Kingdom Barbell

George's passion for weightlifting is infectious and he has a fantastic knowledge of the sport. He knows exactly what to do to improve your lifts and is dedicated to helping you achieve your goals. Would recommend any day of the week.

George is an approachable guy who pushes you when you need it and makes sure you're getting your technique right.
He helped me lose weight and get strong. He understands the science behind movement and nutrition, so speaks with authority when helping you understand how to do better.
He even does remote coaching too. Great coach for the casual. And I hear he's good with professional athletes too.

I would really, really recommend Kingdom Barbell. I decided to try weightlifting out a couple of years ago but never really imagined how much I'd enjoy it. Kingdom Barbell is not like any other club and has an amazing atmosphere which makes you want to keep going back.
George is an encouraging and motivating coach and is passionate about his job. He pays attention to detail and gives you clear and individual feedback which really helps you improve quickly. I'd definitely recommend Kingdom Barbell!

Great coaching, great gym.
I've known George for several years, his commitment, dedication and professionalism whilst coaching are 2nd to none.
Whether you're a seasoned pro, or an absolute beginner (like I was), I would highly recommend paying Kingdom Barbell a visit.

I was nervous about doing distance coaching, as my previous experiences had not been great. But George is a really knowledgeable coach.
He knows that each athlete has different needs and not only works on technique and strength, but also works with his athletes to understand their nutrition, life challenges, motivations, and goals. He’s great at communication, which makes all the difference in distance coaching.

I'd been doing Crossfit for over a year and my lifting had stunted so joined Kingdom Barbell and my lifts have gone from strength to strength because of George!

He's a great coach and plans and adapts programs to suit both what you need and what you're doing e.g. competitions. Not only does he help you then and there but he teaches you so you know what you're looking for when you're training on your own too!

If you want to start Olympic lifting or improve, I'd definitely recommend George!

Kingdom Barbell has a great atmosphere, everyone is encouraging and friendly. I go to hang out as much as lift weights....

George is an excellent coach who gives really insightful personalised tips on how to improve, no matter what stage you're at.

I'm really impressed with how KB have adapted to the whole covid-lockdown - loads of videos on how to keep training at home with what you have around you. I loaned a bar and some weights so I can keep it up in the garden!

Thanks KB!

The coach is very good at coaching all comers and all abilities and makes everyone welcome. He is particularly attentive to detail and makes time for all even in group coaching sessions. The group coaching sessions are particularly good value for money and helps you feel your way into the sport in a positive community environment.
