Because of Legacy, I’ve learned to love lifting again and be brave enough to walk in a gym without being intimidated. I can’t thank Matt enough for helping me become stronger than I once was mentally and physically. 10/10 recommend if anyone wants to get into lifting or become stronger! Matt is your guy!

Excellent powerlifting gym in Wilmington.Dropped in for a couple workouts while visiting family and had a great experience.Matt and Tom were very welcoming. The gym is clean, temperature controlled, and has high quality equipment in great condition. The day pass was 20$ and well worth it; I’ll definitely come back the next time I’m in town.

Legacy isn’t just a gym: it’s a culture.Prior to joining, I had never weight-lifted. I was intimidated and I considered reaching out for MONTHS before I finally did. When I went for consultation, I immediately found a place that is way more than a gym.In the short time I’ve been working with Matt, I’ve found myself getting stronger, feeling more confident, and even sleeping better. I have gained muscle - including adding 1.5 inches to glutes, which we all know is every woman’s dream. Matt tailors workouts to your goals, and is supportive and encouraging while holding you accountable. He has been patient with me as a newbie, explains things in a way that makes sense while still pushing me.Although I don’t personally train with Tom, he is always down to cheer a PR or throw support my way and is truly complementary to Matt. You’ll find that enthusiasm and support from the other clients you’ll cross paths with inside as well. The encouragement and the positive, fun attitudes you’ll encounter once you step inside are unmatched. The space itself is clean and the banging music is reason enough to keep going. If you’ve been considering joining Legacy, do yourself a favor and stop waiting.

I can not say enough great things about Legacy! Prior to my experience at legacy, I wanted to get into lifting but had no clue where to start and was very intimidated. I had gym anxiety and felt uncomfortable in gyms. I would look up workouts online but was never sure how my form was or if I was doing it right which led me to seek out help. I luckily found legacy! I worked with Tom multiple times a week learning how to properly exercise, good form and habits and cues to remember when exercising to prevent injury. Tom is a great teacher, explaining which muscle each workout is hitting and noting how to feel if you’re doing it right vs doing it wrong. Not only did I learn so much and get amazing workouts in but Tom and the whole “family” at legacy helped build up my confidence when it comes to the gym and exercising so that I no longer feel intimated by it. Everyone in the gym, including the other trainer Matt and fellow clients, has amazing energy and goes out of their way to hype you up and give you that extra confidence boost no matter if you’re trying to just finish out a hard set on a rough day or you’re hitting a new PR. They would make my progress feel important and cheer me on lifting 40 pounds the same as they would for the man next to me lifting 400 pounds. Tom would be just as excited about my progress and PR’s for me as I was for myself. I made great physical progress and hit multiple of my strength goals in the few months that I was training at Legacy. I unfortunately had to leave the gym as I moved out of state but when I am the gym by myself now I still use cues in my head that Tom instilled in me while I worked with him at legacy. I absolutely love this gym and will be returning when I return to the Wilmington area!

After 6 weeks at Legacy Strength I can already see results. I’ve lost 2 1/2 inches off my waist, shredded 5% of body fat and lost 7 lbs! Matt and Tom make it easy to follow a work out routine through their guidance during our work outs but also on our days away from their gym. Using the “Fitness App” that is custom tailored to my goals with a combination of the app “My Fitness Pal” days away from training sessions are easy to log and track. I would highly recommend setting your fitness goals with the team at Legacy Strength. Fun environment, knowledgeable staff, and the extra push I need to reach my fitness goal!

I have been training with Matt for about 2 months now, and I really couldn't be happier with the experience and my progress. Finding the motivation to get into and stick to a fitness routine has been tough for me, and the personal attention has been well worth it. I am enjoying working out more than ever, and I look forward to seeing my progress on the app each time I complete a workout. Both Tom and Matt are personable and make their clients feel at home in the gym no matter their skill level.
