~6 months in with Daniel from Lifting Legacy and it has easily become one of the best decisions I've made for myself. A lot of effort is spent teaching the hows and whys of the various exercises/machines and it shows in the results, can't recommend them enough!

Well, several months later, I finally met Daniel and Alexi and immediately realized the story in my head was wrong. If you are looking for a small gym with owners on-site -where they've cultivated a great community that cares about your health - give them a try. I've been a member for several months now and work with the amazing Jacob as a trainer. PS Jacob also offers dance lessons, but don't tell him I told you that.
Maintenance: Well-kept

Hi Eric,
Thank you for the review and recommendation! We keep the gym pretty simple: good equipment, a solid setup, and a place where people can come in and train. The community that has grown around it makes it even better!

Very nice gym. Trainers are professional and friendly. Equipments are well maintained and enough for everyone to use. I really learned and improved during my training sessions and strongly recommend!
a year in, two hours a week has turned out to be one of the best investments i’ve made in myself.
i’m stronger all around, but i’m especially happy with the lower-body training Daniel tailored for me. i used to have all sorts of knee and ankle issues, and now i’m able to stay on the basketball court and keep up with young legs in their twenties.
it sounds counterintuitive, but working out regularly has actually given me more energy. i get more done at work, i’m healthier, and most importantly, i have more energy to spend with my family and my one-year-old daughter.
the trainers here don’t mess around. they push you physically and mentally, and if you put in the work, you’ll see results.
if you’re reading these reviews and still can’t decide, just come in and give it a shot. sometimes taking action is better than finding another reason to wait. maybe a year from now, you’ll be the one writing this review.

Hi Chun-Che,
This is amazing! We love hearing how much your training has carried over into life outside of the gym, from staying on the basketball court to having more energy for your family. Thank you for trusting Daniel and his training this past year. Here’s to many more years of staying strong and active!

Trained with Jacob for two months and would highly recommend him. He's knowledgeable, motivating, and helped me make noticeable progress in both strength and physique. Thanks to his guidance, I was able to reach a 1.5x bodyweight deadlift and see real results.

Hi Shashank,
It’s great to hear that Jacob’s coaching helped you make meaningful progress in both strength and physique. Hitting a 1.5x bodyweight deadlift in just two months is an impressive achievement! Keep up the good work with your training!
