Lauren Hayward 12 months ago

I recently signed up for online personal training with Stuart at Health by Science Personal Training Edinburgh, and I couldn't be happier with the results! I wanted to get in the best shape possible for my holiday in Ibiza, and Stuart provided me with a comprehensive nutrition plan and a tailored gym programme that targeted my specific needs. His expertise and support were invaluable, and I appreciated how he always made himself available to answer my questions and offer encouragement. Thanks to Stuart, I feel confident, strong, and ready to enjoy my holiday to the fullest! Highly recommend his services to anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals.

Have been taking training sessions with Yasemin for the past 8 months to achieve greater strength, balance and overall fitness to support my exercise activities. It has been a real joy and pleasure to work with Yasemin who has the right knowledge and expertise as well as her being a thoroughly lovely person too. My sessions have proved very informative and I have particularly enjoyed the variety and incremental training aspects moving ahead at my own pace. I would recommend Health by Science for Personal Training.

With my wedding less than a year away, I decided I wanted to look and feel better. It wasn't just about a superficial change (although that was a goal); I also aimed to increase my strength and generally be a lot fitter.

After signing up for a personal training package, I started with small changes in nutrition along with a structured gym programme from Ross. This programme felt different to any other programme I’ve used before, where tracking calories, macros and weight (which I can get obsessive over!!) was not a priority… consistency was.

It wasn't long before I started fitting into clothes I’ve not been able to wear for a long time. My body was toning up and I was becoming a stronger, healthier version of me. My friends also began commenting on my weight loss too, which felt great! Alongside this, I saw an increase in my strength; managing to add 40kg to my deadlift, perform full press-ups, and include an additional 30kg to my split squat. This boost in performance also helped me return to playing netball weekly, which I absolutely love!

How It Works: Your Journey to Science-Backed Results

Your path to optimal health and performance begins with a structured, science-backed process designed to deliver lasting results.

Step 1: Understanding Your Goals

Your journey starts with a free initial consultation where we prioritize listening to fully understand your unique aspirations. Whether your goal is to look better, feel stronger, or perform at your peak – or all three – we listen intently to grasp your specific objectives.

Step 2: Holistic Health Assessment

We then delve deeper, asking a series of targeted questions using a comprehensive biopsychosocial approach. This allows us to explore the three fundamental pillars of your health: movement, nutrition, and recovery (encompassing sleep and stress). Through this holistic lens, we identify what’s currently working well for you and, crucially, where your primary barriers lie.

Step 3: The Movement Health Check

Following this in-depth discussion, we conduct our signature Movement Health Check. This isn’t just a generic assessment; it’s a data-driven fitness analysis that allows us to objectively evaluate your key movement patterns, strength and cardiovascular health. We meticulously compare your current physical state against science-based normative values, providing a clear picture of how far you are from your optimal fittness and healthy potential. You can read more about our Movement Health Check here.

Step 4: Personalised Strategy Development

With this comprehensive understanding, we sit down with you to craft a precise, evidence-based programming strategy. We outline a clear roadmap for how you can achieve your specific goals and establish realistic timeframes for your physiological adaptation and progress.

Step 5: Nutritional Insight

To ensure a truly holistic and sustainable transformation, we then ask you to complete a food diary. This provides invaluable insight into your current nutritional science landscape, allowing us to identify existing patterns and pinpoint the specific changes needed.

Step 6: Sustainable Habit Integration

Depending on your individual history, lifestyle, goals, and preferences, we then implement a habit-based approach. This method focuses on sustainable, incremental changes, ensuring that you achieve your goals both quickly and sustainably, fostering long-term metabolic conditioning and overall well-being. Our approach also integrates injury prevention protocols and principles of neuromuscular efficiency to safeguard your progress and ensure safe, effective training. This is all part of our commitment to evidence-informed practice, guiding you every step of the way.

2 sessions per week: £52.50 per session (£420 per month)

What affects Personal Training prices?

Location: Cities like Edinburgh generally sit mid-range compared to London (£50–£150 per session) and other parts of the UK (£20–£70 per session).

Experience & qualifications: At Health by Science, all our coaches are highly qualified Personal Trainers, many dual-qualified in Physiotherapy, ensuring expert guidance.

Specialisation: We offer expertise in injury rehab, physiotherapy, fat loss, strength training, and long-term health coaching — which may not always be reflected in cheaper generic personal training options.

Package value: Our monthly packages include not only in-person training, but also full programme design, nutrition coaching, and sleep & stress management.

Online coaching: Starts from £60 per month for those who want flexibility with expert support.

We aim to give you the best value by combining expert coaching, accountability, and real long-term results — not just hour-by-hour sessions.
Is 2 Personal Training sessions a week enough?
The ideal number of sessions depends on your goals, experience, and how much training you’re doing outside of your PT sessions. At Health by Science, we help you find the right balance based on your lifestyle and long-term goals:

Beginners: 2–3 sessions per week is often ideal to build confidence, learn proper technique, and create consistent habits.

Intermediate or Advanced: 1–2 sessions per week works well for ongoing progression, accountability, refining technique, or addressing specific goals, especially if you’re following a structured programme between sessions.

Fat loss and body composition: 2–4 sessions per week can provide the structure, support and intensity needed, particularly when combined with a personalised nutrition plan and independent workouts.

