, to give the best possible platform from which to pursue each discipline.

 

The more fitness-centric gym-goers are catered to as well: Legends is decked out with a top of the range bank of treadmills, rowing machines and cross-trainers.
