Barbells are in our DNA

The foundation of our service is London Weightlifting, formerly London Olympic Weightlifting Academy. LOWA was founded in 2014 by Mike Causer to bring fast paced group training to those who wanted to focus on the Olympic lifts - the snatch and clean & jerk. In 2023, Mikey Glenn took on ownership of the gym after cutting his teeth as a coach at the gym.

These days we’re much more than a Weightlifting club, offering conditioning extending to CrossFit and Hyrox classes, but strength training is always at the heart of what we do. We take no shame in the fact that we bias strength training and believe it helps any training modality out there!

At London Weightlifting S&C, we are committed to building stronger, more capable individuals through expert coaching, smart programming, and a supportive training environment. We believe strength is for everyone—whether you're a competitive athlete or just starting your journey. Our mission is to provide world-class coaching, a community that drives progress, and a no-nonsense approach to training that delivers real results.
