More Muscle. more mobility.
more energy.
Small-group strength training for men in Islington that delivers real results.
Know your body to be your best
There’s a wide range of ages in our male member community, and a fair few over 30. That’s no coincidence. Thirty is the point in life when your body starts paying you back for packing in the sports or living a less than healthy lifestyle. Daily activities start to become a little harder, grabbing something from off the floor comes with risks and it’s all too easy to feel your hamstring go in the Sunday football league or playing with your kid. We know the challenges (because some of us have been there), and we also know the solutions.
WHAT IS LIFTING LADS
A strength-based fitness program designed specifically for men who want to build functional strength, improve health, and train in a supportive, no-ego environment..
4:1 Small Group Coaching
we offer small-group sessions (4 men to 1 coach), giving you personalised attention and support while still benefiting from group motivation.
Strength That Actually Matters
We’re about building real-world strength — not just looking good in the mirror. Pick up heavy stuff, move better, feel sharper.
Proper Coaching, No Fluff
You’ll train in small groups with expert coaches who know their stuff. Real guidance, real progress — no guesswork, no BS.
A Crew That’s Got Your Back
Train hard, have a laugh, push each other. It’s not a gym full of posers — it’s a team. Everyone’s here to get stronger, together.
“Achieving better mobility, building muscle, boosting aerobic capacity,
warming up properly, improving recovery: these are just some of the
areas we focus on to get you back in shape and maybe even end up with
a better physique than your 20-year-old self.

Why men need Strength Training?
Increased StrengtH
Build real, functional strength that carries over into everyday life — whether it’s lifting heavier in the gym, carrying the kids, or dominating your weekend sport. Stronger body, stronger mindset.
Improved Body Composition
Increasing lean muscle mass and reducing body fat. This can lead to a more defined physique.
Boost Testosterone
The natural way. We focus on getting down the basics; resistance training, whole food nutrition, proper recovery, and sleeping like a baby.
Boosted Metabolism
When combined with a balanced diet and cardiovascular exercise, strength training can contribute to staying leaner and more energised.
Improved Health
It has been shown to have numerous health benefits, including improved cardiovascular health, decreased risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and certain cancers, and improved mental health
