Our mission is to help you look and feel your best whilst becoming strong enough to tackle everything life throws at you with confidence, resilience and determination.
Our methods are about one thing: Your Journey. Not achieving a universal standard of strength or some preconceived aesthetic ideal, but about becoming the strongest version of you. We'll align your program, coaching and daily actions with your goals as you progress through your journey as a welcome part of a thriving community.
Our expert coaching team is dedicated to helping you achieve your unique strength and wellbeing goals through personalised programming and one-on-one coaching on and off the gym floor working with you to help build autonomy, learning to master the basics and train independently for decades to come. You'll build a stronger, healthier lifestyle that will affect every aspect of your life.
Since 2012 we've helped 5000+ people like you take the guesswork out of strength training. We'll set realistic expectations of progress over different time frames and tailor our approach to meet your evolving needs and aspirations. From your first visit you'll be made to feel welcome and comfortable in our private gym at the mouth of South Belfast and East Belfast, beside St. George's Market right in the heart of the city.

Would really recommend Hench to people at all stages of their fitness journey. The supportive and collaborative coaching style has really helped me on my way to achieving my goals and its been great to see how I'm progressing week on week. There are so many exercise slots to choose from which makes it easy to flex around my work schedule. I've had some issues with a shoulder injury I had prior to joining hench. The coaches have been mindful of this and have tailored a programme for me based around this which has been really beneficial to me. If you're looking for some help on your fitness journey, Hench is the way forward!

Great gym with really knowledgeable and passionate staff. A community of likeminded people, all looking to better themeselves in one way or another. Equally suitable to both the beginner and advanced trainer. Without doubt the best decision I have taken in respect of my health and well-being has been joining Hench. I cannot recommend the place enough.

If you’re looking to change your life, this is the place for you! I joined Hench nearly two years ago. At the time I was desperate for change and knew I needed support, structure and to be educated on how to train properly. I got into the best shape of my life through the encouragement & expertise of the incredible coaches, an amazing safe environment and built such a strong fitness foundation in myself. From there, I got married & got pregnant and I’m still training right up to being 39 weeks pregnant. I wouldn’t be here without my journey at Hench and I know I’ll be stronger for life because of them! Cant wait to see what life will be like for me post baby! I honestly would recommend Hench to everyone that wants to take training seriously, become your best self and achieve goals over a long sustainable period of time!
Based beside St. Georges Market in the centre of Belfast, HENCH is the first and only gym in Belfast to teach strength training in small groups with members following their own personal programme using reserved equipment for each session without queues, sharing or gym hassle.
