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 us, 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 Trang fitness, 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.

Your New Favourite Gym in Islington

The benefits of using a private gym in Islington

Don’t like big open studios or public gyms? Neither do we. If you value personalised attention, high-quality facilities, and a specialised atmosphere, a private boutique gym could be a worthwhile investment in your fitness journey.

No waiting for equipment, no changing your routine to work around others, and no feeling of being watched while you exercise.

A Truly Personalised Strength-Building Experience

We don’t do off-the-peg workouts at Trang fitness. 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.

Real People, Real Stories, Real Results

No Membership Fees

As a 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.

You can even share the sessions you’ve paid for with a spouse, family member, colleague or friend too.

What Happens at a Personal Training Consultation?

When you get in touch with us, we’ll call or email to arrange a free, no-obligation online consultation.

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 produce a 100-day plan explaining exactly what your sessions will involve.

It’s the perfect opportunity to see if you feels like a good fit for your life.

  • Sam Dickinson

    I've been working with Trang as my PT for about four months now, and it's honestly been amazing. I was quite nervous at first because I had zero gym experience and wasn't very active, but Trang has been nothing but encouraging since the get-go, and has never made me feel bad about my fitness level or experience.

  • Jen L

    Trang is such a wonderful high energy coach that creates a safe space esp if you're a woman just starting to get into fitness lifting. She helps build confidence and optimism, and the location and class times are super convenient esp with my busy schedule. Also keen to support small businesses. Highly recommend!

  • Jess

    I have loved having Trang as my trainer 3x a week. She’s been part of a pivotal change in my life as I finish uni and start navigating the real world, and I’m positive my relationship with my body and food will continue to transform!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Everyone is different – with different strengths, weakness, limb lengths, and training history. As such, you’ll never come to us 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?

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Absolutely! No matter what you goal or current level of fitness, improving your strength is always going to offer benefits. The personal trainers at Trang fitness 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.

  • 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.
