Showing up gets easy
The biggest predictor of fitness consistency is friction. Cut the commute, the parking, the queue for the squat rack — and you'll train two to three more sessions a week without trying.
Home gym
Train on your terms. Every day.
A gym membership you actually use. A 20-second walk replaces a 20-minute drive, the kit's already racked, the music's already loud, and the room is designed for the way you train — not for forty other people.
Why home gym
A home gym earns its place.
These are the reasons our clients give us, in their own words, six months after moving in. Read them as honest arguments — not marketing.
No. 02
Properly engineered floor
Reinforced 22 mm structural-grade flooring rated for Olympic platforms, rubber matting and dead-lift drops. Squat racks bolt straight in.
No. 03
Ceiling height for everything
2.45 m+ internal clearance handles overhead press, pull-up rigs, skipping, kettlebell swings and rower extensions — most spare bedrooms can't.
No. 04
Heated, ventilated, mirrored
Underfloor heating for January workouts, MVHR ventilation so the room doesn't get sweaty, and a full-wall mirror so form stays honest.
No. 05
Smart power
Dedicated circuits for treadmill, assault bike, sound system, climate — no nuisance trips when you're mid-set.
No. 06
Cheaper than ten years of membership
A premium South West gym membership runs £80-£140 a month. Your garden gym hits break-even somewhere between year five and year seven — and stays yours after.
A natural starting point
Most clients begin with The Forge.
Recommended footprint: 3.5 × 3.5 m onwards. Every spec from this point onwards — insulation, glazing, electrics, finishes — is bespoke to how you'll actually use the room.
“Lift, run, stretch, recover — in a room built around the way you train.”
In their words
The room, six months on.
“Five sessions a week, every week, since the day it was finished.”
“Dropped my Le Monsieur gym membership the week we moved in.”
“5am squats with the doors open, sun coming up. Unreal.”
