Hackney Wick is one Overground stop from the gym — about 8 minutes door to door. If you live in the Wick or work around the Olympic Park, you've got a quiet, properly equipped private gym a stone's throw away. Much better than the busy chains around Stratford.
Travel: 1 stop on the Overground from Hackney Wick to Homerton

What working with me looks like
Hackney Wick clients tend to be in the city's creative industries — film, design, architecture — long days, irregular hours, very little structured movement. Once we get a consistent 1- or 2-session-a-week rhythm going, the work transforms. Better sleep, more energy on long shoots and shoot weeks, and a body that holds up to the deadlines.
Sessions run at énergie Fitness Homerton (Unit 2, 68–82 Digby Road, London E9 6HX) — a fully kitted private gym with everything we need for serious 1-to-1 training.
Real clients
A couple of recent client patterns — names anonymised, the work is real.
Wick warehouse studio
Sitting 11 hours a day in edits, lower back was constantly tight. Trained 2× a week for 4 months — built core and posterior chain strength, back pain disappeared, and his posture in the chair improved enough that colleagues commented.
East Bank, 5-min cycle to gym
Used to train at the chains near Stratford, hated the queues. Switched to 1-to-1 here — half the time, double the progress.
FAQs
1 Overground stop (3 min train) plus a 2-min walk. Or 8 minutes by bike along the canal and up Wick Road.
Yes — I run sessions through the middle of the day. Lots of my Wick and Olympic Park clients train at 12 or 1pm and are back at their desk inside the hour.
We work around it. Foundation membership includes 1 session a week — you choose the day each week, scheduled in advance. For project-based work that level of flexibility tends to work well.
