THE LONG-TERM PARTNER FOR CANADIAN FITNESS FACILITIES

Legacy Fitness Products has a foundation built on over 30 years of fitness experience. As fitness professionals, we understand what a facility needs and why, how the equipment works, and how it’s maintained, in traditional gyms and less conventional spaces alike.

Our Story

For Vael Lindsey, Founder and President of Legacy Fitness Products, fitness is essential to everyday life.

Vael began in the industry as a trainer, then went on to manage a retail fitness chain. He later moved into commercial fitness sales, working with high-use, high-demand facilities including colleges, universities, municipalities, and corporations.

Vael would be the first to tell you that he’s also a proud father of four. Fitness quickly became second nature to each of them, with three working at Legacy alongside their uncle.

That is where the name comes from. Legacy is a belief passed down, and a company built to carry it forward. It extends to everyone on our team, who share it as family, and it shapes how we care for every facility and every client.

Fitness facilities for wherever life happens.

Across every sector, we guide each project from the very first floor plan to long after opening. Explore the industries we serve.

“We are very proud of our new LEED Gold Certified corporate office. We are equally proud of the job done and our relationship with Legacy Fitness Products.”

Patty Winer – Corporate Fitness Leader Farm Mutual Reinsurance Plan

“As an exercise science educator for over three decades, if there is something that I value highly it is the ability to be truly client-centered. It is an attribute that I stress with my undergraduates but, as a consumer, I value this in the other professionals in our fitness industry. I have known Vael for over 10 years and have turned to him many times for his advice, his knowledge, and his honesty. Often knowing there was not a sale, Vael would continue to work with me in good faith and good will. He knows his products, stands behind them but more than anything, he takes the time to understand your needs.”

John Griffin - MSc., Professor Fitness & Lifestyle Management Program George Brown College, Toronto

Legacy Fitness Products’ understanding of our needs allowed for an unprecidented level of comfort in the completion of our new Athletic Complex. An A+ from conception to completion.”

Paul Paradiso – Headmaster St. Thomas of Villanova College

“I am extremely impressed with the service and advice provided by Vael Lindsey and Legacy Fitness. When it came time look for new acquisitions for our corporate fitness centre, I realized that there are many potential suppliers, however, few offered the quality and personalized service of Legacy. What made Legacy Fitness standout from other suppliers was attention to detail, professional assessment of our needs, and making recommendations based on years of experience. Not only did Legacy provide great product, but the advice and service exceeded my expectations. I am happy to add that our members continue to express their delight with the new Cybex equipment, and it continues to serve us problem free.”

Paul de Swart - President, Fitness Centre Bank of Canada

“I have worked with Vael Lindsey over the past ten years. Vael is an expert in his field. He is professional, customer focused and knowledgeable. His fitness equipment recommendations, computerized floor plans and after sales support were most appreciated by our clients and facility design teams.”

Sue Pridham - President Tri Fit Inc

“Old school customer service with a genuine commitment to and interest in my business. It was a pleasure working with Legacy Fitness Products.”

Peter Byers – Owner Maxximum Fitness

“I have done business with Vael Lindsey for over 20 years. He has never failed to deliver on anything we have agreed upon. That is a rare commodity. You’re in good hands when you are dealing with Vael and his business.”
