Simply the best!!! The entire team is fantastic, knowledgeable, welcoming. I have fun every single time I train and also get a phenomenal workout. Ive known Bryan the owner for years and followed him wherever hes been. It is a joy to see him put his vision into reality, especially with the team he has built. I look forward to my next session every time and cant wait to see what the future holds for the Leg1on brand.

I have been blown away by the time i have spent at Legion One. In my time there, I have improved all aspects of my physical aptitude. I have grown stronger, faster, quicker, and more flexible. My injuries have gone down and my performance in every sport has gone up. Every trainer knows exactly how to craft a workout specifically designed to help you reach your goals and they are all extremely dedicated. That is not to say, however, that it is strictly business in the training area. At Legion One, I have been able to get in great workouts while also having a great time. All the trainers are extraordinarily friendly and fun to be around. When I step out onto the training floor, I expect not only an hour filled with hard work and lots of sweat, but fun banter and great new dance moves, and I am never disappointed. As I move on to college I know I will deeply miss all the great times and personal improvements I have made in the gym and I look forward to many in the future. Legion One truly is a one of a kind place and I consider myself lucky to train here.

I started training at LEG1ON a few months ago. I’ve experienced several other gyms. I’ve been blown away by the team at LEG1ON. Every team member is so skilled and determined to get results and make you feel comfortable and welcomed. The gym is also kept very clean. I encourage and suggest checking this place out! Game changing fitness in Pittsburgh! This group will not disappoint!

I am obsessed — cannot say enough good things about Leg1on!! The entire team treats you and your workout with the utmost respect and attention. I’ve experienced this first hand with Coach JR, and I’ve seen how attentive and invested the other Coaches are with their clients as well. The Coaches really take the time to listen to you and ensure that you get the most out of your workout. Each and every Coach at Leg1on will go above and beyond to help you reach your goals and take your workout to the next level. They also do an awesome job of motivating you on the days you just aren’t feeling it (we’ve all been there!). Bryan and his team are the real deal. Everyone is so friendly and always makes me feel welcome and comfortable in the gym environment. I love it here! Already looking forward to my next training session!

Shelly keeps me accountable and is a great teacher as a trainer. the team is motivating and it feels more like a club than a business (in a very good way). during my last personal training session i looked over and there were five pros - four trainers and a professional athlete - working out at the same time. and somehow it’s not intimidating, but it is inspiring. if i were designing the perfect gym for getting me to show up and work hard, leg1on would be it. built different is no empty slogan.

As someone who used to work in the fitness industry, I cannot get over what a fantastic job Bryan and his crew have done to create such an overwhelmingly positive experience. Bryan and a few of his staff have been close friends of mine for a few years now, and the vision that they share is clearly present as soon as you cross the threshold. The facility is clean, professional, and always presentable. Not a dumbbell or barbell out of its place. Being a tiny bit of a fitness enthusiast myself, its what I would imagine a gym fit for performance training would look like. The trainers are knowledgeable, have their own unique styles and backgrounds, and train clients with a veracity and care showcasing just how seriously they take seeing their goals come to fruition. If you are an individual seeking to better your overall health and fitness, and possibly learn something new if you happen to be quite a fitness buff already, then Legion is the best place to find training thats personal to you.

I absolutely love training at Leg1on!! Ive been training here for over a year, and I look forward to going to the gym every week. The amazing coaching and instruction that I have received from the trainers has made me not only physically, but also mentally stronger. Because of this, my sports performance has also improved dramatically. I cant thank Leg1on enough for all that they have done!!!

I have gone to many gyms and group fitness classes and have had many coaches/instructors and nothing compares to Bryan and his team at Legion. I have always been into fitness and working out but since starting to come to Leg1on over a year ago I’ve never felt stronger.There is a very welcoming and inclusive vibe and it truly is a gym for all ages, genders and skill levels. The staff strives to deliver experienced and professional service and value you as a client, and it shows.

I have been training at LEG1ON since June, and I cant recommend it enough. I have worked with both Bryan and LJ, and I am so impressed with their expertise, programming, and passion for fitness and athletics. Every session is thoughtfully structured and they both ensure that I am lifting safely and with correct form. Although my collegiate swimming career ended several years ago, training at LEG1ON reminds me of how great it feels to train like an athlete again.

