10/10 would come back! I don’t live in Albuquerque, but I came with an athlete to coach her for the NAO2 2021. We needed a place to train prior to the meet and Legion Iron provided an incredible training environment, with great atmosphere, quality equipment, and tremendous hospitality. I would 100% recommend this facility to anyone looking for a great place to train!

This gym and the people here are among the best I’ve known in my years of lifting. There is an essence of community which welcomes and encourages people of all walks of life and training backgrounds to come train here. If you’re a fan of lifting heavy weights and making great friends, I implore you to check this place out at your nearest convenience. You won’t regret it!

This is by far the best gym in town! Best equipment, atmosphere, and hours... it never closes! You can choose your own music and there are basically no rules besides dont break equipment or sneak in your friends! And the owner Garrett is very handsome.

I’ve been to several gyms in Albuquerque and Los lunas and this is by far the best one I’ve been to. Everyone is genuine and nice. I love the gym atmosphere and everyone is supportive! I have seen the most improvement at legion. If you have your doubts about it I encourage you try it out. This gym is for people who are genuinely focused on improvement and becoming the best version of themselves. This is more than a gym it’s a second home and a family.

I love this Gym.. I suffered a heart attack a few years ago and everybody was very supportive for me to get back into the lifting. Because of this gym I was able to bounce back and get stronger faily quickly. This gym is more than a gym because it provides a family and a support system. Everybody that comes in to this gym comes in to work, so if your not willing to put in the sweat, blood, and tears this Gym is not for you. In this gym we are all equal and we let the iron separate the boys from the men. This Gym is not for the weak minded..

I joined this gym about a year ago when I was trying to lose weight. The owner was more than kind and very supportive. He has created an environment that makes his members feel like family. I could not recommend this gym more to anyone who is looking to make the most out of their fitness goals! Since I’ve joined, I’ve lost over 101lbs, had constant support from Garret and other members, and have made life long friends along the way. I refuse to go to another gym now.

This has been the best gym I’ve been to in Albuquerque by far! This gym attracts great people, great music, and huge support for the fitness industry. Coming to this gym has been a benefit for my fitness goals and I couldn’t do it without Legion Iron and the people there!

Review №12

I built this gym with the intention of having the best equipment and atmosphere with minimal rules. It never closes and i let people do their own thing. I dont pressure personal training like most gyms and dont have sign up fees or contracts. At $35/month for student I think its a lot for what you pay. We have had some trouble in the past with the cancellation policy but i have worked to fix that and now cancelling is just as simple as sending an e-mail and we take care of it that day. I apologize for anyone who had trouble with cancelling in the past. We are working our best to provide refunds to anyone whos cancellation didnt process in time. Thank you to everyone at Legion Iron for making it the community that it is.

Never been more satisfied with the equipment as it is some of the best quality powerlifting equipment out there. This is the best powerlifting gym in the state in my opinion. Management is professional and memberships are very affordable. I would recommend this gym to anyone looking to increase their fitness levels.

Legion Iron is without a doubt the best gym I’ve been to in recent memory. No commercial bs, no shady management, nothing.It’s the perfect environment for those who want to become the best version of themselves, regardless of what stage of life they’re at. I’ve seen everyone from influencers, bodybuilders, powerlifters, and those who just want to lose weight come to this gym and be welcomed with open arms. Garret has created a second home for anyone who wants to embrace it, and I couldn’t be more thankful.Give it a shot!

Dirty gym, no masks and cardio room lacking. Really doesnt stand out to be paying 40-50 just go to Iron Soul or even Defined fitness. Tried canceling my membership multiple times. The gym equipment is really the only thing thats great about this place. Needs better sanitary stations even before Covid seems it wasnt implemented to be a priority.

Review №23

I liked the gym while I went there, but once I moved out of state I did everything they told me and more to cancel my membership (submitted a paper cancellation sheet a month before I needed to cancel my membership and called to confirm they received it, called again to cancel, AND ALSO emailed them) I’m currently still getting billed for my membership there and disputing the transaction every month. Absolutely ridiculous.

I’ve been going to Legion since it opened, and I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else! If you’re sick of high priced gyms and sick of waiting to use a squat rack then you should check Legion Iron out. Oh and they’re not gonna shame you for dropping the bar when deadlifting (cuz duh weights are heavy and they make a sound when dropping).One of the most important things, is it’s female friendly. As a female, I don’t feel gawked at when I work out there which is refreshing. Feel free to do some hip thrusts or whatever, and no one is going to look at you weird.All in all it’s a good, affordable gym for all levels. If you’re a beginner it’s a really great place to learn weightlifting/powerlifting because most people there do it and are willing to help!

