Wellness: London’s Top Fitness Bloggers

London is a hot spot for fitness bloggers, ranging from personal trainers such as Faya Nilsson and Carly Rowena to sports fanatics like Lottie Murphy. We’ve searched the internet to find the best fitness bloggers in London to get you motivated and into the gym.

Madeleine Shaw

Hailing from Wandsworth, yoga instructor Madeleine Shaw set up her self-titled blog about five years ago. She shares her tips for staying healthy as well as recipes, reviews and travel guides.

Not only does Madeleine have more than 266,000 followers on Instagram alone, she has also released two books titled “Get the Glow” and “Ready, Steady, Glow”. They aim to encourage women to adopt a healthy lifestyle without resorting to dieting and starvation.

Lottie Murphy

If you pay Lottie Murphy’s blog a visit you can expect to find an abundance of tempting recipes, sample workouts and other motivating posts. Apart from being a blogger, Lottie is also a Pilates instructor, having fallen in love with the exercise when she was a teenager.

She holds classes in various locations around London and now runs a session we can highly recommend at the Active Living Room in Covent Garden every Thursday.

Faya Nilsson

Faya’s passion for healthy and unusual food encouraged her to start her own blog, Fitness On Toast, in 2013. It soon evolved into a hugely successful online platform where readers can find out more about nutrition and discover different training routines.

Faya also shares the latest in sports fashion and has written her own book called “Fit in 3: The Scandi Plan”, which she describes as being the “the original get fit slowly scheme”.

Scott Overall

If you’ve considered taking up running but have no idea where to begin then Scott Overall is your guy. Scott started running at the age of 14 and has competed in numerous cross country races and marathons, both in the UK and abroad.

He was close to racing in the 2016 Olympics but  fell ill and wasn’t selected for Team GB. Scott refused to give up and hopefully his story will encourage you to do the same.

Carly Rowena

If you’re an avid blog reader I’m sure you’ve heard of Carly Rowena. She’s the first name that comes to mind when thinking of fitness bloggers in London. Carly is your typical girl next door so it’s not surprising that she is considered one of the most influential bloggers and YouTubers.

Whether you’re looking to improve your diet or try new exercise routines, you know you can count on Carly.
