"I initially contacted Lewis around 6/7 months ago after having a number of hip surgeries that left me with continued hip & knee pain, I was recommended by a friend due to his specialism in biomechanics which I knew is what I needed to focus on.
Lewis’s knowledge is second to none, not only has he helped me to get out of pain & get back to doing numerous activities that I hadn’t been able to do for years, he has also been able to help and advise me as a mentor with my own clients due to working in a similar area.
Lewis’s level of detail & understanding is invaluable to me and I will be continuing to see him periodically as I continue getting back to more sports and activities!
His coaching is highly specific to each individual and you never feel you are given something ‘generic’, he is also brilliant at making sure you understand WHY each movement is being done and what the benefit is.
Highly recommend Lewis to anyone who is fed up of ‘normal’ physiotherapy and actually wants to see RESULTS that get you back to moving, living & progressing - not just being told to rest & ice endlessly"

Testimonials
"I am fortunate that I have known Lewis for a long time and I have seen him evolve his approach and build a pain free community. Lewis is an excellent coach and extremely knowledgeable with excellent interpersonal skills. I started working with Lewis after experiencing lots of pain in my lower back, knees and ankles which was caused by years of mis-management and treatment. This affected my quality of life to the point where I couldn't exercise or play football anymore. Even running short distances and bearing small amounts of weight in daily life, like a backpack, caused me pain. After a number of sessions my pain started to clear up and I slowly began running again, in August 2024 I ran 5km without pain for the first time in around 5 years. My quality of life has improved and I'm more active and have returned to my old self. I know I can continuously work with Lewis on an ongoing basis to improve and manage pain, I'll simply never trust a traditional PT, sports therapist or chiropractor again. If you are experiencing pain and want to improve your quality of life then look no further with Lewis. He also has a variety of ways you can train with him and flexible rates and payments to fit everyone - it's worth every penny anyway since you will save money on further treatments. Being active again has been life changing for me and this is all because of Lewis' knowledge & approach"
"I had been experiencing knee pain for around a year and a half, I’d tried physiotherapy, a chiropractic course and even had an MRI saying I’ve got a bakers cyst which would need an operation to drain the fluid.
I was experiencing lots of pain which limited my every day, walking to work, standing up for more than an hour, the way I sat and I had to stop running. I was experiencing pain every day and started wearing a knee support and went through deep heat like it was going out of fashion!
After working with Lewis for 3 months, my pain has disappeared, I’ve started running again and I’ve said no to surgery! I can’t believe how different my life is now, being pain-free. It’s given to me more confidence and knowledge at the gym, I enjoy working out and seeing a difference in my mental and physical health.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate your help and sharing your knowledge with me so I could heal"
“As a physiotherapist it is hard to find a trainer that I like to work with. With Lewis I not only train hard and see the benefits but can debate biomechanics, swap techniques and learn from him.
He is a fountain of knowledge, his approach is cutting edge and his understanding of the body is spot on.
Both my husband and I have had excellent results by mixing up our training regimes to better target problem areas, helping reduce pain, posture and tension.
You even learn a new lingo and will using the words ‘met head’ and ‘innominate’ over your breakfast before you know it - haha”
“Lewis has introduced to me a new way of training, one that focuses on better movement and pain avoidance/removal. It’s been a revelation. This sounds dramatic but the science of training has moved so much in recent years. Unfortunately, I had stayed locked into ways of training introduced to me decades ago (shoulders, chest, arms and legs). I think this is true for many people and it feels safe to stick with what we were taught as youngsters just getting into competitive sport. It’s natural to stay there, doing the same thing. This is what I did, despite having periodic acute bad back pain and chronic aches. Lewis has changed this. He is right on top of the latest science. I have been able to build strength, pain-free, using his bespoke training plan. I feel ready for the next few decades and can strongly recommend trying Lewis’s approach”
"Back in May I was suffering with ITBS or runners knee. After resting, icing it & half hearted strengthening exercises - it kept recurring. Start of July I increased my sessions with Lewis. He gave me some simple but effective exercises to repeat daily at home as well as intensive strength work in the gym. After 2 weeks I started to see results. 4 weeks after I completed 110km in Snowdonia pain free. This August I’ve clocked up over 400km in training & I’ve never felt stronger. My next race will be running across the Grand Canyon 275km, which I’m feeling extremely confident about now.