Review №35

Incompetence bordering on theft.This gym has some nice equipment and good prices, but its nearly IMPOSSIBLE to cancel a membership. They make you jump through hoops (including coming in person to fill out and sign a form) to submit a cancellation request. After that? THEY KEEP BILLING YOU. I called 3 times and finally had to pretend to be a new customer to get them to answer me and stop the recurring fees.If you sign up, be prepared to pay a monthly membership for the rest of your life

Legion Iron is a really big facility with a really great atmosphere. I found refuge there after going to different CrossFit gyms, and I prefer it to other lifting gyms Ive been to. Plus being able to come in whenever I want is one of the best parts.

Review №42

The owner made up a story about a “cancelation policy” for this supposedly no-contract gym. They will try to make you pay for an extra month when you want to leave. You do not have to pay this because you did not sign a contract and this policy is not disclosed anywhere. Dispute these charges on your credit card and you will get a full refund.They just do not understand how a month to month no-contract gym works. Do not expect to simply pay for a month and get to use the gym for a month with no strings attached.

This is definitely not a commercial gym, this is a home for people who make lifting a passion. Theres no top 20 playing on the speakers, no lunk alarms, and no closing time. The people are great the equipment is in great condition by solid brands. Ill be a member for as long as Im in abq

Review №44

Best equipment and atmosphere I’ve ever had the chance to train in. Owners are super knowledgeable and you can tell they are passionate about what they are doing. Unfortunately I am from out of town, and just stopped in to train while away for business. I’ve been lifting for 7 years and would give anything for this to be my gym in my hometown. If you’re a local, and not training here, you’re wasting your money and time.

Legion iron is not a facility with weights; rather, it is a community. The owners, Garrett and Simon, have separated themselves from others in the industry by their mentality and ambitions. These two have developed a welcoming culture at legion iron and I recommend anyone, near or far, to check this place out.

Not your typical box/chain gym; my hands-down go-to for lifting. Laid-back vibe, 24/7 hours of operation, tons of racks and platforms, more kettlebells than you can count, all around possibly the best gym in ABQ. Fantastic prices and great staff.

Greatest gym in this Hemisphere. The equipment is state of the art and so many barbells you could smelt them into another legion iron. The owners are demigods who bless you with superhuman strength as you walk through their doors. Studies show that testosterone production goes up approximately 23-28% during your time spent in this gym. Planet fitness was forced to shut down next door because of the snowflakes being scared of real lifters passing by plummeting their memberships. Women have been shown to produce worldclass athletes as children after having sex when having gone to this gym. Would reccomend

Legion Iron is the gym Albuquerque has been missing for so long. A place where anyone, literally anyone, can go to train in any way they want, without judgement, but with the support to get you to your goals. Garrett and Simon really have outdone themselves with this gym. Bodybuilder, Powerlifters, Crossfit Athletes, and even the average Joe can make a home here. Come find your nee family. We are Legion.

I tried this gym wheb travelling through and was extremely impressed. This is an extremely good gym with specialty bars. However you train, whether it is powerlifting, weightlifting, bodybuilding or Crossfit, you will be able to do it at this gym. There are multiple platforms for deadlifting and also cages for squatting and benching. Great atmosphere as the owners are actually strong and love training. This gym lives up to all of these reviews. It is also an excellent price for what you get. I only wish i lived there! If you also have the urge to bust a nut in the gym then thats also fine as Garrett probably has already done so.

I visited this gym as I was traveling through New Mexico to Arizona. I received a personal tour of the facilities by the gym owner himself. This gym has private bathroom facilities, a free weight area, custom decor, custom squat racks, deadlift platforms, fan cooling system, and more! All the bars are new and come with lock grips so you dont need your own. The look of the gym alone gives it a badass vibe. If you are looking for a powerlifting gym in Albuquerque say check Legion Iron out first.P.S. They have Monster Energy drinks here too!

Great facility! They have any type of fitness training you need, be that of bodybuilding, powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, or CrossFit. The owners are amazing and have great knowledge in fitness, especially powerlifting. Everyone here is very welcoming. Unlike a couple other local gyms here in Alberquque. I’ve been to a local gym here and have been made fun/criticizes for wearing compression tights. For example, questioning my sexuallity in a very aggressive manner.Here at Legion Iron, there is none of that negative attitude, only positive and supportive members. Please visit this gym if you get the chance! I believe the day passes are $20 and they have deals for students and such.
