Private 1-1 Personal Training for Strength
The Best Strength Training Personal Trainer Sessions in London
There’s more to strength training than just pushing for a bigger one-rep max. At Fitness Lab, our expert coaches understand the perfect balance of resistance training, nutrition, and rest that’s required – so we’ll help you become stronger than you ever thought possible.
Here, you’ll work out in your own private studio space with dedicated focus from your coach. We’ll help achieve gains with a fraction of the time commitment you’d need elsewhere.
As is always the case with Fitness Lab, you’re guaranteed a completely bespoke-to-you experience, world-class 1-1 coaching in impeccable private studio space, immaculate changing areas, and no membership fees – ever.
Training That’s Built Around You and Your Goals
At Fitness Lab, we’ll help you build strength from a rock-solid foundation. Every session with your dedicated strength and conditioning coach will be a meaningful step towards muscle building and an increase in functional strength – without compromising your health.
Starting with your consultation, we’ll look at every element that plays a part in making you stronger. What does a day look like for you? Do we need to work on any posture correction techniques? Do we need to look at any nutrition or sleep adjustments for a healthier lifestyle? Rest assured, if you want to get stronger, there’s no better team to have on your side.
Private Pod Space
Strength training at Fitness Lab isn’t the same as working with a personal trainer in a public gym. Here, you have a private space that’s exclusively yours while you work out.
Our private pod space becomes your very own private strength training gym, with everything you need for unmatched strength workouts – from your own weights and conditioning equipment right through to cutting-edge body composition scales that offer an incredible look at how your body is developing and how your muscle mass is growing.
A Truly Personalised Strength-Building Experience
We don’t do off-the-peg workouts at Fitness Lab. After talking to a dedicated strength coach at your free consultation, we’ll go away and put together a 100-day plan that will help you take huge strides towards your goals.
You can be confident that we know exactly what we’re talking about too. Our strength and conditioning coaches have experience at the highest levels – from coaching Premiership football teams and Formula 1 drivers to competing on Olympic and international stages, our personal trainers have the skills, expertise, and knowledge you want on your side.

Strength Training with No Membership Fees
As a Fitness Lab client, you do not pay ongoing membership fees — you pay for the sessions you use and nothing more.
This means you’ll always get outstanding value for money – and you can adjust your sessions up and down as required so they fit perfectly around your life and schedule.

What Happens at a Strength Training Consultation?
When you get in touch with Fitness Lab, we’ll call or email to arrange a free, no-obligation 1-hour consultation at the studio of your choice with a world-class coach we think will suit your needs.
During your consultation, you’ll get a tour of the studio, and your personal trainer will chat with you about your goals. We’ll carry out a detailed movement assessment and a professional body composition scan – helping to identify strengths and potential weaknesses. From there, your coach will explain exactly what your sessions would involve.
It’s the perfect opportunity to see if Fitness Lab feels like a good fit for your life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will I Be Lifting Lots of Heavy Weights to Improve Strength?
Everyone is different – with different strengths, weakness, limb lengths, and training history. As such, you’ll never come to Fitness Lab and just be expected to lift big weights just because other people do. Instead, we’ll carefully assess you and your abilities, then begin strength training in a safe and considered way.
If you’re interested in how strength training and muscle gain can differ from person to person, we’ve talked to our personal trainers in London and explored this question in more detail on our blog: Should You Be Lifting Heavy Weights?
Can You Help Me Work on Grip Strength?
Yes, we can. Grip strength is a factor that plays a huge role – both in personal training sessions and in everyday life. Our coaches will help identify if your grip strength could use some work, the programme the kinds of exercises that will help to boost that strength.
If you’d like to learn more about grip strength, we’ve created a dedicated blog on the subject: Why is Grip Strength Important?
Can You Help Me Train for Hypertrophy?
We can help you work towards any goal you have in mind – so yes, training to increase muscle size or ‘tone up’ is no problem and an area we have a lot of experience in.
We’ve created a blog that looks at hypertrophy and strength training – comparing and contrasting the two: What Does Hypertrophy of Muscles Mean?
Can I Expect Strength Training to Boost my Mental Health?
Almost certainly, yes. Most personal trainers will explain that as you exercise and get stronger, you’ll usually find that your levels of energy, focus, and general feeling of well-being increase too. It makes sense of course, the more your body is conditioned for performance, the more likely you are to get ultimate performance from your brain too!
Of course, exercise isn’t the answer to all mental health conditions, but even if you require medical support or medication, exercise is almost always going to be a helpful tool.
Will Building Strength Help Me Lose Weight?
If weight loss is one of your goals, muscle and strength building workouts are an important part of how you’ll get there. Your body requires more energy to maintain muscle than it does fat – so as your strength grows, so will the amount of calories that you naturally burn as you go about your day. The most striking body transformations always begin with strength training.
Can You Work with Strength Training Beginners?
Absolutely! No matter what you goal or current level of fitness, improving your strength is always going to offer benefits. The personal trainers at Fitness Lab will be able to work with you and support you even if you’ve never stepped foot in gym before.
In fact, we’ve created a blog post that looks at this subject in more depth: Strength Training for Beginners.
Can Strength Training Be Helpful For Runners?
Yes, it definitely can. Runners will often avoid strength training fearing that it will make them bulky and reduce their performance.
This is often a misconception though. A well-rounded program for runners should include some strength training – especially because it helps with injury prevention and coordination.
Take a more detailed look at how it could work for you in our blog: Adding Strength Training to a Runner’s Workout Plan.
