Our Approach to Fitness Training

At the Commando Temple, fitness isn’t about quick fixes – it’s about building sustainable, long-term results that match your lifestyle and ambitions. Every programme begins with a fitness assessment so we can meet you where you are and design training that evolves with your progress.

We blend different methods to create balanced development across every area of fitness:

  • Strength, conditioning, and mobility to ensure you’re not just fitter, but also stronger and more resilient.
  • Assessment-led programming that adapts as you improve, keeping training relevant and effective.
  • Periodised cycles that structure your progress, helping you peak at the right times without burnout.

One of the unique advantages of training here is the depth of expertise under one roof. If your fitness training is part of a bigger goal – whether that’s excelling at rugby, running a faster race, or improving martial arts performance – we can tap into our network of specialist coaches. From strength and conditioning experts to combat sports instructors, you’ll have access to the right guidance to support your specific ambitions.

The result? A fitness programme that’s not just tailored to you today, but designed to grow with you over the long term.

Our Fitness Training Methods

Your programme may include:

  • Exercises and education to remove pain and restrictions within the body
  • Free weights and kettlebells to build strength and stability.
  • Military fitness techniques
  • Bodyweight and calisthenics for control and mobility.
  • Conditioning tools like sleds, rowers, bikes, and battle ropes.
  • Strongman-style training to develop resilience and real-world strength.

Beyond the Gym

Fitness training doesn’t stop when the session ends. Our trainers help you:

  • Shape nutrition habits that fuel progress.
  • Apply recovery strategies that boost energy and performance.
  • Build the mindset and routines that sustain results long term.

What to Expect from Coaching

When you start fitness training with us, you’ll get:

  • An initial consultation and fitness assessment to set the right foundation.
  • A programme tailored to your goals, time, and ability.
  • Hands-on coaching in every session to refine technique and track progress.
  • Access to a community of like-minded people who value hard work and growth.

The option to draw on specialist instructors – from strength and conditioning to martial arts – so your training supports not just fitness in the gym, but also performance in your chosen sport or activity.
