About Us

At Legends Gym, we’ve built more than a place to work out—we’ve built a home for growth, grit, and genuine connection.

Who We Are

Owners Peter Streit and Derek Larkin set out to create more than just another gym—they wanted to build a legacy in the heart of downtown St. Petersburg. Their vision was simple: combine old-school training principles with modern performance technology and upscale amenities, all within an atmosphere that feels like home.

At Legends Gym, every member is part of the family. Whether you’re a first-time lifter or a seasoned athlete, our mission is to provide a welcoming environment where everyone feels empowered to focus on their health, strength, and overall quality of life.
What sets Legends apart is the energy you feel the moment you walk through the doors—a perfect blend of passion, grit, and community. It’s a place where motivation thrives, friendships are formed, and personal goals are achieved.

With years of combined fitness experience, Peter and Derek have poured their knowledge into every detail—from the gym’s thoughtful layout and premium equipment selection to the diverse training spaces and supportive staff. Legends Gym stands as a true cornerstone of the local fitness community, representing dedication, authenticity, and a shared love for the grind.

Welcome to Legends Gym—where commitment meets community, and every workout builds something greater.
