As someone who hates gyms I was nervous about going to see Ben on the recommendation of my daughter who is also very happy client! I have found Ben to be a great teacher with an excellent feel for the sort of work that I need at my age. His gym is small so it always feels quiet and personal, making the whole experience a pleasure and not a chore. I'm not sure I'd like any other gym but I sure like this one!

As a busy investor in my 40s, I wanted to get stronger and take better care of my health, but I never enjoyed crowded gyms and wasn’t really sure what I should be doing with weights. Training at Health² with Ben, the owner, has been a complete game changer. The private setting is relaxed, welcoming, and free from the distractions of a normal gym, and Ben’s coaching is first class. He is incredibly knowledgeable, plans everything properly, and goes above and beyond to make sure you get the best out of each session. I’ve seen real improvements in my strength, energy levels, and confidence, and I actually enjoy training now. I’d highly recommend Ben and Health² to anyone who wants professional guidance, a more personal experience, and proper support with their health and fitness.

Ben has a rare gift, an astonishingly in-depth knowledge of sports fitness but then the ability to teach and train with empathy, care, clarity of communication in a way that makes you feel empowered, excited and energised. Since seeing him I have felt transformed physically and psychologically. I can't recommend (and praise) him and his team enough.

The best gym (and trainer) in the world. I said what I said. I’ve been training with Ben for six months and - sorry to be one of those people - it’s changed my life. I started because I’ve just turned 35 and have never found a form of exercise that didn’t feel punitive or mired in weight loss. Working a sedentary job I knew I had to find ‘my thing’ to stay healthy as I age and model a balanced lifestyle for my daughter. Well, weight training with Ben is it! I’ve never worked with a trainer who is so instinctive and attuned to an individual’s needs. He knows when to push and when to encourage. The gym is brilliant, so well equipped, spotless, and a welcoming environment. I’ve gone from seeing exercise as something I have to do to maintain health, to something I love doing. I’ve not been results focused but through Ben’s guidance on nutrition I’ve seen my weight move into a healthy bracket at a natural and sustainable pace. I could not recommend Ben and his team more. It’s a special set up, and I’m so grateful to have found this place!

I highly recommend this private gym, and in particular my trainer, Izzy. I signed up for a three months programme with the goal of becoming stronger and leaner, and Izzy has helped me achieve exactly that. Every session was tailored to my ability and pushes me just the right amount, and I’ve seen a real difference in my strength, fitness, and confidence. Izzy is knowledgeable, motivating, and genuinely committed to helping you reach your goals. If you’re looking for a personal trainer who delivers results, Izzy and Health2 are outstanding.

Lifting weights has always slightly scared me and I found the weights areas in gyms very intimidating so I never ventured there. I have previously had back surgery so also been very cautious about what I can and cannot do. Health² is completely different; it is a private gym and Ben is so supportive and encouraging and modifies any exercise that I feel is not right for my back (don’t believe he makes it easier though!) I started with Ben 6 months ago, I wanted to lose weight, get confident lifting weights and get stronger (middle aged women goals!) I have achieved all of this and really enjoyed it too, I find myself looking forward to my next session and seeing what I can achieve. Ben is always happy to answer the many random questions I throw at him including enough science to help my understanding without bamboozling me. I have been so impressed with Ben and his team at Health² that not only have I recommended my business partner but I also introduced my in-laws who are both in their 80s and they have been working with Ben for a couple of months now. Don’t believe a personal trainer is just for young people, in my experience Health² can help anyone of any age and any level of fitness.

Mission accomplished. I came to see Ben at the beginning of the year with the goal of improving my general fitness & strength by the summer as I had a rigorous selection process to get through. Two days later we did my fitness assessment and a week later I had my programme sorted & the app to track it all, two sessions a week with one of his trainers Rob. Within three months I could see a difference in the mirror, lifting & carrying at work felt easier and my energy levels felt better. Though it had been hard work to begin with Rob kept me motivated and the programme evolving to keep it interesting. At the end of of our six months I had lost almost 5% body fat & replaced that with muscle. Thanks to Ben & his team going in to that selection process I was stronger & fitter than most of the guys and I was twenty years older than them! Job done.

The absolute necessity of making a change in my lifestyle coincided with zero motivation to do something about it myself. Ben built me up gently, pushing me hard enough so that I started feeling more motivated but not hard enough to break my will to keep going. It's made a huge difference to my day-to-day life. I can't recommend Ben highly enough.

I hadn't set foot in a gym since i got married back in 2014 until my birthday this year in March. The comfort i have attending Ben's private gym is unmatched. I have never felt self conscious or that I'm being judged for a poor technique. The guidance from Mut is always so positive and I enjoy my session every week, when I feel most like I can't do it I always know I've achieved something good. Thank you for providing a space that is inclusive especially to the likes of me that doesn't have proper sport fits and loves to wear mouth tape 🤩
