Small Group Personal Training • Crosby
Personal training for real people who want to feel stronger, healthier and more confident — without having to figure it all out themselves.
Never stepped foot in a gym before? You're welcome here.
The Training Matrix
You shouldn't have to keep up with someone who's been training for ten years. Pick the coaching that meets you where you are — we'll help you choose if you're not sure.
01Your coach, your programme, your goals. Fully private sessions built entirely around you — the fastest, most focused route to real change.
02All the coaching of 1:1, shared with a small group who've got your back. Maximum 8 per group, so you still get coached. Two programmes — BASE for beginners and BUILD to keep progressing.
03Fun, structured classes that build confidence, coordination and a love of moving. The healthy habits that last a lifetime start here.

After-school sessions twice a week for our junior crew. Spaces are limited, so book ahead to save your place.
The Crew42 Method
Walking into a gym can be daunting — especially when you don't know what to do. That's why Crew42 is different. You get a programme, accountability and a real community. You never have to figure it out alone.
A coach who knows your name, your goals and what you're capable of. Every session is programmed, not improvised.
Calorie and protein targets built around your life — not a crash diet. Sustainable habits you can actually keep.
Progress reviews, check-ins and a coach in your corner. Progress doesn't rely on motivation alone.
We track what matters so you can see it working — beyond the number on the scales.
Real Members. Real Progress.
Lose body fat. Build muscle. Get stronger. Move better. Feel more confident. Whatever progress looks like for you, we'll help you work towards it — here are just some of the people who've done exactly that.
"I'd never trained consistently before. The coaching and the crew are what made it stick."

"Small group PT kept me accountable. I actually look forward to training now."
Small Group PT
"I'm a stronger me."
That's what it's really about. Not a number on a set of scales — feeling stronger, healthier and more confident in your own skin. It's why we do what we do.

Real words from real members — the people who show up, put the work in and get the results.
"This gym really changed my perspective on exercise. Making the gym environment welcoming to any and all abilities and a fun and enjoyable place to be. I could not recommend the classes more with a wide range from fun interactive classes to high intensity sessions. This gym is a great place to start or continue a fitness journey with helpful and supportive coaches there to help."
"Great gym and team, loving my workouts — feel full of energy."
"I got off to a tricky start with a minor car accident just after joining. In the past I would have used it as an excuse to give up there and then, but the team are so supportive — especially Michelle — getting me motivated to come in. I never thought I'd be that person to get up at 5am for the gym, yet here we are! Top class training that pushes you but realistically for your abilities, out of class nutritional and motivational support and a brilliant set up, not to mention everyone who goes to the classes — really motivating and supportive. Couldn't ask for any more!"
"The difference I feel in just six weeks has been amazing! I've grown in confidence, feel stronger and healthier, and genuinely enjoy coming to the gym. The small group PT sessions are fantastic — they're supportive, motivating, and give you the attention you need while still being a great team environment. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their fitness and overall wellbeing!"
"I joined the small group PT 6 weeks ago and love it! There is consistency with the training to ensure progression. The right level of motivation from the lovely PTs. Highly recommend."
"I've started with Crew42 6 weeks ago, I am on a 6 week transformation challenge and I'm really enjoying it. I have learned so much — the team are always on hand to guide you through the exercises at your pace. There is a really big feeling of family at the gym which I really like."
Meet The Team
No rotating door of staff and no one counting reps from across the room. You'll be coached by the same people every week — the ones who built this place.
Co-founder & Coach
Michelle launched Crew42 and still coaches the small group sessions herself. With over 12 years' coaching experience, she built the gym around the idea that training has to fit real life — not the other way round.
Co-founder & Coach
Jay joined Michelle shortly after Crew42 opened and has been coaching here for over six years — more than 12 years in total. From Kensington, he runs our one-to-one personal training and coaches the group sessions alongside Michelle. He is a two-time winner of the Fitness Awards for Fitness Instructor.
Coach · Level 3 PT & Sports Massage
Kate is a Level 3 qualified personal trainer and fitness coach, and offers sports massage alongside her coaching. She takes one-to-one personal training for members who want more focused work.
Coach · World's Strongest Woman U23
Millie coaches our Tuesday and Thursday sessions — and competes as the World's Strongest Woman under 23. She brings a serious competitive edge to the coaching floor.
About Crew42
Crew42 is a coaching-led personal training studio in Crosby, on the northern edge of Liverpool. We exist for one reason: to give people in Merseyside a place where training is planned, coached and adjusted around them — not a room full of machines and a key fob.
Whether you train one-to-one, in a small group of like-minded people, or as part of our kids fitness sessions, there is always a coach on the floor who knows your name, your history and your goal. Our members are busy parents, shift workers, runners, teenagers and retirees. What they share is a willingness to turn up and be coached.
Crew42 has been built by two coaches who still coach every week — and who each bring over 12 years' experience to the gym floor. Between them they ran the gym in Liverpool city centre for seven years before relocating to Crosby village in 2026 — bringing the same coaching, and the same crew, with them.
Co-founder & Coach
Michelle launched Crew42 and has been the driving force behind it ever since. She has over 12 years' experience coaching on the gym floor. A busy mum of two young children, she knows first-hand how hard it is to fit training, work and family into one week — and she built the studio around that reality. Sessions here are planned around the life you actually have, not an ideal one. She leads our small group personal training sessions, and it is her standard the rest of the coaching is built around.

Every session is led by a qualified coach who knows your programme, your history and your goal.
Your training is written around your body, your schedule and your experience — then adjusted as you progress.
Group PT is capped at 8 people per session, and we keep the timetable tight so nobody trains without attention.
Your First 6 Weeks at Crew42
Your 42-Day Challenge gives you the training, nutrition, accountability and support you need to build momentum — without crash diets or spending hours in the gym.
The Crew
Every Saturday, our BASE and BUILD members come together to train — and then head for coffee afterwards. Getting healthier is easier when you're surrounded by people doing it with you.
That's the Crew42 difference: real coaching, real programmes, and a community that shows up for each other.
