Founded in 1928, Physical Culture Gym is one of the UK’s longest-running strength training facilities, with nearly a century of lifting heritage. From its early days as a hub for traditional strength training to becoming one of the most respected powerlifting gyms in the country, our legacy is built on uncompromising standards, expert coaching, and a true passion for strength sports.

Over the decades, world-class lifters, coaches, and fitness pioneers have trained within these walls. We’ve seen generations of athletes build their strength here, from powerlifting champions to everyday lifters dedicated to improving their performance.

Built on true lifting culture, we offer expert powerlifting coaching, competition-standard racks, calibrated plates, speciality bars, strongman equipment, and everything you need to push your limits.
