1-2-1s
Training programmes developed for you by our dedicated team of Fitness Coaches, tailored towards your short and long term health and fitness goals
1-2-1s are open to everyone at Holywell Fitness Centre or Powerbase, but places are limited so you will need to book! The easiest way is to book online or via the Loughborough Sport app. However, you can also book at reception or over the phone (01509 226250). You cannot book a 1-2-1 gym session until you've had an initial Programme Consultation.
To create a bespoke training programme to work towards achieving your personal goals, our Holywell consultations additionally consist of a body composition analysis and our Powerbase consultations provide a movement analysis to allow our coaches to write a comprehensive programme based on data collated.
How to start your 1-2-1 training programme:
Step 1 - book your Programme Consultation
Book your Programme Consultation on the app through the Fitness Coaches tile and select your preferred gym.
You'll be able to see the available slots listed for each Fitness Coach. Please browse their bios and qualifications below to choose the Fitness Coach most suited to your training goals. Or just book into the slot at the most suitable time as all our Coaches are great to work with!
At the Consultation, the Fitness Coach will discuss your previous experiences, short / long term goals and any medical conditions and / or injuries that may prevent you from taking part in any specific or general exercise. With this information they can put together a fitness programme that is tailored to your individual needs and goals.
This will take approximately 20 to 30 minutes and will be delivered in the Holywell Fitness Centre foyer area so no need to be dressed in gym attire. Please report to reception 5 minutes before your scheduled booking. The Fitness Coach will meet you here.
After this Consultation, the Fitness Coach will put together your training programme and you will then be able to book your 1-2-1 gym sessions, on a pay as you go basis.

You will receive your training programme before the first session so you have the opportunity to prepare any questions you might have about it.
At each 1-2-1 gym session, the Fitness Coach will go through the programme and it will last for one hour. Please be gym ready for your 1-2-1 sessions.
If you have any queries, please don't hesitate to email us at holywellfitnesscentre@lboro.ac.uk.

James
Powerbase Fitness Coach
- I love the outdoors and adventure. Regular hiking, climbing and camping means being fit, healthy and injury free is essential for my lifestyle. Therefore, the gym is an important part of that.
- Having suffered from a range of minor injuries and niggles in the past, I developed a keen interest in mobility training, and specifically prehab exercises. Prehab essentially prepares the joints of the body through end-range strength training and stability exercises to help prevent those annoying overuse injuries.
- I take great pride in helping people of all abilities, from complete beginners to overcoming plateaus and improving advanced lifting performance.
- I will be running weekly mobility classes that explore different prehab exercises to help improve full body mobility. If you would like to have some more individualised mobility training, feel free to book me for a consultation where we can discuss some personal training sessions.
- Book in for a consultation also to spice up your training, develop your lifting or if you simply want to improve your overall physical condition – I am here to help.
Josh
Powerbase Fitness Coach
- My coaching style is truly client-centred, the goal being to empower you to improve your performance in and out of the gym. Everyone is different and will not have the same response to how training is applied. My aim is to adapt my approach according to the needs of the individual to provide them with the best coaching experience possible.
- I am constantly immersing myself in information to improve my skill set. Furthermore, I have had the opportunity to work with a variety of populations with different skill levels, ranging from complete novices to national-level athletes. This allows me to appreciate the art and science of coaching and blend the approaches to deliver a bespoke service.
- I have been competing in powerlifting for six years, competing at the national level. Managing training, studying and work is no easy task. Therefore, I understand that life does not stop for training. My role is to ensure that training works for you, whether that means adapting a session to meet your recovery state or finding alternative exercises because of an injury. Whatever it is, I am here to help.

I also have a particular passion for women’s fitness and am currently continuing my education in pre- and post- natal adaptations and other female hormonal considerations.
- I also enjoy teaching fun, high energy classes such as kettlebell combat and HIIT circuits as well as improving your posture, range of movement and biomechanics through stability, mobility and full body resistance training.