Every client receives a tailored programme to follow between sessions if they wish, ensuring you’re progressing even outside your PT sessions — whether you’re training at home or at the gym.
Is it worth paying for a Personal Trainer?
For many people, yes — personal training can make a huge difference, especially when time and consistency are the biggest challenges. At Health by Science, you’re not just paying for a workout — you’re investing in a complete, evidence-based approach to your long-term health and fitness:

Tailored Programmes: Every programme is built specifically for your goals, fitness level, and lifestyle — far more effective than following generic online plans.

Expert Coaching: All our coaches are highly qualified Personal Trainers, many with dual qualifications in Physiotherapy, ensuring you learn correct technique, stay injury-free, and maximise every session.

Accountability & Motivation: Regular sessions help keep you on track, provide ongoing motivation, and ensure you stay consistent even when life gets busy.

Faster, Sustainable Results: With expert guidance, you’re more likely to make progress quickly — and maintain it.

Nutrition Coaching: We provide support on nutrition habits to complement your training, without extreme diets or unsustainable plans.

Breaking Plateaus: If you’ve struggled to make progress in the past, we’ll adjust your programme and approach to keep you improving.

Ultimately, personal training gives you a structured, science-backed plan with expert support — helping you make the most of your time, avoid wasted effort, and achieve long-term, meaningful results.
What Do Personal Trainers Do Exactly?
At Health by Science, our Personal Trainers do far more than just supervise workouts. We take a full 360° approach to your health and fitness:

Assess: We start with a movement assessment to understand your current fitness level, mobility, injuries, and goals.

Plan: We design a fully personalised programme tailored to your body, lifestyle, and objectives — whether that’s fat loss, strength, injury rehab or long-term health.

Coach: We teach proper form and technique to ensure every exercise is safe, effective, and suited to your ability.

Motivate: We provide accountability, support, and coaching to help you stay consistent even when life gets busy.

Track Progress: We monitor your results and adjust your plan as needed to keep you progressing.

Support: We offer guidance on nutrition, sleep, stress management and habit-building to maximise your results beyond the gym.

Ultimately, we help you get the biggest health return for the time you’re able to invest — safely, efficiently, and sustainably.
Do You Provide Personal Training for Pregnancy?
Yes — at Health by Science we offer safe, evidence-based Personal Training for pregnancy and postnatal recovery. Our coaches are trained to adapt programmes for every stage of pregnancy, helping you:

Stay active safely throughout pregnancy.

Manage common issues like back pain, pelvic discomfort, or fatigue.

Maintain strength, mobility and cardiovascular fitness to support labour and recovery.

Build confidence with movements that are appropriate for you and your baby.

Receive guidance on exercise modifications, core and pelvic floor work, and postnatal return-to-exercise planning.

Whether you’re staying active during pregnancy or rebuilding strength postnatally, we’ll work closely with you to ensure your training is safe, effective, and tailored to how you’re feeling each week.
What Does a Personal Training Plan Include?
At Health by Science, your Personal Training plan is much more than just a workout schedule. Every plan is built around your individual goals, lifestyle and needs, and typically includes:

Movement Assessment: A full assessment to identify strengths, weaknesses, mobility issues or injury risks.

Personalised Programme Design: Tailored strength, fitness and mobility programming specific to your goals.

Nutrition Coaching: Support to build sustainable eating habits, whether your focus is fat loss, muscle gain or long-term health.

Sleep and Stress Coaching: Simple strategies to improve recovery, energy and overall wellbeing.

Regular Progress Tracking: Ongoing assessments to track your strength, body composition, and fitness improvements.

Accountability & Support: Continuous guidance to keep you on track, adjust your plan when life changes, and help you stay consistent.

We take a complete, evidence-based approach to help you achieve sustainable results — whether you’re training in-person or online.
Do I Need a Personal Trainer with a Gym?
A gym membership gives you access to equipment — but equipment alone doesn’t guarantee progress. A Personal Trainer helps you get the most out of the time you’re spending in the gym by:

Designing a personalised programme that fits your goals, schedule, and fitness level.

Teaching proper technique to reduce injury risk and ensure you’re using equipment correctly.

Providing accountability and motivation to help you stay consistent.

Adjusting your programme as you progress to avoid plateaus.

Supporting you with nutrition, sleep, and recovery habits that complement your training.

Many of our clients have access to a gym but work with us to ensure that every session counts, maximise their results, and fit training around busy work and family commitments.
How to Find Personal Training Near Me?
When looking for Personal Training, it’s important to find a coach or team that fits your goals, experience, and lifestyle. Here’s what to look for:

Qualifications & Expertise: Look for trainers with recognised qualifications. At Health by Science, many of our coaches are dual-qualified Personal Trainers and Physiotherapists.

Personalisation: Make sure your programme is tailored to your specific goals, whether that’s fat loss, strength, injury rehab, or long-term health.

Evidence-Based Approach: Avoid fads and quick fixes — we focus on science-backed training, nutrition, and habit coaching.

Location & Flexibility: We’re based in Edinburgh and also offer online coaching for those who need flexibility.

Support & Accountability: Look for a trainer who offers regular check-ins, clear tracking, and ongoing support — not just one-off workouts.

If you’re based in Edinburgh and want expert, personalised coaching that fits around your busy life, get in touch for a free consultation.
