Executive Personal Training | City of London EC2M

Build measurable strength and fitness

The programme begins with a full array of assessments that allows me to tailor every part of your programme, including physical training, lifestyle guidance and nutritional coaching.

Measurable Results

I use the latest in health technology to get objective measurements of your body fat, muscle mass, fitness and even stress and sleep levels.

Tailored Training

With a comprehensive movement and fitness assessment at the start, all training is tailored specifically to your goals and needs.

Specialist Training

With an extensive background in rehabilitation, you know that the training is designed to not only make you fitter and stronger, but to build a healthy body.

Comprehensive Programme

We don't just focus on one area; I look at your physical health, nutrition and your lifestyle to ensure everything you do is moving you towards your goals.

Apart from helping me maintain my sanity in the City and helping me recover from 3 different surgical procedures, Ben has kept me on the straight and narrow: visceral fat down, lean muscle up – what’s not to like?!

Get the data needed to motivate and measure change with a fully comprehensive array of assessments that gives me the data I need to build each element of your programme.

The programme starts with a combination of quantitative and qualitative assessments which include:
‍
DEXA scanning to get an exact measure of body fat and muscle to the nearest gram plus an exact map of where you are storing it.
‍
Metabolic testing to know exactly how many calories your body burns at rest and whether you are burning a greater amount at fats or carbohydrates.
‍
VO2 max testing to see how many calories and what fuel you are using at specific heart rates so that we know what training zones you should be training at for fat loss and fitness gains.
‍
Heart rate variability profiling to monitor how your stress and recovery varies over a 72 hour period allowing us o improve lifestyle factors for increased mental and physical resilience.
‍
Movement assessment to highlight what areas of the body need work to ensure a safe, effective and well-rounded training programme.

There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach, personal training sessions are built around you.

Based on the results of the assessments and your own goals, your program will be created accordingly. The movement assessment will show any corrective exercise needs to give you strong foundations. We will maximise your strengths and bolster any weaknesses.

Strength training will be designed to improve all areas of your muscular fitness including your stability, strength, endurance and power.

Your cardiovascular training will be tailored based on your VO2 max testing so you'll work at specific heart rates to achieve specific targets. That way you are training smart, not just hard.

‍

Nutrition is fundamental to optimal performance and achieving your health goals.

I don’t try to overhaul your life and set unrealistic food plans; we’ll work together to find what areas in your nutrition need most work.

Nutrition plays a huge role in whether or not you achieve your goals and there is no one-size-fits-all approach that works for everyone.

That's why your nutrition coaching will be tailored to suit your needs and lifestyle. Some clients need strict tailored meal plans, while others need more flexibility and realistic solutions due to work commitments.

I'll help you find the solution that works for you.

rob client hip knee surgery testimonial rehabilitation personal training

I started training with Ben for rehab after one of several hip and knee operations. Apart from helping me maintain my sanity in the City and helping me recover from 3 different surgical procedures, Ben has kept me on the straight and narrow: visceral fat down, lean muscle up – what’s not to like?! If you are on the fence about starting training, just do it! The quicker you start, the better you’ll feel and the longer you’ll live! I can guarantee that Ben will help you be stronger than your excuses.

Michael client knee surgery testimonial rehabilitation personal training

I was referred to Ben by my physio in 2018 for focussed strengthening work after slow and faltering recovery from knee ligament and meniscus arthroscopy. Ben has been incredibly helpful in designing a bespoke series of dynamic core and leg exercises which has significantly improved the strength and reduced chronic pain in affected areas (sufficient to enable me to cycle up Mt Ventoux in June 2019). Ben’s unerring positive and encouraging attitude instil confidence and (combined with his informed interest in sports and current affairs, as well as immense patience with my intermittent exercise regime) make sessions both enjoyable and rewarding.

