About Justin Maker

Strength & Movement Coach | Vitruvian Fitness

Build Strength With Purpose

Vitruvian Fitness was built on a simple idea:

Most people don’t need more workouts — they need better training.

I’m Justin Maker, founder and head coach at Vitruvian Fitness, a private personal training studio based in Plymouth. I specialise in helping people build strength, improve movement, and train with confidence through structured, intelligent coaching.

This isn’t about quick fixes or chasing exhaustion.
It’s about building a body that performs, lasts, and adapts to real life.

Build Strength With Purpose

Most personal training focuses on doing more.

I focus on doing things properly.

At Vitruvian Fitness, every client follows a structured approach built around:

Movement First

Strength is built on good mechanics. We focus on how you move before how much you lift.

Strength as the Foundation

Strength supports everything — from injury resilience to confidence and performance.

Individual Programming

No two clients train the same. Every programme is built around your goals, ability, and lifestyle.

Consistency Over Intensity

Real results come from repetition done well, not short bursts of effort.

 

This is why clients who have struggled in traditional gyms often succeed here.

Who I Work With

My coaching is designed for people who want more than generic training.

If you’re looking for random workouts or high-energy sessions without direction, this probably isn’t the right fit.

If you want to build strength properly and understand what you’re doing, you’re in the right place.

Most of my clients:

  • Are new to strength training

  • Are returning after injury or time away

  • Feel unsure or lack confidence in the gym

  • Want structure instead of guesswork

  • Value long-term progress over quick fixes

The Environment
