ABOUT THE CLUB

Built because gyms were failing people.

WHERE IT ALL STARTED

A different approach to coaching, support and belonging.

Back in 2016, Ben and Lyndsey were watching the same thing happen over and over again.

People would join gyms full of motivation. They'd show up a few times, feel lost, feel out of place, and quietly disappear. Nobody noticed. Nobody followed up. Nobody actually helped them. The industry was treating people as numbers to sign up, not members to look after. And it wasn't good enough.

So they built something different.

WHAT WE SET OUT TO BUILD

A place to feel comfortable, supported and properly coached.

The idea behind The Club was simple. A place where people who didn't feel like they belonged in a gym, could finally feel like they did.

Somewhere with real coaching and real experience behind it. Where the sessions were short and smart. Where you'd be guided every time you walked in. Where the coaches genuinely cared about your results, your confidence and how you felt leaving every session.

Most importantly, a place where every session could be the best part of your day.

WHAT WE DON'T DO

We don’t chase trends, only what actually works

We don’t sign you up and leave you alone

We don’t care about looking impressive on the surface

We focus on real results!

WHAT OUR MEMBERS GET

Real results, with support every step.

Since 2016 we have coached thousands of people through the doors of The Club. What keeps them coming back is not complicated.

They learn to lift correctly and safely. They get coached on their nutrition in a way that actually makes sense. They feel part of a community that supports them. They have coaches who know their name, notice their progress and celebrate their wins. They get stronger, leaner and healthier without it taking over their life.

And they actually enjoy it.

MEET THE TEAM

Experienced coaches who genuinely care about your progress.

Lyndsey Harwood

Co-Founder & Coach

Lyndsey has been working in fitness and sports therapy since 2009, but her favourite part of the job has never been the qualifications on the wall. It's the member who comes back after years away from exercise and realises they're stronger than they thought. The person who started just to lose a bit of weight and ended up loving how training makes them feel. Outside of the gym, Lyndsey is a serious endurance athlete — she's competed in marathons and ultra marathons, including the legendary Comrades Marathon in South Africa, one of the world's most iconic and gruelling races. She knows what it takes to push through, and she brings that same commitment to everyone she coaches. She and Ben founded The Club Fitness Space in 2016 because they wanted to build somewhere that felt like a community — not a transaction. That's still what drives everything here.

Ben

Co-Founder & Coach

Ben started coaching in 2011, but The Club Fitness Space became something different entirely. When he and Lyndsey opened the doors in 2016, the idea was straightforward: create a place where people actually feel comfortable, actually get to know each other, and actually see results — without the intimidation of a big commercial gym. Outside of coaching, Ben is a dad and someone who genuinely loves training. He competes in strongman and powerlifting, which means he understands the frustration of juggling real life with wanting to show up and feel good in your body. If you've ever walked into a gym and felt like you didn't belong — this place was built for you.

Julie

Coach

Julie joined The Club Fitness Space nearly four years ago as an apprentice, and in that time she’s become one of those coaches members just gravitate toward. Her style is warm, encouraging, and genuinely patient — which makes her brilliant if you’re just starting out or coming back to exercise after a long time away. She has a gift for making people feel at ease from day one, and for helping them realise pretty quickly that they’re more capable than they thought. If walking through the door for the first time feels like a big step, Julie makes it feel like the right one.

Georgia

Coach & Programme Lead

Georgia joined The Club Fitness Space bringing with her a solid background in personal training and coaching that shows every time she’s on the gym floor. She gets the right balance of a gentle nudge and support just when you need it. As the person leading our programme design, she’s the one making sure your sessions are structured, progressive, and actually built around where you’re trying to get to. She cares about the details — and it shows in the results members get.

COACHING BUILT AROUND YOU

Led by experienced coaches in Fleet, Hampshire.

Ben and Lyndsey bring decades of coaching experience and founded The Club in 2016 with a clear mission — to make real coaching accessible to people who had been let down by traditional gyms, and to create a place where everyone feels welcome from day one. That approach hasn’t changed.

Based in Church Crookham, Fleet, our sessions are intentionally small so coaching stays personal, the community stays close, and nobody ever gets lost in the crowd.