11/10 love this gym and the team. The staff are experts, caring, and fun! The vibes are amazing and the facility is immaculate perfection. Ive trained with them the past year and can feel/see the improvement after thinking I was doomed to injuries and plateauing. Highly recommend!

This gym is like a family! 100% recommend to everyone and anyone. This was my first experience with personal training, I never went to the gym regularly before and was nervous to start, but everyone made me feel right at home. A year later and I am so much stronger than I ever thought possible. So happy to be a part of the Leg1on family!

10/10 recommend to all of my friends and family. The space is always clean, equipment is top notch, and ever trainer is extremely friendly and encouraging. I personally have been training with Coach Maddie - I can’t say enough good things about her. She customizes every workout and pushes me to the next level.

Love our gym! Super clean. Consistently positive vibe. Great coaches. Training professional athletes and seniors (like me at 72) and everyone in between. Diversity welcoming. Special shoutout to Shelly!

In my pursuit of places for strength training, I am so glad that I found and was referred to LEG1ON. Out of all of the places that I checked out, LEG1ON by far was the best! Bryan runs a top notch facility! Everyone Ive met so far is very welcoming, the gym is spotless and they actually care about assisting you in obtaining your goals where as other places were more concerned with you signing up for a monthly membership.

Leg1on has been a staple in my life since its beginning. Bryan and his team have pushed me past any limit I had imposed on myself. I am stronger, fitter, and happier with my body since I started working with JR and Shelly. Do yourself a favor and take a training session, have a nutrition consult, or take group class today.

Having experienced many gyms, this by far has the most to offer. The facility, equipment, and staff are all overly impressive. The coaching that is provided at LEG10N is on an expert quality of training and I highly recommend this gym if you want to take your workouts to the next level.

I can’t say enough great things about this gym! Whether you choose personal training or one of their group classes, you’ll leave knowing you put in the hard work it takes to see changes, both physically and mentally. Each time I leave this gym I feel like a better version of myself. Bryan and all of the coaches work hard to make each session unique and fun. They put a huge emphasis on form and technique which is especially helpful if you’re recovering from an injury or are unsure about trying something new. I would never go anywhere else!

Great place for personal training. Very professional and serious about helping you get in shape, lose weight and nutrition advise. Maddie and Heather are great personal trainers. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for personal training and getting in shape!

This is a world class gym with world class trainers right here in Pittsburgh. The equipments is the best, the facility is absolutely impeccable in terms of maintenance and cleanliness, and the trainers her are legitimate trained professionals that I trust. Ive been lifting and training on my own for 12+ years, and although I knew what I was doing my trainer refined my form, pushed me to do things I wouldnt normally do, and educated me so that I could continue to build my knowledge. All the trainers here are top notch, but I cant recommend Heather enough. Do yourself a favor. Book a session. You cannot put a price on your fitness and health, especially when youre getting trained at this caliber.

Cant say enough good things about LEG1ON. Ive been training with Coach Maddie since February 2021--I came in with the goal of improving stability/preventing injury for running, and Ive taken away so many new skills and a lot more confidence on top of that. Everyone is so kind and inclusive of everyone training there, whether theyre pros or those new to lifting (like me!). As a healthcare worker, I especially appreciate how serious they have been with COVID-related precautions (100% on masks when the local mandate was in effect, sanitizing equipment, etc.) throughout the changes brought by the pandemic. I cant recommend LEG1ON highly enough!

Ive been training at LEG1ON for about a month, and my experience has been great so far. The space is awesome; everything is clean and organized. They have a variety of equipment including countless dumbbells, kettlebells, medballs, power racks, sleds, etc. Most of the equipment is really nice Rogue Fitness gear.Because of the focus on 1:1 training, it never feels crowded and you can comfortably work with your trainer and focus without feeling like youre in someones way or taking too long using a piece of equipment.All of the staff and trainers are extremely friendly and welcoming. They do a great job of adjusting the training to meet your needs and adapt to your abilities. At first glance it may seem like a gym for very fit athletes, but there are people at all different fitness levels training at LEG1ON, and the coaches tailor each workout. Every session so far has been fun, challenging, and unique.

Been training with Shelly for several months now and I could not be happier! She listens to my goals and works with me to achieve them! After finishing physical therapy for an ACL and meniscus tear I still wasn’t anywhere near fully functional, and legion has been the bridge back and then the road beyond! The facility follows excellent Covid precautions, and it’s super clean all the time. Other gyms may bark louder, but I’m pretty sure legion has the better bite.

