Best Personal Trainers in London – The Times
About Luke Worthington
Recognised Among the Best Personal Trainers in London and Worldwide
Regularly recognised by the Institute of Personal Training as one of the best personal trainers in the World, and also featured by The Times, Evening Standard, and Luxury London as one of the best personal trainers in London. I’m proud to bring this level of expertise to every actor and performer I work with.
Extensive Experience with Major Studios and Leading Talent
My experience spans working extensively with major studios such as Marvel, Lucasfilm, AmazonMGM and Netflix, as well as being engaged directly at the specific request of leading talent. I am equally comfortable delivering highly personalised one-to-one training or coordinating tailored physical preparation programs for entire casts, ensuring each performer is shoot-ready, resilient, and aligned with the creative vision.
Consultation and Education for World Leading Brands
I spent five years consulting extensively for Nike on training techniques, and also wrote and delivered the Nike Personal Training certification on behalf of the Worlds biggest sports brand. I also spent a decade as an Elite Personal Trainer and Head of Trainer Education with Third Space, London’s leading fitness group, writing and delivering their internal personal trainer education program, helping to shape the skills of trainers at London’s leading luxury fitness chain.
Professional Qualifications and Specialist Training
My qualifications include a BSc in Sport & Exercise Science, MSc in Biomechanics, Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), Precision Nutrition Coach, and Sports Massage Therapist. In addition, I hold numerous certifications in nutrition, neuroscience, sports therapy, and sports psychology. To deepen my understanding of the physical demands many clients face, I have also undertaken specialised training with the British Action Academy, gaining valuable insight into the rigours of action and stunt training so often undertaken by my clients.
Holistic, Narrative-Driven Results Focussed Approach to Actor Preparation
I combine this diverse knowledge with a holistic, narrative-driven approach, collaborating closely with actors, directors, stunt teams, hair & makeup, costume, medical, and catering departments, to create role-specific, functional programs that meet the high demands of film, television, and stage and deliver results safely, effectively and on time.
Assessment and Tailored Service for Personal Training and Online Programs
Every program begins with a thorough assessment of movement ability, lifestyle, body composition, sleep quality, and nutrition. This foundation enables me to design bespoke protocols focused on helping clients move better, look sharper, feel better, and perform at their peak safely and sustainably whether in person or online, in the gym, on set or away on location.
