Elemental Training

Elemental Training works out of its studio on Baselstrasse in Lucerne and puts strength training front and center. The thinking behind it: someone who loses weight while building muscle at the same time ends up strong and defined, not just lighter. The focus is on multifunctional basic exercises, alongside technique work and an individually planned program. Nutrition coaching is part of the approach too.

The studio is run by Tom Thoma, with Tamara Thoma working alongside him as a personal trainer. Besides classic personal training with weekly sessions, there's Power Coaching, which combines in-person meetings with unlimited video support for form checks. That way progress can be tracked between sessions too.

It's aimed at beginners with no prior experience as much as at seasoned trainees, covering everything from general fitness to powerlifting and bodybuilding. Getting in touch starts with a form, followed by a phone assessment and a consultation. The website is mostly in German.