As an ultra runner you’re prone to injuries, so I used to see a chiropractor regularly. Now, I just see Lewis"
"As a runner frustrated by injuries and making limited progress with conventional Physio’s, working with Lewis has been a huge relief. His knowledge of biomechanics is second to none, his proactive approach builds trust and confidence, while his programmes have made a huge difference to my ability to train without pain. For the first time in years, I’ve completed a half-marathon training block without missing a session, topped off with a PB. Thank you Lewis! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend"
"Incredible results. I had been struggling with ITBS for 4 weeks whilst training for a marathon, unable to run more than 5 minutes and the best advice given was to "rest and ice it". I went to see Lewis with only 10 days until the race, he quickly diagnosed the issue and gave me a plan with exercises to do each day. Lewis was thorough, taking the time to explain why each exercise was important, how it worked and why it would help. Within 3 days I was back to running and by day 10 I finished the marathon. Now I’m running again pain-free. Lewis checked in regularly throughout the whole process. I couldn’t recommend him any more"
"I’d recommend Lewis without any hesitation. His energy, passion and engagement are fantastic.
I’d approached him when I was struggling with some long term knee and shoulder issues – things that had been treated by many physios over the years but not really fixed. Working with Lewis was extraordinary. He quickly assessed the issues, and the progress made in our first hour and then over the first month was amazing, with pain and discomfort quickly eliminated.
Beyond that we’re working together to improve mobility and build strength and the results have been brilliant. The sessions with him are enlightening and enjoyable, and his combination of strength training to improve mobility is such a rewarding way of working. He carefully looks at and listens to what’s going on to adapt the exercises and training on the fly. He’s given me a programme which I can work on to continue improvements between our sessions, and my running, yoga, cycling and strength training have all benefitted.
It’s been amazing to feel the difference Lewis has made over the last three months, and I’m so excited to build on this and feel what might be possible long-term"
"I can't recommend Lewis highly enough. I was suffering from some shoulder pain with certain movements, which was causing me quite a bit of discomfort at night. Lewis gave me a thorough assessment and then worked me through a small group of exercises to open out my shoulder blades and back.
The results were, if I'm honest, incredible. After 1 session, the pain was all but gone. I have a program to follow now as part of my regular training, and I'm extremely happy.
Lewis is one of the nicest people too, and he clearly has a vast amount of background knowledge of physiology. He's friendly, professional, and you're never left in any doubt that he knows what he's talking about.
Seriously, if you're having any aches and pains when moving, or just want more mobility, book a session with Lewis, it's well worth the investment"
"Since I started training with Lewis, changes in both my mind and body have been quite remarkable.
I had quite severe lower back pain around my SI joint, which impacted my work and life 24/7. Through his intelligent strength training and his ever-increasing knowledge, I am now pain-free. Not only that but aesthetically, my body is leaner, stronger and no longer wonky! My workouts are fun and challenging and it certainly doesn’t feel like I’m just doing rehab - huge progress is made each week. Last weekend I completed a 50 mile hike and was completely pain free and full of energy. I am beyond delighted and excited to see the continued progress we make each week. Lewis goes above and beyond what I had expected, he is so supportive at all times and has helped my confidence skyrocket. He is an amazing person and coach and I am forever grateful to him"
"Lewis has a huge knowledge of skeletal structure and the muscular system. Years of investigation by the medical physios, consultants and doctors have never managed to solve my issues with continuous subluxation of my left knee over 35 years. Lewis noticed my limp one day, and after a short chat in the gym I signed up to 8 sessions with him. I'm now totally invested in his exercises and have felt a huge difference in the stability and strength in my knee. In fact, I have never achieved this level before. I will continue to train with Lewis as his training programmes are so progressive - I'm totally addicted"
"My journey to a mobile and pain-free retirement started with my darling wife ‘encouraging’ me to go to to the gym regularly. Having embarked on a simple programme three times per week, I started to notice Lewis putting people through some most curious exercises. Then David joined and over a period of three months I watched in amazement how he progressed, due in part to Lewis’s instruction and also David’s hard work and determination. The final nudge was an article Lewis wrote about the fallacy of static stretching. After a fascinating chat I signed up for an assessment. I had three objectives : to enjoy the gym, to ease pain in my left knee and lower back, and to build up my physique. Four months later, I am happy to report that Lewis has me well on the way to cracking all three objectives. I no longer wake up with an aching lower back, or a stiff knee, even after a game of golf or lots of gardening. My energy levels are up. And I feel inspired to go to the gym three or four times a week. I know I could not have achieved these goals without Lewis’s personalised programme, experienced tuition and encouragement. The gym has now become a regular part of my routine, as opposed to just a monthly bank payment! With my back so much better, my next challenge is to achieve a six-pack by 65"
"I started with Lewis about 4 years after a diagnosis of hip and psoas impingement on the recommendation of some friends. I have had various treatments over the years with limited success and my next option was surgery which I was keen to avoid. I had read a little bit about biomechanics as a growing area of interest in non-surgical/ pharmacological management of muscular-skeletal problems however I was quite sceptical initially and really anxious about making it worse. Lewis was incredibly understanding of this, explained all of his suggestions throughly and within weeks I felt a huge improvement. Day to day activities are much easier, particularly driving which was always really painful. If I do have pain I have a set of really quick exercises to do for immediate relief and videos of the full exercises programme.
