Ready…
Steady…
GO! ☄️
Dave. Fully committed to the cause. 👏
A three-photo masterclass in concentration, determination and absolutely sending it when it counts.
Absolutely no notes. 🖤

𝗕𝗟𝗢𝗖𝗞 𝟮𝟵: 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗦𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗬 & 𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗦 🏆
Six weeks of showing up, repeating the work and giving the programme a chance to do its job.
Across our GRAFT and BUILD classes, each training day follows its own progressive strength focus across the block - so we wanted to celebrate the people who kept coming back to the same day, week after week.
Welcome to the CONSISTENCY CLUB.
5/6+ appearances on the same training day earned you a place.
⭐ = a full 6/6 PERFECT BLOCK.
Because progress isn’t always one huge PB or dramatic breakthrough.
Sometimes it’s adding a little more load.
Moving better.
Feeling more confident.
Coming back after time away.
Or simply protecting that hour in your week and showing up for yourself.
And we’ve seen plenty of all of the above.
A huge shoutout to Tiahra, who returned to FORTIS after a couple of years away and has been incredibly consistent with Monday GRAFT.
In Week 1, an empty barbell felt challenging.
By Week 6? A 25KG PB.
But even better than the number was hearing how much she now looks forward to carving out that hour for herself each week - and how the support from coaches and members in class has lifted her up.
That is exactly what is all about. ♥️
Then there’s our newly formed 101.5KG HIP THRUST CLUB! 😮
Zoë ✨, Victoria Jenkinson and Meghan Goodeve all finished the block hitting 101.5KG - a 20KG increase each across six weeks!
Strong work, ladies. 🍑
Also new for Block 29 was our Log Board in the Members’ Snug - and we’ve loved seeing it fill up.
Members checking previous lifts, updating numbers as the weeks passed, comparing notes and celebrating each other’s progress.
A simple addition, but a pretty perfect reminder that progress is rarely one big moment.
It’s the little weeks of work adding up.
Block 29 - very, very well done. Onto the next… 👏

NEW THIS BLOCK: OUR LOG BOARD ✍️
One of our favourite additions to FORTIS over the past six weeks.
A simple board in the Members’ Snug - but it quickly became so much more than that.
A place for members to log lifts, check back on previous weeks, update numbers as the block progressed and celebrate the small wins that add up over time.
We’ve loved seeing people gathered around it after class:
comparing notes,
checking what they lifted last time,
encouraging each other to go again,
and watching progress become something visible.
Because that’s what training is, really.
Not one big moment.
Not one perfect class.
Just showing up, doing the work and building on it over time.
TOGETHER WE BUILD - literally. ♥️

Oh, HAY there 🌾👋
Whilst we don’t hop hay bales in classes, we’re sure you’ll agree they made a fun functional challenge back in June for our Birthday celebrations?! And make some pretty cool action shots too, right? 💪
Our next training block starts on Monday - new movements and new focuses throughout the timetable… maybe it’s your time to say “HAY there!”
We’d love to welcome you! 👋

WEEK 6 LIFTS 💪
It’s the start of the final week of our current training block, which means, if consistency has been there, the foundations have been laid, the progress has occurred, and this week we see what we’ve built 🏋️
And whilst we’re on the topic of heavy lifts - let’s rewind to these pretty epic lifts from The FORTIS GAMES 2026 💥