I’ve really enjoyed training with Maddie! I signed up for 3 months and I’m plan to do another 3 months of PT, if not longer. Have not taken a class yet but will hopefully try those out soon.

As a former whatever, just a bit shy of 40 years on earth, I can say training with Bryan makes me feel less bad about indulging in some of my vices, including, but never ever limited to: copious alcohol consumption, patronizing my local greasy spoon, and my relentless quest for the perfect breakfast sandwich.[insert] eagle, crossed swords

My wife and I have always looked for a place that we felt was a great fit. THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE!!! Very accommodating and the coaches/owners are extremely dedicated. We’ve been training with Coach Shelly for several months and we love it. She genuinely makes a difference and is very passionate. She treats us like family. Coach Bryan is also incredible!! He was gracious enough to work around our schedules and train us while Shelly was on a much deserved vacation! My wife and I have found our place. Top-notch equipment, incredible vibes and great music, ALWAYS!! The exercises are always very creative, fun and challenging in a good way. I enjoy being challenged, because Shelly sees the potential in my wife and I. Her accountability is genuine, and life changing. Lastly, the nutrition knowledge is the best. This is the first time I’ve ever added effective nutrition. Thanks to Shelly, my wife and I can’t get enough of how we see results on a consistent basis, and the healthy foods and recipes we’ve learned to love! I know this is a long review, but I have so many great things to say.

An excellent facility with all of the best equipment for performance training. The space is clean and impressive; the atmosphere is fun. Knowledgeable, friendly, expert trainers. Bryan Blackstone (the owner and my trainer) has pushed me to perform better than ever while helping to eliminate the pain I was previously experiencing. The in-house nutrition is top notch. Living in East Liberty, the location is convenient and easy. I cannot recommend this gym and this crew more.

Took my first class here today- I loved the supportive environment and the energy in general! All of the coaches were super welcoming and checked in with me multiple times, making sure I was performing each movement correctly. I highly recommend if you’re looking for a new gym in the Pittsburgh area—I’ll definitely be back!

My favorite gym in the 412. LEG1ON is the perfect gym for athletes of all kinds to reach their potential. As a collegiate athlete Bryan’s personal training has brought me back from an injury stronger than ever! All of the coaches are so friendly, positive and motivating and you can’t help but have a good time when you step in the doors. Especially during the COVID-19 pandemic LEG1ON’S state of the art facilities paired with their commitment to the health and safety of all of their athletes make me more than comfortable to train in their intimate environment! Highly recommend for anyone in the SHADYSIDE, Sq. hill, point breeze, Highland park, FC area!!

Review №38

I’ve been going to LEG1ON for about a month now, since they offered the week of free classes. I have taken both FORGEU and SOCOMM and I am currently personal training with Shelly 3x weekly.The gym itself is immaculate! They have a lot of space and a great variety of Equipment. It’s very clean and secure. I love that when I go in for my sessions there are limited people and clients and that class sizes are limited and safetly distanced. It’s great to not have the distraction or worry of other free range members when you are focusing on your one on one time.I have loved both the FORGEU and SOCOMM classes more than I anticipated. “I’m not a class person” but the format of both classes is great. FORGEU feels more like a fun but serious kick butt group session where each person is encouraging one another and the energy is fantastic. SOCOMM is a tough class but feels great leaving and are seriously wiped out (and happy for it)!And finally, Shelly is the best. I have struggled with trying new workouts and new things for quite a while which lead me down the path of being a big old couch potato. Shelly is truly awesome at what she does. She’s very encouraging and pushes you to believe in yourself even when you think you just can’t do it. She has some sneaky good tricks up her sleeve that will make you burn and her training sessions are always a challenge but never leave me feeling discouraged or frustrated. I am very impressed by her ability to manage injuries/insecurities and empower me to feel my best and strongest self. You can do hard things!!I haven’t had the opportunity to work with any of the other trainers one on one but I have been there at the same time as some other sessions and can genuinely say each and every coach at LEG1ON is knowledgeable and genuine and I would trust any of them! It’s a genuinely encouraging, safe and exciting atmosphere and I am so glad to be a part of it! I highly recommend checking it out!
