The Best Personal Training in London

Our clients train between 6am-8pm Monday-Friday – then 8am-3pm Saturdays. We’re closed on Sundays. If there’s a specific time slot you’d like, we’ll do our very best to accommodate you.

Yes. Our central London facilities and elite personal trainer qualifications make us an excellent choice if you’re looking to regain mobility and fitness after an injury.

In fact, many of our fitness coaches have completed specific fitness industry injury rehab qualifications, as well as elite level personal trainer courses. We can put together a specialist rehabilitation program and training methods that are based on your specific injury and need.

We also have a partner business in our Soho location. They have specialist physiotherapists, massage therapists, and a range of injury rehab resources. We can work hand-in-hand too – complementing hands-on rehab therapy with gym-based sessions that suit your training style.

There are some ‘charge-by-the-hour’ personal training services that’ll happily tell you to come everyday – but this most definitely isn’t the case at Fitness Lab.

How often you should workout depends on a lot of factors. In fact, we’ve covered it in detail in our blog: How Much Exercise Should I Do Each Day to Lose Weight? The good news is – whatever your level of fitness, hitting the gym hard every day probably isn’t the best way forward.

Depending on your personal circumstances, working-out 2-3 times a week is usually a good place to aim for. Beyond that, our expert personal trainers will help you understand other lifestyle, fitness, rest, and nutrition factors for your week that will help you towards your goal. Building a realistic and achievable new attitude towards exercise is ALWAYS better than hitting the gym hard for a few weeks and then finding yourself injured or lacking motivation.

Yes, almost certainly! Losing weight – or specifically, losing fat – is a tricky thing to get exactly right. You might not realise it – but getting fat loss just right is a careful balance of exercise, nutrition, and recovery. If any one of these things isn’t quite right (they’re easy to lose track of!) then you’ll find yourself struggling to get in the shape you want.

At Fitness Lab, we are experts in all these areas – so we’ll be able to talk to you about the lifestyle you need to be in the right shape. It’s perfectly achievable – but always much easier with an expert on your side!

You’re welcome to read more about the kind of things we’ll help with in our blog: Why Am I Not Losing Weight?

We have studios in Mayfair,  Soho and Fitzrovia. As a Fitness Lab client, you are free to use either location and our team work closely to make sure your goals, progress and exercise routine are clearly communicated so you get a seamless experience.

Absolutely. We realise guidelines and rules have changed since the Covid-19 pandemic – but we still do everything we can to make sure our studios are safe places to be.

As well as our cleanliness and hygiene being second-to-none, we encourage our team to keep check of any symptoms that might suggest they’re unwell. You’ll never be working with a personal trainer who is ill.

Our space is also a huge factor in keeping everyone safe. You’ll never be working out close to anyone else – so you can be 100% confident that all aspects of your well-being are in good hands.

Of course. We can work towards the exact goal you’ve got in mind – whether that’s to lose weight, tone up, or build your strength. Our sports science and body composition knowledge means we can put together personal training sessions and online programming that will move the weight and keep it off.

Yes. Every station in our pod-based system has a full range of bespoke gym machinery and free weights. Whatever level of strength you have or want to achieve, our boutique training facility can comfortably accommodate your needs.

It’s easy to take a look at social media and get the impression that everyone’s got motivation to spare – but that’s really not the case. Motivation is difficult to find – especially at the start of your fitness journey.

The good news is, personal training can give you the nudge you need when you feel like skipping your workout. It’s not all about patting you on the back and cheering you on though – we work with principles and ideas that are proven to help you build habits that stick.

If you’d like to learn more about how we knowledge, goals, measurements and atmosphere to inspire motivation, check out our blog: How Can a Personal Trainer Help Your Motivation?

Absolutely. Everyone has to start somewhere, and we always strive to make training programme sessions fun and confidence-building. You’ll be amazed at how quickly weight loss and muscle gain start to change the way you feel.

What’s more, we celebrate successes with people of all fitness levels. We’re not one of those “no pain, no gain!” studios – instead, we focus on the little wins; since every session is a step closer to your goal.

You probably already know body transformations don’t happen overnight – but you’ll be surprised how quickly you’ll start to see changes. With the help of fitness instructors or a good personal trainer and a focused workout programme, most people will take huge steps towards their goals in as little as 6-8 weeks.
