Community built strength.
My name is Sam Kenyon and I'm a personal trainer & nutritionist based in Faringdon, Oxfordshire.
My mission as a coach is to get as many people lifting weights as possible so that they can continue to live a fantastic quality of life well into the later years of life by becoming the strongest, most confident version of themselves.
The women I work with are those that have had enough of jumping around their living room doing HIIT workouts and following diets that only leave them feeling hungry and out of energy.
Your Coach.
Working with me is about making a long term commitment to your health and happiness as a priority rather than sacrificing it for a short term result.
Our Location.
Lumen Training is a private, small-group personal training gym and strength training studio.
Based in the Oxfordshire countryside, you can find me at:
Unit 4, Rams Court, Wicklesham Farm, Faringdon, SN7 7PN
A relaxed countryside feel rather than your usual cold industrial estate. How often do you get to go to a gym somewhere so picturesque?
What Our Clients Say.
-
“Sam is a great personal trainer! I take part in the small group sessions but the exercises are still tailored for my needs. Within a few weeks of working with Sam I felt like I had more energy for every day activities, am able to keep up with my toddler and really enjoy lifting weights!”
-
“I have not done weight training before and haven’t been to a gym in years. Sam tailors sessions so they are appropriate, he is very supportive and he is a great coach. The ladies (and gents) I train with are all lovely, and the group sessions actually motivate me to try something I wouldn’t necessarily think I was capable of doing. Highly recommended!”
-
“Prior to working with Sam I had a very negative image of myself and was terrified of being seen in the gym and being judged for being overweight, older or not knowing what I was doing. I just had no motivation to get in and didn’t really know what I should be doing even if I could get myself in!
Having regularly scheduled sessions with Sam has held me accountable to get into the gym and he’s been able to write me a program that helps me achieve my goals whilst still actually being enjoyable to do. I’m learning to not be quite so hard on myself and feel much more comfortable in the gym as a result of working with Sam.”
-
“Sam has helped me tackle my challenges head-on. The structured workouts he plans are great - no more second-guessing if I'm doing the right exercises. And let's be honest, if it were up to me to drag myself to the gym on my own, I'd probably find a million other excuses not to go. Having a dedicated session keeps me accountable and ensures I show up, no matter how busy life is.”
-
“I can't recommend Sam at Lumen Training highly enough. The small group training sessions for women of a certain age are fantastic. The groups are small enough that everyone gets individual attention, with Sam tailoring exercises to suit different abilities, injuries and fitness levels, while still encouraging us to push ourselves and make real progress. Sam is incredibly knowledgeable, patient and motivating. He knows exactly when to encourage you, when to challenge you, and always makes the sessions enjoyable. No two workouts are the same, so there's always something new to keep us engaged.”