Erik client running injury testimonial rehabilitation personal training

After getting a running induced stress fracture in my left leg, the physiotherapist that treated me suggested I started training with Ben. He set out an effective training programme in twice-a-week sessions, not just targeting my specific weakness - which had caused my injury in the first place - but also building muscle. Besides the physical benefits of the sessions, they were also a welcome relief from the daily work-related pressures. I would highly recommend training with Ben - if you’re in doubt just give it a go and I am sure you will not regret it.

I started training with Ben at the beginning of January, when everyone thinks they need to do something! The big difference is that, 6 months later, I haven’t quit! That is down to Ben and his training style. He concentrated on building up the parts of me that were likely to fail first, ensuring I was strong enough to take on the training workload. I saw real improvements quickly and now, 6 months later, the change in my shape is noticeable. I’m stronger, fitter and feel so much more engaged with life.

Ben was my personal trainer for a couple of years until I moved away from London. If I could have taken him with me, I would have. I needed someone to help me with my posture, flexibility and strength. Ben put together a fun but demanding programme that responded to my specific needs and adjusted it regularly to maintain progress and interest. He knows a huge amount about fitness and nutrition and took a real interest in my health and wellbeing, providing good advice and encouragement. His optimism and wacky sense of humour sustained me through many an early morning workout. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

Gerard Sanders - General Counsel

I relocated to London after six years in New York where I'd had a personal trainer who had helped me start regaining core strength and flexibility after a herniated disc. I was very keen to progress, but also particular to find someone who was appropriately qualified and enthusiastic to help. I found and chose Ben after a thorough search. I felt from the outset that I'd landed on my feet. Ben has been excellent, helping with conditioning, strength as well as nutrition all of which has made a real difference. I feel stronger, healthier and all in all, better. If you are in any doubt, my advice is trust him and let him help; you won't regret it.

Bruce McAra - Managing Director

Ben is incredibly knowledgeable and he is a fun person to work with. He draws his approach from his multi discipline knowledge and brings different skills to each section. He plans some amazing workouts which emphasise balance, strength and power. He also complements training with nutritional support. Working in the City I needed a trainer who has a flexible approach to timing and changing schedules.

I have been sending my patients to train with Ben for almost 5 years. For me it is crucial that a trainer understands how to safely and effectively train someone who is just coming out of acute injury and Ben does exactly that. I have passed him patients with a variety of issues from hip replacements to lumbar disc extrusions and am always happy with the outcomes. If you are looking for an exceptional rehabilitative personal trainer either for yourself or to send your patients to; Ben is your man!

Dominika Bezakova Physio testimonial rehabilitation personal training

As a physiotherapist, I work with personal trainers closely. Collaboration with Ben was truly a great experience in my clinical practice. He is always very proactive, reliable and hugely experienced as a trainer and rehabilitation specialist. His understanding of functionality of human body is admirable and he is able to utilise his skills in effective rehabilitation and training. His special interest in Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilisation makes Ben one of the few trainers in the world licensed with this highly effective technique, and that is one of the many reasons I referred large amount of my patients to Ben.

Sara Ayala Physio testimonial rehabilitation personal training

I had the luck of meeting ben 4 years ago and I was very impressed by his deep and solid knowledge of the human body and rehabilitation. Soon after that, I sent one of my patients who suffered from a complicated herniated disc. After he spoke to me, Ben perfectly tailored the sessions to meet my patient's specific rehabilitation needs and the outcome was remarkable. From then on, I knew I could trust him. Every patient I have sent to train with him has come back happy as they find that every session is run in a relaxed yet supportive environment.

Nick Tzanos Chiropractor testimonial rehabilitation personal training

Ben is the first trainer I think of to refer my recovering patients to. I need to know that they will be well looked after and given effective exercises to get them back to full fitness. I know that I can work closely with him and he will implement my recommendations in his sessions. I recently sent him a patient with a disc protrusion who has made remarkable progress and is back playing rugby. He also helped one of my patients avoid the need for surgery for a chronic disc issue. Whether it’s my sport athletes or my desk athletes, Ben is the guy I send them to.
