About Like Human · Kothrud, Pune

A studio built around being human.

Like Human is a personal training studio in Mayur Colony, Kothrud. Every client is assessed, coached one-to-one and progressed with intent, with nutrition and recovery support where it helps.

Why we exist

Not a conventional gym.

Most fitness experiences treat exercise as the whole story. But strength, energy and resilience are shaped by how you move, what you eat, how you recover, how you live — and even the spaces you spend time in.

Like Human was created to bring those pieces together. Every client starts with a conversation, not a sales pitch. From there we build coaching around your goals, your experience and your life — and adapt it as you progress.

The future of human performance is holistic. We think it should also feel personal, calm and genuinely human.

What we integrate

Five areas. One considered experience.

Each part of your plan informs the others. That integration — not any single service — is what makes Like Human different.

    Movement

    Strength, conditioning and movement quality, coached one-to-one and progressed with intent.

  • 03

    Recovery

    Sleep, breath and recovery habits — supported by EWOT, red light and hydrogen water at the studio.

  • 04

    Lifestyle

    Stress, schedules and sustainability. Plans that fit the life you actually live.
