Highlights from runner workout this week 🔥

Some press up highlights from our last 8 week block of training. Always super pleased and proud to see the progression from banded press ups all the way through to weighted for reps. The key....consistency, timely progression and managing training volumes. Our next 8 week block on the Stronger 6 programme starts on May 25th, we have some availability if you want to join our awesome community.

Trap Bar Deadlift. At the end of our current block on the Stronger Six Programme we had 29 athletes improve their Trap Bar Deadlift best by an average of 15%. Super proud of these guys and their hard work over this course. There were numerous PBs across the board as our participants learnt how to move more efficiently and with intent.

We monitor our key lifts such that participants receive real time feedback regarding their performance. Many participants lifted heavier over the 6 weeks. This is an obvious improvement, either in technique, strength gains or coordination. Either way many were lifting heavier weights or moving the same weight faster.

Gym refurb completed. Around this time every couple of years I like to change things up a little. Invest in some new kit, paint something, move something etc etc.....overall pretty pleased with the result.

Real time feedback !!! Loving the sensors and the depth of data we're getting. I love data, especially meaningful data which either empowers the athlete to move better and / or with more intent. Or which informs the decision making process such that we train the things that are important. Are you tired of guessing with your training or not getting any feedback in terms of performance ? We've got limited slots for a few more athletes if you want to take your performance to the next level.

The Stronger 6 - Small group strength and conditioning classes. Next cohort starts Monday 20th October. 6 weeks, 6 movements to master in an awesome community. We've had tonnes of PBs in this current cohort, largely down to the new tech we've been using. Our athletes are now getting stronger, moving better and with more intent with objective instant feedback of the key movements we're coaching. Link to book in bio.

Calling all runners !!!! Are you race ready ? Perhaps you've entered a marathon, half or 5k for 2026. Or perhaps you're at the start of your running journey ? Either way are you strong and resilient enough for the training volumes ahead ?

We're offering 4 runners the chance to come to our facility for a thorough testing session where we'll measure key performance metrics for running. Maximal strength, reactive strength, stability and range of movement will be assessed using our Output Sports monitors. Essentially we'll give you valuable insights into your physical capacities required for running and whether you may be at risk of overuse injury due to imbalances.

After your session we'll then offer you an 8 week online programme to help you increase your running strength. This will be either home or gym based depending on your own circumstances.

Cost of all of this is just £50. We have limited slots available on Saturday October18th at 8.30am. Reserve your spot now to take your running to the next level !!!
