No Hype.
No Crowds.
Just Proven
Performance.
Labs Fitness is a premium, low-volume boutique studio in Shoreditch built for those who want to get on with their own agenda. We don't do gimmicks, and we don't do crowded gym floors. We provide the space, the tried-and-tested equipment, and the expert coaching you need to see real results—set in an environment that champions your success.
Cutting Through the Fitness Industry Noise
The modern fitness world is flooded with influencers selling shortcuts, unproven products, and confusing myths. It's loud, it's intimidating, and it strips away the personalization you actually need to make progress. At Labs Fitness, we cut through the noise. We don't care about social media algorithms or aesthetics for the sake of it. We care about what actually works. We only ask for one thing from you: the willingness to show up, take onboard expert advice, and implement it the best you can. If you bring the commitment, our refined team of personal trainers will handle the rest.
Low Volume, Zero Chaos
We aren't a mass-chain gym looking to lock you into a faceless annual contract just to crowd the floor. We purposely keep our numbers low so you never have to fight for equipment, wait around, or feel like you're being watched. It's your sanctuary to train in peace.
Tried & Tested Performance
We don't do gimmicks or chase fitness trends. Our Shoreditch studio is equipped with premium, proven kit designed to deliver actual body composition changes, strength gains, and athletic capability. What we do works—plain and simple.
The 'Family' Vibe
This isn't a cold, anonymous corporate space. At Labs, our trainers and members cross paths, converse, and support one another. We celebrate each other's wins and foster a genuinely friendly, welcoming atmosphere. It's a premium studio with a true community spirit.
Discreetly Elite
Since 2013, Labs has quietly become the studio of choice for freelancers, founders and the occasional recognisable face — people who want serious results without an audience. We don't shout about our clientele. They just keep coming back.
The 6 to 12 Week Roadmap
Real progress isn't a straight line, and we won't insult your intelligence with 'overnight transformation' marketing. When you commit to a regular training program with us, you will likely see some quick wins and initial gains early on. But fitness has natural plateaus. When you hit them, we don't panic—we pivot. By constantly assessing and refining your nutrition, your programming, and your training intensity, our team ensures you break through the blocks. If you stick to the plan and execute to the best of your ability, you will see significant, undeniable progress within 6 to 12 weeks.

What Our Members Say
"Been going to this gym 4x a week since i moved to London 6+ years ago and I still absolutely love it. The owner and trainers are amazing and it's setup perfectly regardless of what kind of training you're after. The new addition of the sauna and plunge for recovery puts it over the top. If you're looking for a great gym with a great vibe this is the place!"
"LOVE Labs Fitness so much. A great place to workout. Very chill environment and a great space. And Raquel is INCREDIBLE - super supportive and motivating. She actually makes working out fun! Would highly recommend her to anyone."
"Wonderful gym with a great atmosphere. This place has everything in terms of equipment, especially for those wanting to focus on strength & conditioning. There's a fantastic atmosphere and everyone is extremely supportive and encouraging. Great place for any gym-goer, whether beginner or advanced. Couldn't recommend this place more highly."
"SUCH a lovely gym and lovely owner. Has everything you need, facilities are top notch & can we please take a moment for the ice bath and sauna room?! Such a clever use of space - towels provided and the sauna and ice bath were just perfect."
"I've been going to Labs Fitness now for nearly 6 months and I thought it was time to write a review. Firstly - the owner Geoff - what a gent. If you want a PT studio that has it all, look no further. You will find a plethroa of kit at this gym, including a track / sled - all the cardio machines you could need (literally all the ergs) and excellent shower facilities for when you need to freshen up before heading to / back to work. But what really sets this place aside from the others are the people that work within Labs. I mentioned Geoff: he's been in the biz for 15 years and while he's not my PT, i've seen him coach plenty around me. He, like other PT's within the studio (Ollie Black, Alfie Barker) take their time, and spend their energy on really giving clients what they need: proper coaching! The vibes within this place are excellent - I would never spend my time anywhere with awful energy...and all in all, it's a very elite place to train. Prices are very reasonable for a London PT studio AND to top it all off, they've also installed a sauna / cold plunge recovery to the gym for their Members. So if you're looking to start training or are looking at jumping ship my advice is to RUN, dont walk to Labs. See you there."

Frequently Asked Questions
Got Questions?
What makes Labs Fitness different from a normal gym in Shoreditch?+
Labs Fitness is a boutique, low-volume personal training studio, not a high-traffic commercial gym. We cap member numbers so equipment is always free, trainers can actually coach, and clients aren't competing for space. We also have a private recovery suite with an infrared sauna and cold plunge on-site.
Where is Labs Fitness located?+
Labs Fitness is located at 18A Long Street, London E2 8HQ, in Shoreditch.
Does Labs Fitness offer personal training or just gym membership?+
Both. You can join as a member and train independently on our equipment, or book bespoke 1-2-1 personal training packages — including a 12-week transformation programme with biometric testing checkpoints — with one of our expert coaches.
Does Labs Fitness have recovery facilities like a sauna or cold plunge?+
Yes. Labs Fitness has a private recovery suite featuring an infrared sauna and a cold plunge pool, available to members and personal training clients to speed up recovery and reduce soreness between sessions.
Is Labs Fitness good for beginners?+
Yes. Our coaches build training programmes around your current ability and goals rather than a one-size-fits-all template, so beginners get the same level of individual attention and progression as advanced athletes.
