Strength training is one of the most powerful things you can do for your long-term health. But it is only effective when the foundations are right, and that starts with understanding how your body moves. At The Everstrong Gym in Ealing, every programme is built around you, not a template.

It does not have to be inevitable. But it does need to be addressed.
Current research points to strength as one of the biggest predictors of long-term health, not just how long we live; but how well. Muscle supports metabolic health, stabilises blood sugar, protects against chronic disease and reduces the risk of falls and frailty. It keeps us independent.
For women, strength training also plays a direct role in bone density. Resistance-based exercise signals the body to lay down new bone tissue, one of the most effective tools available for preventing and managing osteopenia and osteoporosis.
As Dr Gabrielle Lyon puts it: "The quality of your life is a direct reflection of your muscle health."
It is never too late to start. The important part is starting well.
Most people know they should be strength training. Far fewer have been taught to do it in a way that is genuinely safe, progressive and tailored to them.
What Liz brings to strength training is 35 years of movement teaching and 25 years of training other movement professionals. The observational skills developed through dance and Pilates give her coaching a different edge, she spots the smaller details that many trainers miss, the things that are often the difference between lifting heavier and getting injured.
Every session is built around conversation, observation and feedback. A programme built around your body, your history and what you are actually trying to achieve.
"Completely bespoke programmes to suit what you need most with the right amount of accountability to keep you on track.”
Current clients include women in their 50s building muscle for the first time, seasoned exercisers who want more structure and precision, and Pilates clients who found that a solid movement foundation gave them the confidence to approach the weights room.
One client, a former European champion handball player, has said that had she trained with Liz during her competing years, she believes she would have made it to the Olympics.
But the results Liz is most proud of are simpler than that. The clients who came in terrified of the gym and now cannot imagine a week without it. The women who arrived apologising for not knowing what they were doing and left knowing exactly how their body works.
"The difference between Liz and other personal trainers I have worked with is that Liz actually listens."
"Within a couple of months I can feel the benefits."
"I have weekly sessions with Liz, I can’t imagine my life without them.”
Building strength means working muscles against resistance so they grow stronger over time. This can start with bodyweight alone, then progress gradually, using a resistance band, lighter weights, and eventually resistance machines and free weights. Creating this stimulus is what allows both muscle and bone to grow stronger, which makes it essential for long-term health.
Strength training builds around core movement patterns: squat, hinge, lunge, push and pull. Sessions at The Everstrong Gym are structured around these patterns, building understanding, control and consistency before progressing further.
Sessions at The Everstrong Gym are fully 1:1, combining intelligent programme design with hands-on coaching. Rather than a fixed class format, each session is built around individual goals, current ability and how the body responds over time.
Not everyone does, but it helps significantly for people new to strength training, returning after a break, or wanting expert eyes on technique. The Strength Start Up and Strength Foundations Block sessions exist specifically to build that confidence and independence.
1:1 Personal Training sessions are £65, with a reduced rate of £50 when booking multiple sessions per week. The four-session Strength Foundations Block is £220, or £55 per session, designed for those building independent training confidence.
This depends on individual goals and recovery capacity. Many clients start with one to two sessions per week, using the guidance from those sessions to inform independent training in between.
