For Nick Lower, fitness has always been more than just exercise—it’s about empowering people to move better, feel stronger, and build lasting habits. With over 15 years of experience as a personal trainer, Nick has worked with everyone from beginners to Hollywood stars, continuously refining his approach to offer bespoke coaching that delivers real results.
Personal Trainer to Community Builder
Nick’s journey started in 2009 when he founded re:bourne fitness & nutrition. Over the years, he earned a reputation as a trusted trainer, even working with Simon Pegg to prepare for physically demanding film roles. However, Nick’s own life challenges and a personal health battle reshaped his approach to coaching and deepened his belief in the power of resilience.
“That experience changed my perspective completely,” he says. “It reinforced the importance of resilience, of focusing on both body and mind, and how fitness can be life-changing in so many ways.” Through his own journey, Nick has not only come back stronger, and even more determined to make a positive impact.
Apex Pilates & Personal Training: A Dream Realised
In May 2024, Nick opened Apex Pilates & Personal Training in the village of Litlington, just outside Royston. Set against a stunning countryside backdrop, Apex isn’t just a fitness studio; it’s a space where people can thrive, not just physically, but emotionally too. “When people come to Apex, they’re not just training their bodies—they’re developing resilience and confidence,” Nick explains.
Nick’s calming, knowledgeable, and reassuring coaching, making clients feel at ease as they work through reformer Pilates or small group personal training. He focuses on making sure each person feels supported in their fitness journey, no matter their starting point. With big plans for the future, Nick is determined to make Apex the leading pilates and personal training studio in the region. “This is just the beginning,” he says. “I want Apex to be a place where people grow stronger in every way, and I’m excited to continue watching our community thrive.”