Lewis knowledge and passion around biomechanics is amazing, and sessions are balanced with the importance of exercise for general wellness. I would really recommend an assessment for anyone needing physio/ orthopaedic intervention"
"I can’t recommend Lewis enough. Before I began training, I was in constant pain in my back, shoulders, legs and neck. However, since I have began training with Lewis by undergoing intelligent strength training, this pain has diminished almost entirely! My posture, physique and my workout routine has also massively improved too. I am also now in a position where I am able to go out running for long distances and I am moving a lot better and with much more ease since training. I can’t recommend nor thank Lewis enough for how much his training has helped me"
"After feeling let down (and wildly confused) by various chiropractors, physios and PTs, I was so glad to have been recommended Lewis. As a new mum recovering from a difficult birth, I was pretty desperate for some advice on how to get my strength back and manage pain. Lewis approached my issues in such a proactive, knowledgeable way, it gave me the confidence and belief that I would get back to pre-birth fitness and even just through a couple of sessions, alleviated a lot of the pain I had. Having tailored coaching with someone that really understands what your body is going through is literally gold dust! I can't recommend Lewis enough"
"Lewis was recommended to me after I was experiencing persistent knee pain which was limiting my marathon training. After just one session he was able to provide me with just a few small exercises and within a week I was able to run long distances completely pain free. He is extremely knowledgeable in what he does and has been extremely helpful and friendly in and out of the session. Couldn’t recommend him enough"
"Highly recommend Lewis, who I first went to with a symmetry issue which was affecting how I did my job and therefore holding me back.
I noticed big changes/results relatively quickly and felt the communication was also great in between my sessions if any adjustments were needed"
"I was diagnosed with Piriformis syndrome 2 years ago. Despite exercise plans from several Physios, the pain just kept getting worse. I could no longer do the activities I loved. Even walking short distances became too painful. The pain disturbed my sleep. No-one seemed to be able to help. I contacted Lewis as I was curious about his alternative approach. He explained why my Piriformis was causing me so much pain. He explained why my Physio prescribed exercises were not helping and in fact were making me worse. Lewis did a thorough assessment & gave me an exercise plan totally different to anything I had been given before. He went through it in great detail, including foot positions, body weight distribution and arm positions. I was able to contact him at any time with any queries or concerns.
Lewis has managed my expectations from the start. He made it clear that there was no quick fix, that it would take time to get me back to where I was 2 years ago. At each session, he has progressed my program based on his reassessment.
I cannot believe the progress I have made with Lewis. I am pain free most days. The night pain rarely troubles me. I have gone from painfully limping down the road to walking 3 miles a day. Some days I even forget I ever had a problem. Thank you Lewis"
"I would strongly recommend Lewis as a coach. His approach is very different to the usual Personal Trainer and is he extremely effective in sorting out any problems with painful joints and parts of the body.My programme is tailored specifically to me and he truly has worked wonders. I developed a very painful elbow, which was impacting quite severely on my everyday life. With his considered approach, all pain has disappeared and I have full mobility again. My programme is changed regularly and keeps me motivated. Lewis is keen to keep up to date with the latest developments in his field and he is extremely knowledgeable. If you want a body that is pain free, sign up to a block of sessions... He will definitely change your life for the better"
"The magic of universal synchronicities brought Lewis to my Facebook newsfeed. I don’t trust too many people with ‘me’- but I trusted the synchronicity - and I am so glad that I did. Via Zoom - he has created a series of bespoke workouts for me - improving my strength and mobility and most importantly decreasing the pain in my knees. His artistry, skill and finesse is second to none, he holds an incredibly safe and supportive space and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him. So thankful for our sessions and the benefits they are bringing to my daily life"
“I started training with Lewis 10 months ago as I suffered from knee pain and subsequently hadn’t been able to run for over a year and had lost motivation for the gym as I had no idea what I should or shouldn’t be doing.
