Mem's Weightlifting Club

Fantastic experience: Mem is an incredible trainer. I'm grateful for the time he took, but I can’t recommend him highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Really lovely coaches and gym. Good programming. Love going there

Fantastic experience: Without any doubt, the place to be in London if you're serious about weightlifting.

Fantastic experience: This is going to be a long but honest review. I truly think that this weightllifting club is the best club in London. I have divided my review into sections to give you the reader a good understanding. Coaching - In my opinion, Mehmed's coaching and guidance are one of a kind. The attention to detail is beyond anything else I've seen. The way he breaks down the competition lifts is just amazing, no matter what your ability. If you are a new athlete, Coach Mehmed will adapt the moves based on your ability and will make sure you get the correct technique. He builds up your technique and confidence very well so you can come in and crack on with your session. When he is not a coach, he is a great friend and will always look after his athletes. It is an honour to be coached by him. Gym and Equipment - The platforms are perfect, and the gym rules are clear. The equipment is best money can buy (Eleiko barbells), and athletes are reminded to look after them after their sessions. You should brush your bar and put your plates back. I would also like to add that it is the cleanest gym I've been to. The gyum is so perfect that it makes other gyms look second class. Atmosphere - There are various athletes with different levels of ability, but we all lift together and have a lot of fun during the sessions, but we are also focused and supprotive. The gang at Mehmed's Weightlifting gym is just amazing. 10/10 from me, but Google only lets me give 5 stars. Saeed

Fantastic experience: Really good gym with excellent equipment. If you're looking for coaching, you can't do better than Mem

Fantastic experience: A brilliant club that has staff who have been friendly and kind from very first contact.

Fantastic experience: You won't find a more welcoming experience for ANY ability group of weightlifter in London, and I'd go as far to say abroad too. Both Coach Mehmed and Benedict explain not only how, but why you need to move the body the way it needs to. You won't find a better eye for detail than from individuals who have not only been at the top of their craft, but have studied and worked tirelessly to create a system that is accessible and works in their style. Every session you attend here makes you leave satisfied and wanting more. Worth the journey and every penny. Would give 10 stars out of 5 if I could.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Mem's Weightlifting Club every week since late 2022 and the advice provided is invaluable. I have seen my technique improve each week. Mem is very approachable and his feedback is easy to take on. He does not overcomplicate things. He is also a hands-on coach and it is obvious he cares greatly when helping you improve your weightlifting.

Fantastic experience: Excellent Olympic weightlifting gym ! Everything you need to improve your lifting, from beginners to those that have lifting for years. Mem has a huge passion for what he does and it shows.

Fantastic experience: Mem's Weightlifting Club is an amazing space for Weightlifting. The club is clean, equipment extremely well maintained and the people are so warm and welcoming. There is a wide range of abilities and you feel welcome and supported no matter if you're a veteran or a beginner. Mem's watchful eye will have you snatches and clean and jerks feeling amazing. I love this club, and you will too!

Fantastic experience: Without a shadow of a doubt one of the best places to be if you want to get your weightlifting in check. Mem's club is welcoming to lifters of any abilities and Mehmed will do anything to get you closer to your goals. The facility is spotless, airy and with great equipment. Cannot recommend enough.

Fantastic experience: You will be hard pushed to find a better weightlifting lifting facility or weightlifting coach than here. The best set up and equipment of anywhere I have ever lifted. Mehmed has unlimited patience and a wealth of experience. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I don’t have enough words to talk about how great this coach is. Ive started weightlifting nearly 2 years ago and during the learning phase Mehmed was the only coach around London I found were Ive felt confident and always improve something every day. Definitely recommended!!

Fantastic experience: Mem's Weightlifting Club is the best gym in London to learn Olympic Weightlifting. Mehmed also has impeccable attention to detail when it comes to keeping the environment pristine. Some of the best features about this gym: - Capped class sizes to ensure that Mehmed can give enough attention to each lifter and that the space is safe to lift in / not over-crowded. Some gyms can be dangerous environments to do Olympic weightlifting and this is not one of them. - Platforms are staggered so that you're not facing another person when you lift / making awkward eye contact. - Each platform has 15kg women's and 20kg men's Eleiko barbell. Not only is Eleiko the state-of-the-art when it comes to manufacturing barbells, there are extremely few gyms that have enough women's weightlifting bars, let alone have a single women's bar. In Mehmed's gym, EACH PLATFORM has a women's 15kg barbell available. Each platform also has its dedicated squat rack, fractional plates and plates, collars, so you won't be searching around for what you need. Each platform also has dedicated coat racks, drink/cup holder and seat. The environment is light, spacious and warm. - Pristine shower/toilet facilities. Amenities are provided like shampoo, shower gel, hairdryer, hair bands, cotton pads, women's sanitary products. There is a bidet toilet seat attachment. A mixer tap is available with good pressure, hot water. The electric hand dryer actually dries your hands instead of blowing gently on them. - Real wooden blocks/jerk blocks. - You can drop the weights. - Additional equipment available: dumbbells, bands, technique bars, GHD machine, pull-up rack, benches. What more do you really need? Not to mention that Mehmed is an amazing coach! He will actually teach you proper weightlifting technique instead of letting you lift with bad habits that compound over time.
