At The Gym Group we’re honouring Black History Month by passing the mic to black artists.​

This year’s theme is ‘time for change: action not words,’ and signifies not only a time to acknowledge the contributions of black people within the UK, but for continued action to ensure black history and people are represented within media and wider society.​

At The Gym Group we want to provide an opportunity to uplift black voices, celebrating a selection of both up & coming and established black artists in a playlist for our members.

You can listen and download The Gym Group’s Black History Month playlist by clicking the link in the bio of our national account .​

We understand that the gym can be an intimidating space and our recent survey revealed that 1 in 3 Brits feel self-conscious at the gym. At The Gym Group, we want to support you in your journey and help you conquer gym intimidation.

Pulling a funny gym face?

Gym groupers, we've got news for you...let's welcome those gym faces with open arms (or open eyes).

Evidence suggests that those involuntary face pulls are actually designed to improve performance, for example, jaw clenching can increase grip strength by up to 16% (who would've guessed it!)

So how does it work, you may ask? When the area of the brain that's responsible for these facial expressions is firing up, this can prime other areas of the brain which are responsible for your other moving parts, how cool.

Gym Face > Straight Face any day
