Aspire Coaching is a personal training studio in Watthana, conveniently located near the BTS Phrom Phong station and the EmQuartier mall. Aside from the typical physical fitness programs, it also offers lifestyle coaching, improving sleep and nutrition.

We’re glad to know that most of its clients find Aspire to be an amiable atmosphere—even much like a family composed of expert physical trainers and coaches ready to help you sustainably achieve your best self.

Its premises are very conducive for working out—technically considered a boutique gym! It’s also always clean and has the latest physical fitness equipment. 

We’re amused that some clients find the place always too cold for their liking.

For the nutrition coaching service, Aspire aims for plans most suited to an individual’s long-term lifestyle. It does this with several methods like strategic eating and sugar moderation.

The best thing about this nutrition coaching is that it also uses genetic blueprinting technology (DNA testing) to determine one’s ideal macro levels. It’s a perfect marriage of science and wellness, in our opinion.

We are also glad to know that you can have a free consultation with Aspire if you want to get your personalized nutrition plan. However, subscribing to Aspire’s physical training or nutrition plans is quite costly. 

Therefore, if you think that the cost outweighs the benefits, then Aspire Coaching could be one nutritionist you can try.

The LAB in Sukhumvit 24, near BTS Phrong Phong, is another boutique gym on our list. Fitness coach Richard Cohen established it in 2013.

The LAB is well-known for having a high standard of movement, strength, and conditioning training. It also offers one-to-one nutrition coaching (tied to its physical training programs or as a standalone for those who want to learn how to eat healthier). 

Each nutrition program it offers can go as short as four weeks or as long as 24 weeks. Pricing starts at THB 5000 up to THB 24,000, which might be too expensive for some people.

We’re satisfied with the provisions of the nutrition coaching, which include a 60 to 120-minute consultation for your personal goals and objectives and individualized macro and nutrition targets.

You’ll also get daily, weekly, and monthly communications with your nutrition coach. Programs are adjusted as needed.

If you want to take it all the way, you can also avail of the grocery shopping service for an additional fee. But we think it’s better to shop for groceries yourself if time is not an issue—it’s another physical and social activity!

We’re glad to know that many of The LAB’s past and current clients (especially those who do physical training, too) attest to the effectiveness of its nutrition coaching programs.

If you’re interested in joining The LAB’s nutrition coaching, we suggest you visit the gym personally instead of reaching out via social media or e-mail. This is because we are unsure about the gym’s consistency in answering inquiries on time.

Next on our list is CUBIC, a boutique gym in Pathumwan near BTS Chidlom. It looks very hip with its black and yellow aesthetic, which tells us that the owners of this gym value the small details. 

We appreciate that their thoroughness shows not just in the aesthetics of their place. The quality of training and coaching programs for fat loss and muscle building in CUBIC are very impressive in our books!

Due to its great vibe and a good mix of programs, we noticed that it’s pretty popular with young adults for its group HIIT and spin classes. 

However, aside from its personal training programs and other classes, it also offers a nutrition coaching program that you can add to your existing CUBIC membership.

CUBIC’s registered dietitian (RND) can prepare a menu or nutritional plan that fits your body’s needs for as low as THB 2,800 monthly. In addition, the RND will check your progress via video calls weekly.

If you’re already a CUBIC member, you can be sure that your meal plan is perfectly tailored only to you. The gym’s analysis of your measurements, body composition, and posture is undoubtedly referenced in your program.

With a meal plan on hand, you’re free to make it into reality. You can also subscribe to a full meal delivery service that CUBIC might offer for an additional fee.

However, doing the latter will be more expensive than making a grocery run and cooking your meals.

Natalia Malovana (Talia) is a personal yogi and a certified nutrition coach based in the Asoke district, the heart of Bangkok. She does yoga classes for groups and individuals, especially those in their 30s or 40s, on a regular schedule or by appointment.

Talia’s nutrition coaching service is perfect for people looking for ways to lose weight or just desiring to become healthier. The ultimate goal in her classes is to gradually change bad eating habits to lose weight and become healthier naturally.

Her overall approach emphasizes good nutrition without any diets or restrictions on food, which we truly love because we are tired of restricting ourselves to achieve the perfect body. 

Moreover, we found that her teaching style is fantastic. She encourages and helps her clients go beyond their comfort zones to achieve results.

Talia’s nutritional coaching package is available in two variants. 

The first is the Rudimentary, a one-time assessment of your eating habits for a THB 3,200 fee. The second package is the Essential, which consists of a custom program assessed weekly and billed THB 8,400 monthly or for a custom amount for longer subscriptions.

Talia also offers corporate packages or group nutrition sessions. Be sure to check out her social media pages for these!

Many of Talia’s current and former students have seen results in how they eat and the state of their bodies. We’re glad her programs seem sustainable in the long run, even though she established her wellness business only a few years back.

Fitfoodfriendly is a fitness and nutrition service owned and operated by Kunjae Rattanakorn, also known as KJ or Jae. She is based in the Ratchathewi district of Bangkok.

Jae is a certified personal trainer and certified nutrition coach educated in the US and Canada. She has taught abroad for around three years, which we found impressive.

Her main product is her 28-day Training to lose body fat and gain a shapely figure. This program involves exercise and calorie counting (but not restricting what you eat!) and is mainly done online through videos, detailed nutrition guides, or ebooks.

There are many packages available for her 28-day program. The cheapest one costs around THB 3,000 for four weeks, primarily through communication via Line.

On the other hand, the most expensive package—in-person coaching, may cost around THB 30,000 for 12 one-hour sessions. These and any package in between have varying frequencies of updates and levels of personalisation. 

If you want a ready-made nutrition guide, you can buy Jae’s ebook, which has more than 15 menus you can whip up at home, costing THB 799.

One downside to Fitfoodfriendly is that it’s still a young business, established only in 2020. Nevertheless, clients laud Jae for her beginner-friendly exercises. 

Ultimately, we hope this positive trend continues as her business continues to provide reliable services to those in Bangkok.
