About Us - Steels Fitness

Created & designed by Claire Steels, STEELS FITNESS is a fitness company that is dedicated to helping you make fitness a sustainable part of your life, using workouts, training plans and retreats to build knowledge and confidence.

Claire has worked in the fitness industry for 10 years and has been an athlete for most of her life, which has lead her to develop a performance focused approach to her personal training her Personal Training with clients and as a respected coach. It’s an approach that participants have appreciated – Athleticism over aesthetics.

This performance driven approach, combined with her knowledge and experience enabled Claire to reach AG World Champion status less than a year after buying her first bike. After 3 years as a duathlete Claire decided to focus on cycling as an individual sport and after 2 years of training and racing in the British domestic scene she is now racing in the Women’s World Tour on a UCI team.

Claire has applied this approach to all of the workouts and training programmes across the site. These can both be found in the fitness section on the main menu. Bespoke 1:1 and online training packages are also available.

On top of online training Claire also organises and delivers fitness and cycling retreats from the stunning island of Mallorca.

Testimonials

Personal Training

1:1 Training

"I started seeing Claire after feeling I needed more direction with my training and having set myself the goal of running a half marathon. I thought I was already fairly fit having regularly attended group exercise classes such as spinning, body pump and body combat; I was in for a surprise! After assessing my fitness level and discussing my current diet - too much toast and chocolate! - Claire provided me with a nutrition plan and set me weekly training programmes tailored to my fitness level and goals. For me one of the key benefits of my PT sessions with Claire was that for the first time I had someone demonstrating and explaining proper technique and observing and correcting my form where necessary to ensure I was getting the most out of each exercise and avoiding injury."

Cycling Retreat

An amazing experience

"This lady is strong as steel, heart of gold and encourages the fighting spirit out of you, even when you’d rather stop off for a coffee! The best of a professional cyclist with the appreciation of a novice for those dipping their toes into the world of cycling and triathlon!"

Online Training

A seamless transition

"I recently moved to online training with Claire and the professionalism and quality of training has not changed. The training programmes are always clear and well explained and if I have any questions I know Claire is on hand to address these. I now feel fitter and stronger than before which is thanks to Claire's expert knowledge, enthusiasm and encouragement. Thank you Claire!"

Cycling Retreat

Highly Motivational

“I cannot recommend Steels Fitness enough, Claire is an inspirational leader, both in her rides and in life. She has the amazing ability to reach every level of rider, from a novice (like me!) to smashing it on the climbs with the professionals, and to get them to be their best.

For me, whenever I ride with Claire, I come away not only with a sense of achievement but also of confidence and that is purely down to her level headed and friendly approach. I am so very lucky to have met her; everyone needs Claire in their lives. I will be back!"

21 Day Challenge

"Im loving going back to revisit the session! But love love the mobility and core sessions I use these at lest 3 times a week and finding them really beneficial" Lizzie R

21 Day Challenge

"I love my daily different challenges! I think you have done a grand job of keeping it totally different every day. The videos are very well put together and each exercises is clearly explained and demonstrated. Looking forward to seeing what tomorrow brings!" Hannah. F

21 Day Challenge: Stage 2

"I have just caught up with yesterday's session. I can confirm I was sweating like crazy but loved every minute"

Zoom PT Sessions

' I approached Claire in March to help me with cycling specific S&C to gain some strength for road racing. Claire is really knowledgeable and friendly, she keeps me really motivated in the sessions and I've gone from dreading S&C work to really looking forward to it! Though PT sessions on zoom she helps me work on my form to prevent injury and checks that I'm using the rights weights to progress properly. I've noticed that I feel more solid on the bike, with a smoother pedal stroke. I also used to lose power a bit when the gradient really kicked up on the climbs but now it's quite the opposite. I can't wait to test it out on some proper races.' Olivia Bentley

Online Zoom PT

'The most challenging but satisfying training I have ever done. A perfect mix of strength and cardio training with a lot of laughter thrown in. Claire provides a great balance between helping you to achieve your potential and allowing you to push more. Phenomenal motivation and the most approachable fitness coach; anyone would feel comfortable training with her. Whatever your fitness levels, whatever you want to work on, Steels is the coach for you.' Justine Smalley

Online Zoom PT

' I really enjoyed this mornings session. It was so helpful to go through mobility, technique and learning to engage the muscles before adding weights in. I learnt so much in the first session. This is why I chose a good PT. Looking forward to the next sessions!' Dani Forshaw
