I had a PT session with Jorge recently and it was a great experience. He was extremely helpful in offering advice on how to adjust my lifts so I could get the best results, as well as highlighting ways to strengthen areas that needed focusing on. He was very patient and knowledgeable, and I’d recommend anybody wanting to improve their lifting skills to go in for a session

I did not expect to love this program so much! Jorge and Emily put me at ease immediately, making sure I could learn while being inspired and motivated to push myself. Best yet, I’ve dropped a dress size in just a few weeks. I can’t recommend them enough!

I love this gym. Jorge and Emily are such nice people and they genuinely love helping people to reach their fitness goal, whatever it may be. They won't try to subscribe you to any program. If you just want to show up and enjoy the class, the classes are very good by the way, they are just happy to see you there and would just make sure you do the exercises with the right technique. They also listen to feedbacks from members and implement changes to make the gym better.The members here are all very friendly and encouraged you to push yourself. Every class feels very much like just a bunch of friends who just enjoy exercising.I highly recommend this gym.

I started personal training with Jorge several months ago. I'm in my late 30s and had never stepped inside a gym before. As someone in the healthcare field I knew better but the embarrassment associated with poor fitness becomes a barrier in itself. I reached out to The Lift Department with a great deal of trepidation. However, Jorge and Emily were thoroughly professional, kind, and welcoming.When I did start training I realized how much I hate it. I hate every second of every minute in the hour long session that is spent lifting weights. My favourite part of the entire session is when I shake Jorge's hand on my way out. But I still keep going back and doing it because Jorge and Emily offer an environment that is friendly, familial even, and always non-judgemental. So for anyone new to this journey or starting over, I would recommend The Lift Department a thousand times!

I joined TLD in March this year, and it’s honestly been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From day one, the coaches made me feel welcome, supported, and encouraged. They truly care about every member, not just our fitness goals but also our overall wellbeing. It feels less like a gym and more like a family — the kind of place where you’re always cheered on and pushed to be your best.Since starting, I’ve become stronger, fitter, and so much happier. The atmosphere is positive, motivating, and full of genuine connection. I never thought I’d look forward to training this much, but now it’s one of the highlights of my week.If you’re looking for a place with incredible coaching, real community, and results that go beyond just fitness, this is it!

My partner does the classes at The Lift Dept and told me to see Jorge since I wanted to improve my lifting. I did two PT sessions with him and we basically rebuilt my squat and deadlift from the ground up. He showed me how to breathe and brace properly and tie it all together, which made a huge difference. He even sent me summaries afterwards so I knew exactly what to keep working on. Definitely recommend him if you want to fine-tune your lifts and take them up a level!

Having never done any weight lifting before, I was nervous to begin but I can honestly say that it has been such an empowering experience. In both pt sessions and group classes, I learnt proper form and feel so much more confident to continue with this type of training. Both Jorge and Emily hold a wealth of knowledge and the gym has a genuine community atmosphere. Highly recommend!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I always have such a great experience training here. The trainers are knowledgeable, supportive, and really take the time to understand your goals, push you in the right way and always asking you to give more during training! The workouts are always challenging but enjoyable, and I’ve noticed real results both in strength and fitness and it’s going to help me live longer looking my best.The atmosphere is motivating, positive, and welcoming – you never feel out of place, no matter your fitness level. Highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for personal training that actually delivers results.

Joined up in February and in terms of raw numbers I've lost 6 kilos, put 40 kilos on my deadlift, 20 kilos on my squat and 10 kilos on my bench press. TLD is great for those like me who struggle with programming training, as the programs at TLD are excellent and you just need to show up and do them. Jorge and Emily are fabulous trainers with great technical knowledge and will push you exactly as hard as you need in order to achieve results. The group class aspect also means that there is a strong community, there to both celebrate your wins as well as commiserate mid workout. All in all I cannot recommend TLD highly enough.

I highly recommend The Lift Dept.. I went from being someone who hated exercise to showing up 5 days a week and it’s been a year now. Honestly, I’ve never felt better.The environment here is incredibly motivating without being intimidating. Jorge and Emily are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely care about your progress. The vibe is always positive, and it’s clear that they’ve built a strong community.If you're on the fence about getting into fitness or looking for a gym that makes it easy to stay consistent, this is the place. It completely changed my relationship with exercise, nutrition, and myself. I’m so glad i did it. Thank you for changing my life. Love you guys.

Love TLD! Friendly coaches, diverse programs, and the perfect support for my postpartum journey. Couldn’t ask for a better place to train!

Though I am just starting off on my weight loss journey, I already feel light and confident and energetic. I have never missed going to the Gym before 🙄😁. The food plans practical and working well, Jorge and Emily are lovely, the gym classes are very amazing. Already seeing gains. Can't wait to loss weight, gain strength and write a better longer review in a few months time. Cheers. God bless.

Exceptional knowledge on training, lifting formations and functionality. Their nutritional team is ideal for an elite athlete but accessible to the working class. Phenomenal support throughout. Do not be fooled by the size of the facility, this place becomes like home if you let it

I’ve tried many different gyms, classes, online workouts and Lift Dept Bexley is by far my favourite one. Theres so many good things about this gym; the trainers are amazing - Jorge is a legend; friendly, knowledgable & hilarious and Emily is the best; supportive, encouraging & kind.The class structure is great; a great mix of steady, heavy weights and then conditioning and cardio to push to your limits.I’m lifting weights I never thought I’d go near & it gives me such a sense of pride.And of course there’s the people. The people are cherry on the top - friendly & welcoming, and such cheerleaders. Everyone pushes each other & cheers each other on like no other gym I’ve seen. It also helps that they’re bloody hilarious. If you’re in the area & looking for a gym, I couldn’t recommend this more!

This gym has truly transformed my approach to fitness, and that’s largely thanks to Jorge and Emily from the Lift department. Their ongoing support made my weight loss journey not only possible but sustainable.