Through intelligent strength training, I am able to train regularly and most importantly pain-free! Lewis listens to what I want from a training programme and makes it effective and most importantly achievable with the juggle of the children/work/life balance! Highly recommend training with Lewis”
"Lewis has managed to sort an on going achilles issue very quickly. As keen runner I thought it was just something I was stuck with after seeing other people to no avail"
"Had my first session with a painful right hand from climbing that had been troubling me for a couple of months. By the end of my first session it was gone. I've become much stronger and more flexible and really can't recommend enough. After I completed my first run since I started training with Lewis, I could not believe the difference! I didn't know how much I was fighting my own body before. Thanks so much"
"Lucky enough to have trained with Lewis and without a doubt the best coach I have ever worked with. What makes him stand out is his knowledge and understanding of how the human body works (movement, strength, biomechanics). He has help me identify why certain movements cause pain and then put in place activities to help remove. Can't recommend enough"
"There’s a huge difference between a personal trainer and someone as knowledgable as Lewis. My expectations are well managed and my body is aesthetically better than ever. Training has become a part of my life that I enjoy immensely. The support in our one to one sessions and online from Lewis are second to none; informative, detailed and encouraging always. Lewis is very intelligent and his coaching is another level to what I have experienced prior. I’ve learned so much and I feel great - no regrets at all in choosing Lewis Robinson for my coaching"
"I saw results almost immediately and today, over a year on, I'm unrecognisable, ever-changing and continuing to head towards the shape of my life. I'm both mentally and physically stronger as a result of Lewis's coaching. He's helped me achieve what I've been trying to achieve alone for years and is absolutely right when he says change is challenging. Lewis told me to trust the process and within that trust, goals I'd dreamed about for decades are continuing to become reality. I cannot recommend Lewis enough, he is life changing"
"When I first met Lewis I had chronic shoulder pain and plantar fasciitis. With his specialised knowledge of biomechanics - Lewis has completely transformed an almost continuously painful shoulder to a completely pain-free one, alongside clearing up the symptoms in my foot. This was all whilst strength training in the gym. I would not hesitate to recommend Lewis, he is personable, motivating and really knows his stuff"
"Lewis is wonderful for me! I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis over 20 years ago and never had the confidence to go to the gym. Also, I thought exercise and the gym would make me worse. Lewis changed all that for me, he gave me the confidence to train and has reduced my aches and pains to almost zero.
I still get some very occasional pain in my knee where I had my total knee replacement. There are times where I go to the gym to see Lewis with some discomfort in my knee - but by the time I leave I have zero pain. I now look forward to my gym sessions, even though I am nearly 60. Lewis made a huge difference to me with confidence on what I can do exercise wise and reducing aches and pains. I highly recommend Lewis"
"Tore both cartilages in my left knee and could barely negotiate stairs having to do them one at a time both up and down. Decided to talk to Lewis and after a few sessions with him I was walking much better as well as being able to walk (all be it slowly) up and down stairs normally. Continued with the sessions and improved considerably in a short space of time so much so I am now back playing golf, which was my goal ever since my injury. He is very caring and genuinely wants to help. Brilliant guy and very knowledgeable about the body so would definitely recommend Lewis to anyone with a physical problem. In fact have already recommended a number of friends"
"Was really struggling with constant back and knee pain before starting with Lewis.
After one block of eight sessions the results truly surprised me, my knee pain vanished and my back pain now doesn’t stop me from doing anything I want to do! Lewis’ attention to detail is amazing and the fact he builds your lifestyle and job into your program makes it so easy to stay motivated and see results. I honestly cannot recommend enough"
"For someone like myself who found going to the gym unaspiring but necessary, I am amazed that through Lewis’s enthusiasm, expertise and motivation, which he consistently delivers, I actually now love training. Lewis took time to thoroughly assess my body, then created a training programme which has delivered mind-blowing results. Well thought out and never boring, each session is fun and fulfilling. I would highly recommend Lewis to anyone who wishes to improve their body and diminish any pain they may have, irrespective of the starting point; Lewis has the knowledge and experience to help achieve it"
"I came to Lewis as I suffered with chronic pain in my back, hips and knee. I have now been training with him for 4 weeks and I now live and train pain free. I have tried many different services to improve my pain and none have worked before, so I am so impressed that in 4 weeks I can continue to do all the things I love but without pain. Lewis is also very attentive, passionate and professional in his job and that transfers in the amazing results he gets with his clients. I would recommend him to anyone looking to improve pain, mobility and also aesthetics"
"In 2018, as a 62-year old, contemplating joining a gym I was held back by my negative body image and the idea I would be out-of-place. Lewis believed in me. I guess subconsciously I then believed that I could succeed in a gym. And I think I have, and with Lewis’s continuing help, will achieve more of my goals. So, I now stand straighter, my chronic shoulder pain and knee pain has diminished, my back is not rounded and I am stronger. I have a more positive body image. I can even run and cycle long distances if I want to - pain free. Thank you Lewis for your part in this"
