Personal Training in Solihull
Personal training in our bespoke Earlswood gym, with a programme built around your goals, your starting point and your availability.
Personal training at Ascension Physiotherapy & Performance is led by Oli Lowe, a UKSCA accredited Strength & Conditioning Coach who currently works with players at Birmingham City FC. Whether you want to build strength, lose weight, improve your fitness or simply feel healthier and more confident, your sessions are planned around you rather than a generic template.
You do not need to be an athlete, or already fit, to get started. We coach beginners, busy professionals and experienced gym goers alike at our clinic in Earlswood, Solihull, where physiotherapy and sports massage are available under the same roof.
Personal training built around your goals
Every programme starts with a conversation about what you want to achieve, your training history, any injuries and how much time you realistically have. From there, sessions are designed to be challenging but achievable, building on each other week by week.
Coaching is built on evidence-based programming, with performance technology used where it helps. The aim is not just to get you through a hard workout but to help you understand how to train well, so the progress you make lasts.
Alongside your sessions, you will receive exercise and nutrition guidance as part of a holistic approach to long-term results.
What personal training can help with
People come to us with all kinds of goals. Some of the most common are:
If you are currently injured or in pain, it can help to start with an assessment from our physiotherapists in Solihull. Because our physiotherapy and performance teams work under one roof, your training can pick up where your rehabilitation leaves off.

Why choose Ascension for personal training?
Personal training questions
Do I need to be fit to start personal training?
No. Your programme is built around your current fitness level, so you can start from wherever you are. We work with complete beginners as well as experienced gym goers and athletes.
Can personal training help me lose weight?
Weight loss is one of the most common goals we help people work towards. Your coach will combine a structured training programme with exercise and nutrition guidance, with the focus on sustainable habits rather than quick fixes. Everyone is different, so we set realistic goals with you from the start.
Can I have personal training if I have an injury?
Often, yes. Tell us about any injuries or medical conditions before you start so your sessions can be planned safely. If you have a new or ongoing injury, we may suggest an assessment with our physiotherapy team first, so your training and rehabilitation work together.
What is the difference between personal training and strength and conditioning?
Personal training focuses on your own health and fitness goals, such as getting stronger, losing weight or improving general fitness. Strength and conditioning is more performance focused, preparing athletes for the physical demands of their sport. If you are training for a sport, our strength and conditioning service may be a better fit.

Personal training sessions are arranged directly with Oli, so the best first step is to contact us, email Info@ascension-pp.com or call 01564 637 358 to talk through your goals and availability.
